Guess what I watched this morning? And can you believe I only watched it for the first time today?!
Well, I’ve seen bits, and that scene, obviously, but never the whole movie!
So, sat indoors today as the ‘monsoon’ rains hit Kent, I decided I would peruse the movie selection on Sky On Demand, and there it was.
Hubby was busy working, kids keeping themselves busy, so I pressed download and sat down to watch this epic movie.
How do I feel after? Hmmmm…. Well it was a lovely romantic film about two lost souls finally finding one another, and holding on. But the thought running through it the whole way… Men and women can never be friends… Is that true?
I have plenty of friends who are male, and there is nothing sexual about the relationships. I have friends who are like brothers, and friends who are genuinely mates. Plus I am in a secure and happy marriage, so there would be no place for anything else. I can even acknowledge that they are attractive, if that is the case, but I have no need to act on it.
And many of these male friends give me the respect of a sister, or treat me like one of the boys… Not like an object to fantasise over… I think!
What do you think? Can men and women be just friends?
