Male and Female friendship

For this chapter, the section of male and female friendship interested me the most because I come across this topic many times with my friends. When my friends and I engaged in this topic, half of us agree to disagree. The reason for this is because, many of us believe that male and females can be friends and the other half believes that they can't. I am on the  half that believes that male and female cannot be friends. The reason I say this is because, male and female that spends quality time together many times gain some kind of affection for one another. I believe that females becomes much more attracted to a guy friend. Many of us are so sensitive and we care so much that we put ourselves in the position that, that person might feel the same way due to the simple fact that we spend so much time together. I had one friend that went through the same experience, her and her guy friend has been friends since freshman year of high school. During the second year of high school, they were hanging out everyday and she would tell him everything.  The attention that she received from him made her feel secure. She felt wanted from someone that she truly cared about and because of this, the feelings came in, and she was starting to fall for him. It was always so awkward because after a few months, he stared to talk to someone else. They did not hang out or talk as they used to, she was disappointed and but, there was nothing that she could do.




That is the main reason why I never believed a guy and a girl could be friends. It comes to the point where someone begins to fall for the other and they know that nothing can happen because they are friends. But, I think that it is always beneficial to have a close friend. Times are hard and friends are very rewarding during our times in need.
