My question is, can a man be with a woman for this much time and still not fall in love with her? Could it be possible that he's still considering the whole relationship to be a pastime?
Riya .....i think YES .....a man and woman can be just good friends......
there is a difference in loving someone as a friend and being "in love" with someone........
you can still love your friend and vice versa without strings attached as long as both of you are clear from the outset that you understand what the friendship entails and that its not "headed" anywhere .......
i'm not saying ppl don't fall in love during the course of such a friendship , they might but it doesn't always have to be an eventuality !
