I have friends of both genders, males and females. I am more closer to a few of my guy friends that females. The reason? I don't know. For years now, I was very comfortable with the guys. In fact, I was literally told a few times that I was not a girl, but a guy. I never ever felt sexually threatened among my friends. We were just that friends... I could cry like a girl and still be taken seriously. And they could always fall back to me when they did not understand what the females of their life meant when they said something or if they even wanted my opinion on what their girls would think or like. Life seemed very calm and quiet. But then there came this friend in my life, who really made me feel all womnly and attractive and stuff like that. He told me that men and women can never ever be friends. I disagreed for a long time till it turned out to be true. The years of friendship was caught between the platonic plane and the other side. It was sad. Losing a friend. But then for me friendship transcends all this. Can one be friends still after sharing a passionate interlude in bed? I still have to find people, men and women who have gone through this and are yet friends. The whole equation changes. The physical closeness that happens should actually get friends closer but it does not. Possessiveness, expectations.... and a lot more baggage get added.
So I am on the lookout, to find if friendship survives outside bedroom escapades??
