Man .. Woman, just friends!

Him and Her, just friends?

We all need friendship. Friendship can give us something that we cannot get from our family. However, when we speak about friendship, do we refer to the man-man, woman-woman or man-woman friendship? Is it the same thing? Why do we seek friendship with the opposite sex? Before answering these questions, the person that you consider "friend" is really just a firend? Watch his / her behaviour, his / her speech and especially the  body language which never lies. Here are some clues that show you that the other is not just "friend":

He .. just a friend?

· He does try to impress you.

· He offers personal gifts for your birthday.

· He never talks about his feelings towards someone else.

· He talks about what he did during the day, what he ate for diner, tv programs that he watched...

·  He calls you simply to hear your voice.

· If you mention another man, he becomes very quiet and moody and is keen to change the subject.

She.. just a friend ?

·  She takes care of her appearance in front of you so that to attract you.

· Pay attention to her reactions to you when you are with her. A girl who wants to be more than just friends will usually try to stay close to you. Read her body language. Girls usually smile a lot around boys they like.

· She offers you an irregular level of eye contact.

· Think about her availability when you need support. If she always answers your phone calls, replies to your text messages and shows up at important events in your life, chances are, she wants to begin a relationship with you.

· Consider the way she acts when you are around other girls. Jealousy is an almost sure sign that the girl you like wants to be more than just friends. She may get an upset look on her face or try to jump into every conversation that you have with other girls if she is jealous of the attention you are showing the other girl.

Friends around you can tell when something is going on and have no doubt on the changes taking place in your relationship with your friend.

However, the question is, why do we seek friendship with the opposite sex?
