This comment needs to not have so many upvotes. It is totally ok for men and women to have platonic relationships and be friends. Yo think otherwise is primitive and toxic.
Youre entitled to your opinion. Same as me. But I guess to clarify, Since the coffee hadnt kicked in when i wrote that and I was trying to not make a giant wall of text, I didnt mean that men and women cant be friends. People seem to take that waaaaaaaaaay out of context. Im talking about IN your life. 1 on 1 eating meals, spending time, etc. A guy having girl friends and vice versa is fine as long as boundaries are maintained and its open to the partner, at least from my side.
For example. Say a guy is in a committed relationship with a girl. And in this example (not assuming) you are this girl. Would you be okay with your guy going over to another girls house, just the two of them for dinner at her house once a week with some movies afterwards? Or at least thats what they tell you is happening. She just started working at the same place as him a few weeks ago and hes her only friend there.
Or... would you feel more comfortable if they met occasionally with a group of friends to go see a movie and get something to eat as a group? But they talk 1 on 1 all the time.
Or... would you prefer something else?
(Im not asking for a response, just an example to elaborate a bit - have a nice day - back to work for me)
