There is no prohibition against men and women sitting next to each other. However, if the questioner is asking why men and women do not sit together in Orthodox synagogues, the reason for this is to prevent individuals from being distracted from praying. If, for example, a husband and wife were to sit next together, they might spend their time thinking about each other instead of prayer and HaShem.
