Discuss the pros and cons of cross-sex friendships.
What will be an ideal response?
Cross-sex friendships help men have lower levels of dating anxiety and higher capacity for intimacy. These patterns hold across ethnic groups, too. Cross-sex friendships can also prove troublesome because of misperceptions. Some research shows men overestimate and women underestimate their friends' sexual interest in them. Maintaining cross-sex friendships when individuals enter into exclusive dating relationships, marriage, or committed relationships is difficult, and often results in one partner feeling jealous.
