I found an excellent post on the topic of interaction between members of the opposite sex. Please take a read as this issue effects us all and it is our responsibility to find out our role as Allah and His Rasool taught us.

Interacting with Members of the Opposite Sex
Posted in Introspection, Islam
This is a very important subject as many brothers and sisters fall into this trap as the shaytan justifies the reasons. The best thing is to protect ourselves and keep contact to a minimum with professionalism. When seeking comfort or advice sisters should seek that from sisters, and brothers should seek it from brothers or their own mihrims, i.e. husbands, etc. Allah (SWT) knows the human is weak and that is why He blessed us with this wisdom to protect ourselves against fitnah.

subhanallah princessa you are so right so many brothers ans sisters fall into this trap and then try to justify their interactions with each other. Thank you believer for posting. One of the subjects that really touches home here in medina. so many students here gaining knowledge and then when they return back to the states they become lax. very sad indeed.
