Confused about friendship

I met this guy a while back but he recently came back into my life as friend again. He is a great person but i am just not sure if I want to continue talking to him. Because I don't believe that a guy and girl can be friends they eventually start falling for each other. Also in our Indian community a girls respect is very important so I don't want others to see us together in public and make a big deal out of our friendship. So I have decided to keep my distant from him . Do you guys think my reasoning is logical ?

I don't exactly agree with you about how a guy and a girl can't just be friends. I think that they can. I have many guys who are my friends and I have no feeling for them at all. I respect them as my brothers like my Guru told me to. I'm very well aware of the Indian culture and I stay well away from guys from school if I see them anywhere in public. It's not my parents, they trust me, its the Indian society they will make up stories where ever possible. Its best to be alert.

I think that your decision to keep a distance is a very respectable and wise thing to do. I totally understand, and I would do the same thing.

Bhul chuck maff karna ji.

Yeah see this stuff is complicated. It is very rare that both parties dont feel anything(esp if both are young and raging hormones). And if u want to be friends with him you have to be very open about it. Ie make sure parents know he is a friend. Sikhi is about being pargat (open), there is no need for hiding. As long as ur parents know he is a friend does it matter what anyone says. always in life try to please your guru, and not people. if u cant be open about it then there is a chor (thief) in ur heart and it will take u away from god. Because god is true (satguru)

So yeah point is if you are true at heart and see him as a friend only no lust (nothing bad like that) you can be friends. But since its very hard to do as a young person, cutting him off is a logical thing u did. Focus on your relationship to god :))
