Can men and women ever just be friends?

Answer 1

Yes. But it may take work. Hormones change and you start to feel that good feeling whenever your around the opposite sex. You may think it's love but it's just pleasure And yes, most definitely! Just because two people are different in that way doesn`t mean they can`t be friends. But not all the time it will take work, friends are friends but it can depend on what you do and say around those friends.

Answer 2

Just a very few men and women can be friends after a relationship, but normally one, the other or both simply want to move on because one is usually still in love with the other. To see their ex partner going and coming on dates is like pouring salt in an open wound. If it were me I'd rather just move on and leave the past in the past. Marcy Yes, once they have honestly and boldly addressed and dealt with the attraction concerns. If either person has some kind of hidden agenda, it will not work, because friendships are always built on truth and honesty. Yes but these are unique relationships in which both parties will probably have to be strong and committed to having a friendship in that, sometimes one may end up with a significant other who won't want them to be friends because they are insecure. But that is when you have to know that relationships come and go but good true friends are hard to find and when you find one you can't let insecure most often temporary people come in between the friendship. Just because you can't be friends with your ex is no reason to stop your significant other from having friends. Most times it can be beneficial to the new relationship because that other woman or man may be able to help your partner understand some of the things that they normally wouldn't understand. So I encourage anyone if you find a true friend in someone hold onto that friendship forever.

Answer 3

Yes they can. I've had male friends (2 of them) since high school so that makes our friendship over 40 years. I also have other male friends that come for dinner and my husband has some female friends that we also invite over. Usually when young love and friendship can mesh. Good marriages are based on (of course physical attraction) friends first and falling in love. Yes. But you never know if it's going to turn into something else. Most male friends become attracted to their female friends over a period of time. Or sometimes, they only become your friend to try to get a farther relashonship with you.

Answer 4

Yes why not women make good friends that's what my son told me he said girls r better friends then boys

ANSWER:

Definitely can. Sometimes we choose the kind of friends we would like to have for safety reason. To teen agers you will notice that when their in high school, they make lots of friends. I have a son in high school and his in the band. He have more female friends than male friends. It also goes with the college kids, because I have 2 daughters who's in college and they have lots of friends, especially boys.

Now for adult like us we can also have male friends and vice versa. If you are married and your work place have women's that's also account as your friends, and goes to woman's too.

Answer 5

Of course! I have many friends that are boys. If people make fun of you for it than tell them they are uncool for not having friends of mixed genders. So long as you are hanging out with people who you get on well with, it doesn't matter what gender they are.
