I'd like to know what if a girl wrote "есть друг" in her marital status, what does this mean?

1Do ask the girl. Maybe she means you, and that is not a linguistic question.– ElenaCommented Feb 4, 2019 at 11:02

5that will most likely mean having a boyfriend, but since people can write whatever, you cannot know for sure– Баян Купи-каCommented Feb 4, 2019 at 11:36

In russian VK(smth like fb) we have only this variant to say "I have a boyfriend"– A. MiraCommented Feb 8, 2019 at 7:55

@Elena It is a linguistic question - the person asking it does not know the meaning of the word in the particular context. And it does really appear on people's profiles in vkontakte.– wonderingCommented Feb 9, 2019 at 17:08

That is an odd way to phrase it, but in this context, it probably means she is not single. Barring an odd sense of humor, "друг" most likely means "boyfriend" here.
