man and woman platonlc friendship??? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. riyasam (10790)   ranked 33 out of 12,309 in friend1 month ago

my hubby and me are usually at war over this statement he says men are from Mars and women from Venus, agreed that there is friction between the two and that romantic feelings and sexual attraction are bound to creep-in between.
but i say,man and woman can be just friend, true friends forever......we can be ourselves with gud friends, we don't need to pretend as sometimes we do in love.
which argument do you think gets a upper hand here???

that there is friction between the two and that romantic feelings and sexual attraction are bound to creep-in between

so does that mean then that every woman who is in his life he has romantic feelings for or is sexually attracted to??? I doubt it.....

I have ALWAYS had several male friends and there has NEVER BEEN any sexual or romatic attraction....these guys are my buds and like brothers to me end of story..


myLot reputation of 86/100. Ravenladyj (17909)   ranked 272 out of 12,309 in friend  1 month ago

Let me correct myself..I shouldnt say NEVER because there were a couple BUT the attraction was there BEFORE we became friends..and the few who I did sleep with we had a friends with benefits deal goin on it was no relationship or any desire for one and actually we are still friends to this day, we just dont sleep together anymore..

i do agree with what you say,my best friend is a male!!


myLot reputation of 86/100. Ravenladyj (17909)   ranked 272 out of 12,309 in friend  1 month ago

Most of my friends have been guys over the yrs and during each stage of my life (childhood, teen yrs and adult yrs) I've always had a few guys who were my best friends....I just got along better with guys than i ever did girls...probably becuase I've always been a major tomboy LOL

a man and a woman can have a plantonic relationship. most of my best buds are male and i never fell in love with them. they are just like my brothers and they treat me like a sister. but i guess this is just from a females point of view. because from a man's point of view, there is always the possibility of falling for the said "friend". but speaking from my experience, it is definitely possible.

I believe it's possible to be just friends, apart form the occasional drunken snog.
even though a lot of my friends end up together, it has more to do with them knowing each other for a long time then actual attraction.

wink I don't see anything wrong in having male friends even if one is in total confine of a secured marriage. Marriage should not make us the property of our spouse and neither should we surrender our individual rights. I can't say of where friendship with the opposite gender might lead us but if everything is running well in the home front there is no reason to go astray. confused

I believe there can be true friendship between men and women. But both parties must be there to keep it as pure friendship. Its true we don't have much control about the way we think or feelings creep in. But true friendship can be there.

yupi know by experience,a pastor who is a close friend of ours solved a marital problem of a couple,in doing so the lady in question became very friendly with thepastor which was not taken kindly by the wife which lead to split in the pastors family.

I use to think that men and women could be just friends with no sexual attraction but life in my case has proven me wrong, with long association any man can become attractive in a sexual way and with men these seems to be even more true.

happyit varies from person to person.a person should be ale to respect his relationships and not take anything for granted!!

yup - and more women can handle it than any 'heterosexual' man..

women LOVE having man friends with extras - that is one bet you could clean up with at the table..

But the guy? Hmmmm - nope, only if he already has a steady lover at home. Then it cam work fine.

"with OUT extras" that should say

Hi riyasam, from a woman's perspective - yes. U can have beautiful platonic friendships, and they are very long lasting. Somebody who can find instant quick fix to any problem that u might otherwise be having with ur romantic partner.
