Personally, I think it's ridiculous that he's letting his ex dictate who he can have as a friend! Just because a male and female are "friends" does it also mean they're romantically involved? NO Can't we teach kids that it's ok to have a platonic relationship like that? Does it always have to be a romantic relationship? Good grief. That ex is jealous, and she's teaching the kids the wrong thing. Obviously she'll only "ok" male friends (maybe). Life isn't always like that.

Your friend should stand up to her and tell her to mind her own business. He should be able to be friends with whomever he chooses. But looks like he's going to defer to her wishes, so looks like you've lost. I'm sorry. He needs more of a backbone. I doubt the divorce decree says that he can't have female friends.

I'm sorry this happened. Take care & God bless. Hugs,Lee
