What was the idea in that movie? That men and women can't be friends because sex gets in the way?
Is that totally true?
My best friend is a guy. He is actually an ex boyfriend, so maybe we already solved the problem by getting the sex out of the way in the beginning?
We have a great friendship. He is one of the only people that gets me. I explain my relationship with him as soulmates, but friendly ones. We were supposed to be in each others lives, we just weren't supposed to BE together.
All of this has lead me to think about my friendships with people. I used to have a lot of guy friends, I was just one of the guys, they never looked at me like a girl . I was ok with this. I was very much a tom boy and didn't fit with the girls.
But now ... most of my friends are women, mothers actually. Mothers of my daughters friends.
Is it weird to have guy friends now at this point?
Is it a great piece of gossip, or is it just a couple of people talking?
I had a conversation with a dad at the park. At the end of the conversation he gave me his email and said we should continue chatting. At first I didn't think anything of this. Sure why not? We were having a great conversation about kids and books and life. But then a wave of guilt came over me and kept me up most of the night. As adults when you want to extend a conversation like that is it with the intent of more?
