I'm sure,more or less,every one has stressed over this question:Can men and women just be friends?Well,the question is complicated. Surveysshow that many romantic relationships start off as friendships. But this may be because one person is attracted to other and chooses a let's-be-mates rather than a direct approach. A poll by women's website handbag.com found overwhelming support for idea of men and women being platonic friends.but nearly half the women said some male friends were ex-lovers and one third of women secretly lusted after their male friends but didn't act on it. men are also likely to be attracted to their women friends - a survey by MarketTiers of 1,000 people in the united states found that one third of men fancy one close female friend.

It's always refreshing to see statistics such as those. It makes me have faith in the human race to see individuals gaining strength through adversity.
