Can friendship exist between men and women?

in english •  7 years ago 

Much is said is spoken and commented on the friendship that can be between a man and a woman, which is something impossible and although despite research, studies and millions of opinions on the subject today is still unknown and nobody owns the truth.

In my opinion in most cases everything begins in the thought of each individual especially in the man and the true intention to which he approaches a woman, with this I do not mean that there can not be a nice friendship between a man and a woman.

The subject is delicate and my way of thinking is, to be able to have a good friendship with a man you have to think like them and try to understand what their true intentions are, some come from heartbreak and perhaps need advice or tips that a man could never give, others want to take advantage of your sorrows to fake a friendship, when the reality of their intentions are others may have retractors on the subject but this and commented are their own experiences, friends and family because it is an extremely common case.

I have good friends that until today have behaved to the height, as there are also those who always look for something else, because they believe they have the world in their hands that kind of man I'm sure never but never have a good friendship with some woman because thanks to their ego they will always be in search of something more and not all women are willing to what these gentlemen want.

The friendship between a man and a woman if there can be, perhaps few men can control their hormones but there are or at least can control them and hide what is said is the nature of man, for us women a good friend is of great value because there are few who can offer it without something after fund

Friends, the only thing I can tell you is that not all men go with a double purpose when they say they would like to have a good friendship but if, for the most part, I do not say it, my experiences tell me.

Its possible but feelings may develop and leads to affection.

I loved how it started without putting a blame on a certain gender.
Then when the tone changed to mostly telling men have hidden agendas... I felt attacked for a second... Until I realized that a blog is written from the perspective and experience of the person writing it, in this case female.
Other than that (I wish I could... I really do...) I can't deny that indeed there are plenty of men have ulterior motives...

I've always had more female friends then I had male friends (heck... my male friends I can count on one hand...) I don't know how this came to be nor why it still is...
Fair is fair, obviously I have had feelings or felt attraction for a couple of them... (I am straight after all...) but towards the rest never.
I am not a guest friendly person, so whenever a friend would sleep over I was not sleeping on the couch... So they always got the option to either sleep on the couch or share the bed with me.
Usually they all pick sharing the bed, I always took this as them knowing me well enough that I would treat them as I'd treat any other friend (male or female) and not do a damn thing.

The only problem I have with having mostly female friends is partners... (be it mine, or be it theirs). Partners that don't believe a normal friendship can exist between females and males.

I think this mindset comes from seeing men and women as different. To a man a female is female, to a female a male is a male. Yet if they would see a person as just a person... friendship would be possible.

A friendship should be based on a person digging the vibe or the mindset of a different person. Nothing more nothing less... If people think like that than such a friendship would be possible
