IS IT WRONG? - when you have friends who are girls??

[shredmaster]

i'll make this short and sweet. *i have a girlfriend and we're cool most of the time. *i also have a couple good friends who are girls whom i haven't seen in over a year due to many things...guitar, band, work, video production stuff i do, hangin' on jemsite, etc. *i'm always busy. *

anyway, i have a feeling that if i went out for coffee or a drink with them there would be an issue. *of course i want to tell my girlfriend but i don't want issues. *she totally knows i would never cheat or sneak around and i never have with anyone! *i was raised to never do that to anyone and always do to others what you would want done to you. *long story short, i really miss these girls...there are only really 2 that i am good friends with....

i would love to just go xmas shopping with them or just out to coffee. *now, don't think that i'm whipped in any way (or even battered or fried for that matter)...... i don't take a backseat to anyone, never have. *i just don't want to hurt anyone. *i put everyone before me usually. *now my GF knows for sure nothing would happen but at the same time, i have mentioned it to her and she said YEAH OF COURSE IT'S COOL,,,WHAT A DUMB QUESTION. *yeah, until i do it... right?

so, is it wrong to just go out after work for coffee and say i went to guitar center or something? *that sounds so bad. *i just don't want to deal with unecessary BS. *or i could say this.....

ME; i'm going with jen for coffee tonight.
HER; who's jen
ME; a friend i haven't seen in over a year.
HER; i guess, can i go with you guys and hang out? *
ME; well, it's like a friends night out.
HER; well if it's no big deal and if she knows you have a GF then why can't i go?
ME; *cuz it's just me and her, friends night out, just like you have girls night out. *i haven't seen her in a year. *
HER; *so you want to be alone with her then.....

i'm sure we have all been there onstage and then after the show a chick comes up and says how much she liked the show. *then she leaves, pack up my guitar, and the GF says... what the hell was that about? *you know what i'm sayin'?

so anyway, what are your takes on this? *have you been there, and what did you do?
