Male plus Female equal to zero

I should be blogging about my trip, I want to, but I guess not today. Maybe my next posting ...

There was an article in Mind Your Body, a supplementary copy from the Straits Times, which caught my attention. I seldom read this supplement, but this week, there was a topic on opposite-sex friendship. The writer brought out points why usually it would not work out between a male-female relationship. I can't say I agree or disagree. I know the situation. It is hard even if is possible, as there will always be gossip from outsiders. True, and there are consequences. The writer admited it. The writer also touched on prevention to keep the situation in control.

It seem almost impossible for a male-female close friendship to last as would a male-male or female-female. Society is not helping with their suspicious and gossipy attitude. Friendship is from the heart. So what if there is some feeling attached. Feeling is what bind two people together. Marriage is consumption of friendship with sex fulfilling the passion. But two people don't need sex to bind and be intimate in relationship. That is what people called Friendship, one can say it is a marriage without the sex part haha.

It is always nice to see two males or two females bind with each other. Everyone will applause when they see such binding. One often sees it in movies, but in real life, it happens too, only that you don't get to see the dramas attached. But it is still there. In the movies, if it is a male-female, the plot will always have them falling in love and get married. As for real life scenario, I don't know, if there are any, the couple probably do it secretly else society will gossip. That is sad. Otherwise, we can see more such relationship in the open.

I know it is possible for a man to have platonic friendship with a female. I have felt it before. All I ask of them is their friendship. To be my close friend, my dear's friend, a family's friend. And her family will be my family too. Two families will be like one, as each supporting each other.

Friendship. True and close friendship. It is hard to have, when even the other party is not willing to give friendship a chance. Because of fear.

So in reality, opposite-sex friendship exists only in dreams!

That is sad ...

Society is imperfect and yet expects other to be perfect. Go fly kite lah!
