Lira, how old are your friends? Excuse the insultingness...but sometimes your friends sound a tad juvenile.
You're cool though.

No offence taken - my friends are usually our age (you're in your late twenties too, aren't you?), though I'm often at odds with them for these reasons.
I think the difference here could be cultural: I usually think it doesn't play too big a role in social relations but I reckon I think a lot more like you guys than like the people I'm surrounded by.

Yep late (on my way out this year) 20s.
Well then, I guess to answer your question: it's not at all weird to have dinner with friends of the opposite sex.

Well, it's quite what I thought then. Good, for a while there I was worried I had been doing something wrong lots of times and didn't even know

As a linguist, I have to point out "insultingness" is a valid neologism, made up of two bits I could interpret and that did convey the meaning she wanted

Seriously though, we're often afraid to make up words because they're not in the dictionary, but the dictionary is just a compilation of popular words, not a law that states what can('t) be said.
