friends

In this weeks readings I found it interesting that there was not more saqid about cross sex friendships. I was expecting to read more about this topic. I have found in my experience that men and women cannot be "just friends." I beleive this because I have seen so much happen between men and women in friendship wise that it is not possible. Men can't help but to flirt with the oppisite sex and women can't help but to respond, unless of course one dislikes the other. I have been through this situation and the book is right, if someone is in a relationship with some else then they get jealous and over think or misjudge the situation. By this time you fight argue or have very uncomfortable feelings when that person is around. This goes for both sexes. I myself have more guy friends then I do girlfriends but I think this might be because I have 3  young adult children. I just seem to get along with men better. I feel as though this is because I hate drama and don't like to talk about other people. I have a few girlfriends and all we do when we are together is talk about drama. When I am with my guy friends we talk about sports and fishing and thigs of that nature. My dad was a fishermen and I like sports, especially football. i have always been around men or boys my whole life but you get a girlfriend involved it just ends up with someones feelings hurt and I don't like doing that. Hope it makes since it is just how I feel and what I think. men and women are different species and I truely beleive this.
