The question is: Can men and women really be friends?
|
Sure I guess it’s possible if each of you enjoy a lot of frustration in your life. I have two stories related to this. One time I had this “girlfriend” who basically did a lot for me: helping me clean up my room, taking me out to lunch all the time, buying me stuff etc. now the problem was I was to naive to realize what was going on basically its like I got suckered into a relationship. It was really weird and it took me way to long to figure out what was going on, until she sabotaged two of my relationships. That was pretty much the wake up call and I had to do a freeze out, to get her out of my life. The other involves me perusing a girl who already had a boyfriend. I did the standard were friends so it’s ok for us to talk on the phone and hang out all the time. It was to the point where she would always complain to me about him and of course I would always take her side. Eventually I got my opening with the “I wish he was more like you…” Now this probably makes me a total jerk and its true I probably am but that’s life. So if two single people of the opposite sex are friends it’s not big deal but if your girlfriend/boyfriend has those friends who are way to touchy feely/needy that’s a huge warning sign. Whenever im friends with a girl who’s already committed its like im on deck just waiting for my turn. Now this in no way represents men’s feelings on friendship, just my own personal ones.
As far as the gossip situation goes who cares if they think you’re a tease, its better then being known as a slut. If anything at least the reputation will automatically filter out any guys that are looking for the sure thing. Gossip sucks but that’s just what it is gossip, I hear something everyday and its process to separate the truth from the crap but that’s just the way it goes
