This question is rhetorical. Everyone has his personal opinion. Someone’s is based on personal experience, others argue that such friendship can not exist, and someone gives the example of the personal life situation.
Is a friendship after sex a reality? Probably, it happens. Usually after sex the friendship ends.
What is the friendship? Friendship is what brings people together. And if friends are heterosexual, sooner or later one of them will want something more. Why do you need to look for the person with whom you will have an excellent understanding, common topics of conversation, mutual sympathy when such person is already in your life? Is it worth trying to build a relationship with a friend?
A man and a woman are of the opposite sex. They are created for continuation of the human race. And some of them think that friendship is not available for such relationship. Is it so?
It is necessary, first of all, to understand what is the man’s friendship and what is the woman’s friendship. Women’s friendship is a bunch of emotions, tears, chatter for any reason and without cause, gossip, discussing the new purchased items, shopping all day. And men’s friendship involves trust, self-sacrifice.
One of the opinions is that the friendship between male and female does not exist. Because according to nature, firstly the male sees a sex object in the female. Even if the friendship began, soon it would grow into something more, or gradually spill over into anything. Men appreciate women: appearance, shape, charm.
Initially the friendship between people begins with the falling love of one of them. And only if they understand that they can not be together, the friendship appears.
It is unnecessary, however, to deny the truth, that in relations between man and woman can be mutual understanding. Such relationships often develop between colleagues. When a man and a woman understand each other in matters of business, they share a professional interest. It’s just a mutual understanding of the two co-workers
The concept of friendship is quite philosophical. You can be friendly with people with whom you feel comfortable and safe. And, as people say «Many men, many minds».
The main thing is to be comfortable with friend, and he or she is not delivered.
But lets speak about pros and cons of such friendship.
If you ask women about this, they will surely say “Yes!” Just because it is not so interesting to have friendship only with persons of your sex.
The first indisputable advantage is evident in the absence of the girl’s husband or boyfriend. What will you do if you need man’s help? Of course, for solving the problem you can call your friend! Ward off the annoying boyfriend, or play the role of the second half at corporate parties is also task for friend. But friendship implies mutual help, so on occasion, a woman can help him also in things where it is necessary to hear a woman’s opinion. The most common example is the choosing of clothing. Also woman can ask about man’s advise. And the man’s attention, even if only friendly, always influences in our favor.
As for the cons, here are good arguments against such friendship. First of all if your friend is not alone and has boyfriend, your relations will spoil them.
And of course you have to be ready for changing minds your friend. It is possible that one day, your friend will see not only friend in you. And you will have to decide what to do with such relations. And the situation will become very complicated if the feelings are not mutual.
Now, when you can see all advantages and disadvantages of such a friendship, you can decide what you need.
We will not assert unequivocally the existence of friendship between man and woman, also we will not insist that it can not be. One thing is important! If you are really friends, don’t reject such relationship. Because you can lose great sincere feeling – real friendship!
