A glance around a crowded restaurant confirmed that in our trendy modern world, it is not out of the ordinary for a woman to enjoy the company of a man whom she isn't in a relationship with.
If you dare tell a 21st century woman that she cannot catch up with her male friends, she'll most likely laugh and do it anyway, just to prove to you that she can. There is also the never ending debate of whether a man and woman can truly be "JUST FRIENDS" and there are usually an equal amount of people who say yes and no. Perhaps it is in all of us, that little twinge of discomfort that we often brush away when we are sharing a happy moment with someone other than our partner. Enjoying the company of a member of the opposite sex is far from constituting infidelity, so why should we feel bad? The evolution of the interaction between men and women has certainly made it easier for us to be in a platonic relationship. Spending time alone repeatedly with a member of the opposite sex is not a crime, but it is also putting ourselves in a position where we are able to understand them better, to laugh at their jokes, to see their kind nature and keen intelligence and to fall in love, if not, lust. Most of the time, things happen naturally. That is why we would just need to go with the flow. If you're just seeking for a great friendship, then be moderate in your interaction with the opposite sex, but yet don't feel too awkward or seem too stern in keeping a distance away from the opposite sex. It is good to have friends from the opposite sex because then, you would have a variety of friends in your social circle.You would never know what is ahead of your journey with the opposite sex. So the BEST answer is to stay put to the saying that goes "just go with the flow".
Just a little of my opinion on relationships after reading Xandria Ooi's article...
Cheers!
