Do men talk serious subjects with girls who are just their friends?

Do men talk about "serious" topics like marriage, kids and future to women who are not their girlfriends and just "friends"?

When a man starts talking about marriage and kids does it mean he really is interested in you as a long term prospect?

Would a man be comfortable discussing these topics with their friends at all (male or female)?

Any view on this would be interesting.

Kenj agony auntIf he trusts you as a friend then yes he may just open up and just be generally discussing his future with you, it doesn’t mean to say he’s discussing yours and his future together.

If he’s into you then you will probably notice other small things, he may touch your arm more often, look at you when he thinks you’re not looking, stand close to you, hold doors open, buy your lunch etc...

He may be gauging your reaction to it all by telling you to see if you’re on the same page as him, but usually in relationships that type of talk comes later on not before.

If your curious just ask him strait for a date and see what he says. Guys often beat around the bush when it comes to asking out girls, were often shy creatures and need reassurance were not going to be rejected.

Kenj - this is not discussing relationship "problems" tho, that is my issue.

We have been friends for a long time, and very close. But this just seems odd... would men discuss it with a woman who was just a very good friend, or is he trying to tell me something?

Kenj agony auntI would say it depends on the friend, how long you have known them, how well you know them.

I know I have discussed relationship problems with my best mate in the past.
