To think it's not unreasonable

To stop hugging your male friend goodbye once you have a partner? Just dont feel its appropriate but he called me out on it earlier and asked me if he had done something wrong

Lol this is so weird - I go out and even sleep over at my male friends houses regularly and my husband doesn't have any issues - am also very affectionate with all of my friends male and female - nothing changed become i met someone!

Husband has lots of female friends too - has stayed over at their houses on occasion and goes out with them all the time to various things!

I've had male friends that disappear off every time they have a girlfriend and then come crawling back when it doesn't work out - I've no time for these people that drop you like that tbh

I don’t believe male and female friendships are ever purely platonic

That’s sad.

DH and I have a shared hobby (special MN vagueness there 😉 ) with some long term friends. These are people I’ve been friends with for longer than the 30+ years I’ve been with DH. DH wasn’t feeling great yesterday so stayed home while I went along to this hobby (it involves power tools and me dressing in scruffy clothes) where I was the only female present. My DH wasn’t bothered, the guys’ DWs (and one DH) weren’t bothered and I hugged them all on arrival and at saying goodbye. 100% platonic. But then DH and I have been together a long time and know we can trust each other 100%.
