NeuroTypical Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Heh. So: Women all kid themselves. Men can turn even a simple question into an argument they have to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prisonchaplain Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 Actually a man and a woman can be friends. You can only have one, though, and you have to get married to him/her first. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annewandering Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 well you can be friends before marriage but if no marriage then no. ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
applepansy Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 I've decided I will never understand "why" men can't put the attraction aside and be friends with women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prisonchaplain Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 I've decided I will never understand "why" men can't put the attraction aside and be friends with women. We probably can. However, wives get jealous, and both society and the church see their concerns as legitimate. Besides, most men harbor grandiose visions of running for President some day.

JudoMinja Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Wow. That is actually really interesting- that the women pretty much universally answered "yes" and only changed their answer upon closer inspection of how their "guy friends" likely harbored deeper feelings. And the guys all answered no.... I wonder if its an anomoly, or if we'd see similar results if this were turned into an actual study...

slamjet Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Sure, men can be friends with a woman who has a "great personality" (yes, that's man-code). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Most of my bestest of friends are guys. No, they're not attracted to me. No, I'm REALLY friends with them. Yes, one of them don't talk to me anymore because his wife forbade him (even called me a husband-stealing vulture in an email and copied a bunch of my male friends including my husband)...

NeuroTypical Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 Two possibilities: 1- She was seeing things in her husband that were not there. 2- She was seeing things in her husband that were there. It sounds like you're very invested in believing #1 and rejecting #2. But I'm thinking #2 doesn't get rejected as easily as you'd like.

But I'm thinking #2 doesn't get rejected as easily as you'd like.I'm best friends with the guy since we were 12. So, no. It's not #2. You're forgetting #3 - she's of the opinion that people of the opposite gender who spend a lot of time talking on the phone can never REALLY be just friends. Unfortunately, there are quite a lot of people (some in this forum even) that are of the same opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 You may be his long time friend, but she's his forever companion. If she's not comfortable, she gets the say. Your friend is a smart guy to put his marriage first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your friend is a smart guy to put his marriage first.I agree... for the most part. She's not the only one that has a say. Her husband has one too. Me - I don't get a say. I get to take the high ground and stay out of it, even if it hurt me as well, and even when the attack was directed straight at me and indirectly at my husband.
