Swallowing My Pride, Admitting My Ignorance, and Asking that Age-Old Question
While I like to consider myself an intelligent individual in many respects, I am more than willing to admit when my knowledge, and particularly my wisdom, falls short in any realm. Realizing full well that I lack the wisdom necessary to answer this question (or even begin to evaluate its underpinnings) i gotta ask it, cliched and worn out as it may be. Basically, is "When Harry Met Sally" bullshit, i.e., can friends of the opposite sex ever become "more than friends"?? :unsure:
Yes I have a girlfriend, so much like the new members wanting to know what three weeks of winny can do for spring break, this is "for a friend"...yes, that'll do. I'm too lazy to type out the specifics of the situation, and for that I apologize...but aren't they all the same?? Okay, some basics: My friend, whom we shall affectionately refer to as "BigBlue", developed a relationship of sorts (neither a plutonic or romantic...just sorta "there") with his college roomate's younger sister. Eventually the two of them started hanging out together outside of the normal realm in which they grew to know eachother (ie, when hanging out together with the roommate in question)....now, frequently talking over email, planning to visit one another, standard flirtatious behavior that everyone seems to pick up on and the brother is not happy about, so on and so on ad nauseum.
So, from your personal experiences, can it legitimately happen, or is it all bullshit meant to sell movie tickets and false hopes to pimply high school kids?
