About This Quote
The idea of a friendship between a man and a woman is often misunderstood, and often can be very hurtful. The way we use this phrase, however, is very innocent and not at all offensive. The concept here is that two people who are fond of each other and genuinely care about each other. When one person hasn’t gotten anywhere with the other person, that person considers the friendship to be over.
