It’s very nice for a woman to have male friends. They learn from you and you from them.

I don’t know where they got the idea that friendship between a man and a woman doesn’t exist, that there’s always an interest in one of the parties, even if it’s not said.

Let me explain, it may even be that two friends fall in love with each other and want to transform the feeling into another kind of love (because friendship is also love).

But there is friendship between man and woman. Naive, sincere friendship, where the only interest is to see the other good. Friends who take care of each other, who go out together. Friends who care, who give their opinion about the passions of the other, who give advice and a shoulder to welcome the cry when the advice not followed turns into disaster.

Friendship between man and woman is so good, but so good that I think that’s why people doubt it. Having a friend of the opposite sex is being able to have a different view, it is learning to respect differences, it is knowing how to be understanding, it is having plenty of love.

Friendship, which is genuine love, does not choose sex. When two souls are destined to live in friendly love, it doesn’t matter. And look, I have friends who are like brothers. That I can call at 3:00 am to complain about how much I miss that boy I fell in love with two years ago. Friends who accompany me to parties, but who have also spent hours with me in the hospital. Friends are that: friends.

And when they need it, I’m the female voice, the touch of delicacy, the scolding they deserve, the one who chooses the movie and prepares the popcorn, but the dishes… It’s up to them.

Have friends of the opposite sex because I guarantee it’s pretty good. They don’t envy you, and you learn from them and they learn from you.
