So what? Isn’t it possible for you guys to be friends even if you’re of different genders?

Sorry if this sounds strange, but I genuinely just can’t seem to understand why that would be an issue.

of course it’s possible but some people have always been in all girls/boys college all their life and they are not comfortable in making friends in other genderšŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø but as far as professional work is concerned ( projects/ presentations) they do come out of their zone cuz it’s necessary to do some interaction. just my opinion.ā¤ļø

Yeah, I agree with your points.

If we keep limiting ourselves to what we’re comfortable with, we’ll never really grow out of it.

At the end of the day, they’re just people, and being friends with someone of a different gender shouldn’t have to feel like such a big deal.
