I think this is a stupid question that shouldn't have to come up if you're not in some kind of breath sucking relationship. Is this some sort of adolescent thing, having to make a choice? You should continue to have friends if you have an S/O. Ideally, everyone is on the same page. If your friends don't like your S/O, that could be a bad sign... or it might also be sour grapes or a tad of jealousy. If your S/O doesn't like your friends, there needs to be a heart-to-heart and some real honesty going on. If the reasons are valid (they are creepy, drug-addicted ex-cons who take advantage of you regularly, for instance) then maybe that is reasonable.
Bear in mind that isolation from friends and family is a sign of grooming in domestic abuse situations.
I also had an S/O who drove all my friends off by hitting on them. Nobody told me anything until we broke up. Please, if my ratfink boyfriend is making the move on you, don't worry I'll be mad at you for it, I'm not a bitch queen. That's one of those little things I should know.
