Can Men And Women Truly Be Friends?

Friday, May 4th, 2012

I was talking to one of my friends this morning on my drive in, and we were having a discussion about whether men and women could only be “FRIENDS.” We are both married, and agree that only a small percentage of opposite sex friends have HONESTLY never crossed the line. We aren’t talking about the male “FRIEND” that you slept with in college, and now all of a sudden it never happened since you were at school in Chicago and now you reside in Orlando where no one knew of the relationship. And guys we definitely aren’t talking about the “FRIEND” who helped you through your break-up!

But what we do disagree on is this: Is it alright for a married person to become “FRIENDS” with someone of the opposite sex AFTER they are married? THOUGHTS?????

Your Ex has a name also!!

When you get into your 30′s you nearly forget about all the people that you have exchanged some type of emotion with. I thought about it, and laughed at the fact that when talking to male or female friends many of us have names for our ex mates/lovers/spouses. I didn’t even realize that I had given many of them one, but when you catch up with old friends and they ask you about someone you may have been dating way back when the name comes up and the laughs start. I remember some of the names that my friends and I gave some of my ex’s, there was Crazy, Gansta-Land, City Girl, Bartender, etc. The crazy part is that all of your friends will forever remember this person as the nickname you gave them and refer to them as such. I’m sure I’m not the only one who gave my ex’s nicknames. Thoughts?
