The friendship between man and woman is an argument as old as the world, the source of many discussions, debates, different views, a topic discussed and discussed again.
Despite all this talk, in the end everyone still has several explanations, justifications more or less valid claim to believe what is the best answer to the old dilemma.
Someone says that this kind of friendship is impossible, others that it is possible and others that it is very difficult but possible.

What is the truth? It 'hard to respond in an absolute sense to this question. Like everything in life, the solution lies in identifying, in its beliefs and its susceptibilities to life.
So I think that there is a solution equal for all to this dilemma: each according to their experiences has a personal reply more or less definitive, because naturally in the course of their lives will certainly be subject to new experiences that could upset and change certainties and beliefs that permeated his mind.
My experience leads me to say that a man and a woman can be friends, in the true sense of the word even if among them there is physical attraction, like two relatives, as a brother and sister, as if they look without notice the other is of the opposite sex.
Certainly do not doubt that when the two are also physically attracted to the thing becomes a little more difficult, but in the end if the friendship is true all this is exceeded.
On the other hand, if there is any kind of attraction or physical or mental because a man and a woman should talk? They could be friends not by choice but only if they have a common goal to pursue, work, study eccettera .... But it is precisely this friendship?
Let us remember that in some languages the word "friend" also has the double meaning of "lover" (not necessarily with sexual significance).
This is the point: love is the engine of all things, the engine is the first mutual knowledge and therefore of true friendship.
Understood this, the friendship between a man and a woman is the most beautiful and complete and, without jealousies and rivalries, the complicity and confidence that we can establish one can not compare to that of two friends of the same sex.
Understand that you can overcome the problems that arrive on time when the two friends are married, especially jealousy of their partners who can not conceive that between a man and a woman there may be a good friendship without ulterior motives.
True friends are those who trust each other exchange, dreams and thoughts, virtues, joys and sorrows, always free to break up without ever break. No matter if idue friends are a man and a woman.
