Break Time!

Anything interesting that comes to my mind, anything interesting I go through, and anything interesting I feel!

Is it possible?

 

She : a girl who is in love and getting closer to be engaged.

He: a nice guy, a good friend, and a cheerful person who is full of life.

 

 

They meet one day and they click. Nothing more nothing less! They love hanging around with each other, and enjoy going out for dinner, movies, or whatever reason. They share good laughs and good talks. They talk to each other on a daily basis, and most of the time more than once a day. She talks about her BF and he talks about his experiences and life stories. They talk about old high school days, university days, what they love doing, what they hate in people etc etc,      to sum it up an innocent friendship.

 

They haven’t known each other for long, but yet have this bonding. They don’t know each other so well, yet it feels like they have known each other for so long. Talking to him is relaxing, and talking to her is worth it. He says he need a female- friend and thinks she is a good listener. For her, even a simple movie outing is more fun when it is with him.

 

They talk about it as they seem to be afraid that this might go in wrong directions. She has no intentions in cheating on her BF and he has no intentions of causing trouble. Or at least this is what they both say.

 

The question is “is this normal?” Is it normal for a girl who has a Bf to be close to another male, knowing that her BF doesn’t like the idea yet she still sees her friend and talks to him. I wouldn’t classify this as cheating, but I would sure say that it isn’t a NORMAL situation in our society nor it is very acceptable by everyone.

 

I personally believe in friendship between genders. I would also say that personally my best friends were always males.

 

Do you think guys and girls could be JUST friends in our society or would it ALWAYS turn out to be something else?

They both have to prioritize things,,,
For her,, she shouldn’t risk a serious relation that will end eventually with marriage,,,
For him… apparently they don’t know each other for so long,, so a wise decision should be taken before they getting along with each other more,, where splitting is so painful,,, and as long as he respect her and her relation,, he should be able to do whatever it takes to guarantee her happiness with a man she chose to spent the rest of her life with,,, including to walk away silently and quietly with so much respect to a new happy family is being put together,,

BUT,, a good female friend of mine said once,, as long as they the 2 parties are grown up, mature ,, then there is nothing to worry about,,

This sounds to be a difficult situation to judge. If a girl or a boy is emotionally engaged to a person from the other sex with an intention to be married and share a life they should be the best of friends. If the girl feels that spending quality time with another boy brings her happiness then I belive there is an inherent problem with the first relation. The Girl must review the reasons why she is spending quality time with another boy while being in a ersious relation. is the other boy more attractive, smarter, richer, or is it just chemistry between them! This is a serious situation, i say again.
