Try watching the movie; "shall we dance", there are two versions the Japanese version (which prefer) and the Amrican version which is also good.  I would recommend you write it before you post on this issue.

NY, I really like this one........

I've been told over the years by both men and woman; there is no way that men and woman can ever just be friends!  It has left me dumbfounded so very many times!  I don't ever want to offend the person making the statement, but I'd like to say, "What planet do you live on? That is one of the most ignorant statements I have ever heard."  (I hope I'm not offending anyone....but even so, it needs to be said). 

I have been a bookkeeper in the construction industry for 25 years; I know there is a stereotypical view of construction worker-type men in general; the guys working on the highrise, whistling as a woman strolls by.....................................
.....As there are all different kinds of woman in this world, so there are all different kinds of men.  I don't care if men have sex on their minds 75% of the time.  When they are trying to run successful businesses or run a crew and meet a deadline, I guarantee you it's not sex that's running through their minds. Another instance is a man who enjoys the company of woman; I believe him to be a man who is more apt to be in better intimate relationships with woman as well. 

I won't continue ranting, lol.  I'll post my own views on this issue.  I would hope that I could be mature and trusting if a significant man in my personal life had a friendship with another woman.  I would certainly want to know her and for her to know me.  I would hope, if my significant male friend (spouse or otherwise) came into our relationship with female friends, he would be more than thrilled to share any friends with me also.  I also know if someone is being 'hid' there must be ulterior motives. Whatever exists in darkness, is not of the light.................

Innocent to the max.........

One question I did ask him was this, "if the girl wasn't pretty, would you still go to the concert with her?"

He answered, "yes of course......"

The real question is......
has he told the girl he was married?

I disagree ...

He had to be hoping for a little nookie.

When Rick told me he was having trouble with his wife, I had to laugh.
Not because of what he said,
but because of a joke I thought of.
I told him the joke, but he didn't laugh very much.
Some friend he is.
