Can Men and Women Be Friends Without Other People Gossiping?

Absolutely !! Men and women can be friends , at work people are just looking for gossip. Human nature would suggest if you see a man and a woman engaging in a friendship that there could be more.

You have to be clear with your coworkers if questioned that your relationship is strictly professional.

In my experience , let just say that age and maturity are not the same. I had a really good friendship with a male coworker , and everyone thought there was more going on outside of work . It was not true , because this man was happily married . All of the rumors did cause him concern , but we assured our coworkers we are just having a fun work day. We would usually try to include others in our conversations so we wouldn't be focused on directly.

Yes a man can be friendly With an woman. But the fact remains that when some woman or man spends most of his/her time with a particular person of opposite sex people are become in opinion tthatboth of them are dating because it's the only meaning full solution.

But you never bother what the others saying about it.

If one or both of you is married, it really isn't appropriate. I can believe that it isn't sexual but out of respect for your spouse, do not do it. I do have an experience with this. Two managers in my company went to lunch everyday and would hang out at meetings and always sit together. They claimed to be just friends, however fast forward 5 years and they are both divorced. The man left his wife and kids and thought the other younger female manager "friend" would marry him after they both divorced. She changed her mind after he divorced and wanted someone younger, and now he is all alone. It looks bad no matter what. I do not know your situation. However, if you are not married, I do not see a problem with it.

no, there will always be gossip.

my best friend in high skool was a male and for about 4 years everyone thought we were dating even tho wenever people asked we simply sed 'no'. once we'd sed that to everyone and people continued to ask, we simply ignored them.

u just hav to learn to ignore it.

except you're gay there's no element in having a girl for a chum. it is basically like having a female chum yet with not one of the advantages. you ought to hearken to approximately finding out to purchase and footwear, how she is feeling, why she hates her mom yet loves her on an identical time blah blah blah. adult men are greater ideal off striking out with their boys cracking a lager and a fart. in case you finally end up in the "chum zone" you're greater ideal off basically shifting on. you will under no circumstances do away with that designation.

agree with comment above... sadly no :( people just like gossip i guess and always like to assume something sexual is going on even if it isn't. it is great to have girls as friends though so gl on the situation!

Doubt it. People are always sticking their noses where they shouldn't but who cares? Because at the end of the day you know you are just friends

Probably not. It is humans nature to think that there is something sexual going on. Ignore them. It's none of their business.

you are right feeling this way,but it's also difficult for them not to gossip!!

so you have to ignore them,or talk to your friend somewhere else, except the place of work!
