Does simplehearted friendship exist between man and woman?

i have heaps of guy friends and have had them for ages wouldn't giv ethem up for any boyfriend, because i know their always there when i need them and would never turn their backs on me in the same situation it has happened before and i felt bad but good friends are hard to find and friends that stand the test of time should be treasured.

I would call it platonic. Yes I had such a friend. She was the smartest woman I ever met, but sexually there was absolutely no spark. Which was very sad... Could have been close to perfection. Where are you Marcia Joy F.? Been looking for her lately - she has a daughter named Celia. (in case this is read by someone who knows where she lives). ;-)

This can be done. Before I met my husband he had a lot of friends who were girls. They had boyfriends but my husband was the one they would come crying too when something went wrong. That was over 16 years ago, we are still friends with one of the "girls". She would hang out with us before she got married, her husband is/was not very social. We even were invited to her wedding. My husband still talks to her and they keep up with what is going on with mutual friends, our kids, etc. I was never jealous because they were totally honest with me upfront and never tried to hide their friendship. I met her very early on her our relationship. Now when I worked in an office, I had one co-worker that we would always go to lunch together. This was before I met my husband and was dating someone else. The co-worker he was married and we would socialize together and his wife and I hit it off great. She knew there was nothing going on, and didn't mind that her husband went out to lunch every day with me. Because again, he was totally upfront with his wife and told her about me from day one. He had been with the company for a while and I was new. Where we worked the only lunch place that was close was McDonalds, and we didn't have a lunch room in our office building. So he invited me to go lunch with him and some other people, and our friendship started that way. I think we had more problems with the other people in the office wanting to start rumors. Go figure. The big thing is trust, which I think a lot of relationships are lacking now a days.

I have lots of male friends though sometimes, our friendship is misinterpreted by my other friends and even my partner. There is nothing wrong with that. I think its better that your guy knows that youhave other male friends aside from him. Since there are a lot of insecure males, you have to make your partner feel that he is special and he standsout from all other males that you know. Also, make sure that its really friendship that exist between you and the male friends you know.Keep your exes away from you as much as possible because your partner may not understand why you two are still friends. When you and your friends meet, introduce your lover at once to avoid any misconception. not introducing him may make him think that you are hiding something from him.
