Men And Women: Is It Really Possible To Be Just Friends?

It’s widely debated and argued that it is not at all possible for a man and a woman to be just friends. You have either heard or been a part of the discussion that a man and woman can’t just be friends unless one of them is physically unattractive. Men usually are always the ones stating this. They feel for instance, that when a woman refers to her male friend as her “bro”, that she is lying and that her “bro” would definitely have sex with her if the opportunity permitted itself. So, is it really possible to be just friends?

IT IS POSSIBLE FOR A MAN AND WOMAN TO BE JUST FRIENDS!

We live in a generation where people don’t believe in one another’s genuineness and even honesty, so the idea of a man and woman being just friends is a hard concept to believe in and accept.

Yes, it’s in a man’s nature to desire and pursue a woman which is why people think that our two species can’t just be friends with one another.

However, it’s indeed very much so possible for a true friendship to occur between a man and woman that doesn’t involve anything sexual.

I personally have a good number of friends that are men and I call them my brothers.

And I can say for certainty that we are not attracted to each other at all. None of us are unattractive and we all possess great qualities and personalities; we just don’t see each other in that way.

Now, the argument between people always states how it’s against our “nature” to see an attractive man/woman and not instantly want to jump their bones. That all has some truth to it but, if a man and woman get to talking long enough, they either realize they would be better as a couple or friends.

It really is so incredibly lame and whack how people feel that men and women cannot be friends unless there is some type of physical problem or one of them “has to be” gay. It shows how immensely closed-minded people are when they debate this, and how their reasons why are extremely shallow!

So yes people, men and women can be friends even when both are physically beautiful and heterosexual :insert rolling eyes emoji:
