Do you believe in the possibility of a true friendship between a man and a woman?
What exactly is a 'true' friendship? I suppose the more shallow out there in society think it has something to do with baring your soul, but I don't think that's really what 'true' friendship is about. Friendship is when it's three in the morning and you're looking up an esoteric law from 1836 about the banking system to try and establish a precident for the law coming up through the committees tomorrow morning. It's knowing what kind of bagels you like, and your favorite teams.
That and it's about not running red lights, and jumping in holes.
So I do and I don't. There comes a point in any good friendship where you find yourself thinking, fuck, I'm fourty years old and alone, and the only person who consistantly understands me works with me. We could be good together. And that's the part where friendship gets fucked up, because then you'll think, I have a shitty track record and when I inevitably screw it up, I'll have ruined the best thing I ever had. Once you think it, that's when your friendship as you knew it is over, because from that moment on, you're always going to be thinking about it in the dark recesses of your mind.
Also, guys, it's the 21st century. Gays can't marry yet, but we're not sending them to the psychiatric ward anymore, so let's not get cagey with this gender bias bullshit. Friendship can lead to sex and love no matter who or what you are.
