Do you think there is pure friendship between men and women?

[Penelope]

I have recently changed my mind about this topic. I used to believe in the friendship between men and women, but everytime I had a new friend, our relationship failed because one of us had fallen in love with the other one. On the other hand, I know many people who have a beautiful relationship although they are man and woman. And so, I think it's hard thing but possible.

it depends on the effort.

Do you think there is pure friendship between men and women?
Tell us your opinion. Thanks.

I wish I am a man then I could answer this, but I can share my opinion.

Nothing is impossible in this world. I guess the conflict between men and women started from the old teachings of our forefathers. The battle between a man and a woman is very obvious even at present... other people forgot to consider that people who belong to the same gender has it's own battle too and possibly be using the opposite sex as a front to win their own fight. If this is not corrected I guess pure friendship is impossible... but time is changing men and women alike is becoming more literate now. They are learning how to judge by their own and freeing themselves from the cell of the old tips or counsel... I guess, it's not impossible... there are lucky ones whom I believe found themselves in this kind of friendship.
Good luck!

it depends. I am not sure, maybe halfway.

I think, if both are strong to hold the friendship (it cannot be one person only), it's not impossible to overpower all the test of life... passing those test will prove how pure you are to each other.
I also think this is not only for friendship even in family relations it's the same.

I think it depends on our cultures, religions, and as you said teaching of our fathers and this point is part of culture as i think.
you wished to be a man to know his point of view towards women.
but i wish to be a woman to know her point of view towards men.
you show us a good topic allison
GOOD LUCK

I believe that friendship between men and women exists even though there are a lot of people who don't. One of my good friends is a boy and we've known each other since early childhood. We've never been in a romantic relationship with each other but have a lot of topics for discussion. We never get bored with each other and I value this relationship very much.
