    I have found other women to be very caddy at times. With that said, I have also found some women to be very open minded, loyal, trustworthy and honest. I think its who you are exposed to. I think with a man as a friend, lets face it, they nod and agree with us and try to say all the right things because they don't want to face the "wrath" of a hormone swing. lol

    I don't think it relates so much to sex as it does to personality. The reason I think so many ex boyfriends become best friends, is because it is rare to get that close to anyone. Dating brings you alot closer to a person than just becoming friends with someone. That is obviously not to say that a female can't be a best friend, just that boys who were boyfriends have a different way of getting so close. In fact, I think it is interesting to note that most of the time a girl would not become best friends with a boy who was never their boyfriend - also, no impossible, but less likely.

    Yes and no. I do think that men are better friends because you can trust them but women are evil in some ways. That's natural of course. You can and can not trust them. It really depends of a person.

    It is nice to have friends of both genders and it all depends upon what you want from the relationship - for example I would prefer a round of golf with a male friend but a night at the pictures with a lady friend, preferably my wife.

    It depends on the person.Personally I think women are better friends because we know more about our gender.But some women think men are better friends because they are not catty like women are.

    Men act cool coz they want to sleep with you someday...if they are your ex...then they miss you so much they would want to have a go at it again!!

    Woman on the other hand take this to be friendship since they have no hidden agendas!

    I think men are better freinds, women can be so catty, and back stabbing. Men seem to be more trustworthy when it comes to THAT kind of relationship.

    Because Women do knothing but start drama and talk crap about you behind your back. I have more guy friends than girls, because I can actually trust them not to go and tell lies about me. Women are so catty, they're just out to get each other.. =/

    that's right men

    women tend to be jealous and talk behind your back.

    men are really good friend because there will be there for you no matter what, he will be caring, and sweet.
