A good friend sure, but there are some people that I consider little more then good acquaintances that other might call friends. I also have a couple of friends that make horrible relationship decisions, that part of their life has no effect on me so it never bothers me, but I wouldn't trust them to give the respect I would feel is due of a family member.BonsaiK said:If your sister has a boyfriend and it's one of your friends, that's great.heyheysg said:My group of friends were discussing this recently, with different opinions.

Wouldn't you rather she go out with a good friend of yours who you know is going to treat her well, instead of some random asshole?
Even in a worst case scenario, an acquaintance who is known to be dodgy is better than a stranger.

Would I throw a fit if my sister decided to date a friend? No way, I might tell her about what I thought of them in a relationship but it is up to her to heed my counsel or not. I don't control her life. The inevitable break up would be a sure fire way to lose a friend however as there is little to no chance of me taking a friends side over my sisters.
Same here. And if they try they"ll be thrown in the 4chan party van.SpAc3man said:My sister is 8 years younger than me so no way in the fiery depths of eternal hell am I letting a friend date my nearly 11 year-old sister
