CAN MEN & WOMEN BE FRIENDS?

Wow.....that title and question is a blog all by itself, don't you think? I searched for topics to blog about today and even sought out feedback on the winner: Can Men & Women Be Friends?

My answer: I think that it is possible for men and women to be friends as long as it's an honest friendship. Now several sources today admitted of playing the friendship role after all other attempts failed. That is odd and creepy to me a little bit. I have very special male friends and some are even my bff's. I trust them completely and let my girly guards down and enjoy the friendship bond we share. So it would be hard for me to view them as anything else other than my friend. I hear this "settle for friend" approach from the guys pretty much but I wouldn't dare count the ladies out of feeling this way too. I wonder why is that?.......The logical foundation for building a relationship with someone is to become friends first......so why is it so difficult (for me at least) to turn a friendship into a potential relationship?

I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic.......................

  1. Just wanted to inform you guys that the majority of the feedback I encountered yesturday, was that, YES......men and women could be friends!!! Some people said generally that as long as the two individuals respected the friendship bond. I got tickled pink at one response that said men and women can be friends as long as they both aren't attractive. So there you have it guys and gals..........
