Can a single man be PLATONIC friends with a married/partnered female?
This male friend I have has wholeheartedly claimed that he has no other feelings for me other than friendly feelings, however he cannot help himself from flirting or making sexual jokes.
We have been friends for over 10 years but live in different states so our friendship is only thru text. I am happily married with 2 kids and he is single.
We will have totally normal conversations and then he will randomly say something about his 🍆 or how he wants a woman, and sometimes he even inquires about my sex life with my husband by saying “I hope you’re both satisfied”. It makes me so uncomfortable and I will stop responding to him or say that’s inappropriate and he will respond back with “girls talk about their sex life with each other all the time, why am I different?” I just find it different because he’s a man. I even went through a period where I blocked him for months because he would not stop. Recently I told him we wanted another child in a few years and he took the opportunity to comment on how it must be exciting to “constantly be fucking” when trying for a baby.
Is it even possible to have a platonic friendship with a single man? It’s unfortunate to me because he genuinely is a nice person but I can’t keep our friendship if he is going to continue to be inappropriate.
