I have recently changed my mind about this topic. I used to believe in the friendship between men and women, but everytime I had a new friend, our relationship failed because one of us had fallen in love with the other one. On the other hand, I know many people who have a beautiful relationship although they are man and woman. And so, I think it's hard thing but possible.

Tell us your opinion. Thanks.
I wish I am a man then I could answer this, but I can share my opinion.

Nothing is impossible in this world. I guess the conflict between men and women started from the old teachings of our forefathers. The battle between a man and a woman is very obvious even at present... other people forgot to consider that people who belong to the same gender has it's own battle too and possibly be using the opposite sex as a front to win their own fight. If this is not corrected I guess pure friendship is impossible... but time is changing men and women alike is becoming more literate now. They are learning how to judge by their own and freeing themselves from the cell of the old tips or counsel... I guess, it's not impossible... there are lucky ones whom I believe found themselves in this kind of friendship.
Good luck!
:-)

I think, if both are strong to hold the friendship (it cannot be one person only), it's not impossible to overpower all the test of life... passing those test will prove how pure you are to each other.
I also think this is not only for friendship even in family relations it's the same.

but i wish to be a woman to know her point of view towards men.

I believe that friendship between men and women exists even though there are a lot of people who don't. One of my good friends is a boy and we've known each other since early childhood. We've never been in a romantic relationship with each other but have a lot of topics for discussion. We never get bored with each other and I value this relationship very much.

I think it's true when you don't need to have a date relationship but want to know the knowledge and experience about mind, thoughts, love and emotions of your different gender people. So we can have the opposite-sex friends with a pure relationship to talk and share about myself each other. {-:

Form my experience, absolutely no. There is a day when one of the people fall in love and boom!

Friendship can turn into love but it is very rare. Most times somebody is sad 😞

Definitely, I believe that pure friendship between men and women exists. Friendship is a simple and pure thought that is independent of gender. Personally, I have experienced such a relationship. From my personal experience, it is nothing but deep genuine care about the other person that makes up a pure friendship and it has nothing do to with the gender of the persons involved.

I think it can be or not. When I was younger, I only thought there is pure friendship between men and women. Because I hung out with men, we were just friends with friendship not love. But I realized that between men and women the pure friendship can be to love. While spending time together much or sharing experience, another emotion can happen.

I think the possibility is there but it is not usually achieved. The key is honesty. Not honesty about regular things like, "How do you like my hair?" but deep honesty like how you are feeling and if your emotions change. This is hard to do for most people and that is why pure friendship between men and women can happen but usually doesn't.

In most cases it is very hard to do because one of them usually fall in love. Close contact between men and women often ends with some kinds of love. But I know that is possible to have very good friend as a men or women and it is only friendship.
Why do you think that a man and a woman falling in love is not a pure friendship? Lovers can be good friends too, right?

I also think it depends. If they know each other well, they may fall in love before they are realized. In my experience, I usually hang out with men as friends. But the relationship might be changed. It’s quite hard to say pure friendship exists with 100%.

I think there is such a thing pure friendship between men and women. further more I think it's important to have friends from the other gender. In my opinion it's makes you grow and learn things as a person. I specifically have a few men pure friends and glad for that.

I had a female Canadian friend who lived in the apartment below mine and worked in the same English academy as I did for almost a year. We went out a lot and anybody who saw us might've assumed we were dating, and though we were both straight nothing romantic or sexual ever happened nor was there ever any hint that either of us were expecting that. We had great times just talking, laughing, and wandering around the city.
So I know it is possible to have a friendship between a man and a woman, I'm glad that I've had at least one.
