What's so funny? Just because you can't fathom an opposite sex platonic friendship doesn't mean other people can't.

Usually when people are given a reason to test someone's interest they do it

No. Immature people play these games. And why do you need to test her anyway? She hasn't been playing games with you so why are you playing games with her?

If they are really close friends, then it's possible they are just friends.

If the roles were reversed, OP was a girl and it was a guy travelling for the girl I would say the circumstances would be a little different.

You've been on 3 dates, instead of getting in a hissy fit over something you shouldn't... just go with the flow.

When my husband and I were in a relationship, which he let a long-time female friend know about, she sent him a text asking him if he could come over to her place alone on a Friday night to 1) hang stuff from her ceiling, 2) have dinner with her, 3) watch tv, 4) stay up late talking, 5) sleep on her couch, and 6) go out for breakfast the following morning. I let him know that I was not comfortable with that situation.

He did not go.

She was upset, and due to that, she did not speak to him for months.

We became engaged roughly 5 months later. This was in 2012.

We got married in 2013

So I am not sure what to make of this and deciding whether or not I should still take her seriously. She shows me interest and calls and send good morning texts so the interest is there but this visit to see a friend doesn't sound right. What do you think ladies? I didn't want to pry too much but all she said was it's a friend she went to college with. Also when I was trying to imply something she sounded like she was about to get annoyed with me so I backed off. But then again I don't want to believe she would be telling me about this trip if she knows I have interest in dating her.
Are you serious? You're not even dating, have no official reltionship to speak of, never mind a monogamous one, and you get bent out of shape because she's going to see a friend?

Run away as fast as you can.

There's no way you can verify that she is speaking the truth.

Get out before you find out too much.

Quit trying to make something out of nothing, quit implying anything that you have no basis to imply and quit trying to control what she does.
If you keep on with any of this it will show her that you already do not trust her and she will move on quickly, which she should do.
If a woman is married or in a relationship, then having same sex friends is a no-no.

See guys, women always keep their options open and are always seeing a guy most of the time.

Trust me, that the girl you spoke to online has a back up plan that might not include you.

Yes, the guy she is seeing could be a former lover, or a guy she is planning to hook up with.

Don't fall victim to the game.

Respect the game or the game will get you.

Do you mean opposite sex friends instead of same sex friends?

I hope so.
