Can women and men be friends?

Ok...My husband and I have a mutual friend. He is just as much my friend as he is my husband's. If he calls the house then if I answer the phone then we will talk for a few mins or if he calls here, I will call back if my husband is not home. My husband thinks that I should not talk to him unless he is around. I don't think that is right. But maybe I am wrong. This guy is like my brother and that is it. It seems since the surgery, my husband does not like it if I am friendly with other men. It is not like I am looking for anything other than my marriage. But am I not allowed friends, whether they be men or women? What do ya'll think? Am I wrong?
