We can talk and share each other's cares without judging each other.

As a society, we have conditioned ourselves. I'm blessed to have a couple of male friends who aren't afraid to talk at a deep level, but I enjoy my female friends, most of whom can take my gut-spilling when I need it, too. <br /><br />I'm glad you had the day with Levonne. I think days "away from the grind" are very healing. I hope she is one that you will be able to call and have long phone conversations with once you hit the road. Your adventures will be great, but you'll be losing the ability to have lunch. Don't lose the friendship!Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-36763882480508021292011-05-07T06:19:17.053-07:002011-05-07T06:19:17.053-07:00There is nothing like have a good talk with a girl...There is nothing like have a good talk with a girlfriend.

There are 'some men' out here able to transcend that male macho ego thing & talk freely about their feelings. I have two close male friends I have known for about 30 years & we are all on the same wave length, maturity level & age & stage of the game. Whenever I get together with one of these fellows our in depth conversations flow freely & go on for hours & hours. It is not the usual 'guys talk' about sports, politics or kibitzing & bantering back & forth with a lot of guy's humor & small talk. Been there & did all that years ago. It is more important to me now to have a few close trusted friends who understand themselves & those around them.......Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-24401176466165456172011-05-06T21:30:24.188-07:002011-05-06T21:30:24.188-07:00nothing like some good ole fashioned girl talk!..I...nothing like some good ole fashioned girl talk!..I miss my friend, Brenda..she lives about 8hours from me..so a coffee date is a bit out of reach!.. :(Sue and Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436889944386917688noreply@blogger.com
