Can Men And Women Be Friends?
Men and women can be friends, however, not in the same way that men can be friends with other men or women can be friends with other women. A safe distance should be maintained mentally as well as in demeanor, and the norms of gender interaction as described in the link below should always be upheld. The relationship should be purposeful, for example, you intended to marry your female friend or help her with work or school assignments rather than a relationship where you just hang out together, crack jokes, share secrets, etc. Discussion 30301
