In this episode I'm tackling the popular and often controversial topic of men and women being "just friends." You've heard the idea that it's a "red flag" if he has a "girl best friend" or if he has a lot of female friendships. But is that idea actually based in reality or in your own insecurities or lack of trust in your relationship? 

I share how I navigated through my own insecurities and doubts when I started dating my boyfriend, who has many platonic friendships with women. This involved challenging the societal norms and notions that men are unable to view women as anything other than sexual or romantic prospects. We'll also explore the realms of platonic friendships between men and women, emphasizing the importance of trust both in your relationship and also trust in your intuition. We will candidly delve into how our past experiences can influence the way we perceive friendship, and discuss the heteronormative and gender-focused aspects of these ideas. So, buckle up, and let's bust these myths together, as we try to navigate the convoluted world of gender stereotypes, toxic masculinity, relationships, and friendships.
