That's true. Originally I had the " men and women can't be good friends unless there's an ulterior motive" line you see in adulthood.

Well, is there friendship without an ulterior motive at all?

Of course. That's one of the main points of real friends.

What you call 'real' friends maybe are friends to which you assign a high value due to cooperative behaviour that's sustainable long term.

As soon as this behaviour expectation is broken, you'd probably not consider them 'real' friends.
