Men & Women-Friends and Conversation

As time races by I tend to realize that many
friendships between men and women thrive
on conversations of day to day accomplishments.

Many mundane daily tasks and family activities
are the basic building blocks of our lives. By sharing
these little things we do with each other we tend to
understand how alike we all are.

I constantly read or hear in the media that men &
women can not be friends. I find that totally false.
I have been friends with men my entire adult life.
Some friendships have endured longer than others.
Several just became victims of life style changes or
moves or sometimes relationships got in the way.

Even though I have been married twice I still have
been friends with men who enjoy a lengthy phone
conversation from time to time. I feel it is good for
the soul and nurishes the heart to share female
thoughts with the male species. I think men like to
chat with someone other than their spouse or
girlfriend to keep a fresh outlook.

As women we dish with each other about the office,
politics and relationships, etc., etc. but those male
friends can make us laugh and see ourselves in a
different light. It can keep us out of costly therapy too!
