only if the woman is fat/ugly. even so he's probably thought about whether he wants to do her or not :haha: but they could be friends easier.
other than that no
a guy can be casual friends/accquaintance with a girl if he knows something about her personality that really puts him off of ever being attracted to her, but in that case, they cant be close/real friends. |

| this is something i have argued with probably every person i know.... NOOO, a guy and a girl can never be just friends. However, let me explain. When I say the word friends, I mean real true friends, not buddies that you hang out with. Of course you can have opposite sex friends that you hang out with but they are not the type of friends that you consider your ONE BEST friend... When I tell a lot of the girls that i hang out with that their male "friend" actually wants something else and I explain my theory, they are always like "what? no way were just friedns"... what they dont understand is that there are 2 ends of the story an the other person may not feel the same... Another case that is usually used to try to contradict this theory is by chosing 2 people (opposite sex) that act like best friends bec they spend all day together but this is usually because they are stuck together due to another connection or interest(for example, a guy hanging out all day with his best friend (a guy) and his girlfriend which converts into his "best friend".. this is the most common case but there can be any other type of connection or extra interest... So, NO,there is no such thing as a co-ed TRUE friendship |

| My best friend is a guy. We've known each other for 18 years and we have been best friends for 9 years. He's married with children. I don't know if he "wants" me, but I do know that he's my best friend. |

Hrmm...I'm gonna beg to differ bro, even tho I have no arguement with ur post, b/c most of it is true. EXCEPT for the fact that u said "a guy and a girl can never be just friends". I guess that's the male perspective. But, I, myself, have PLENTY of male friends [who I haven't/dont have sex with] . Matter o fact that's all I hang with. I only have a couple of female friends and 1 whom i actually HANG OUT WITH almost 24/7...And we [speaking of the guys] are not just hang out buddies, we confide in eachother, and talk on personal levels about everything. Whether it be 1 on 1 [which in most personal cases it is], or as a whole. Now, on the other hand, I HAVE had sex with a guy friend, but it, IN NO WAY, ruined our relationship AS FRIENDS. We both understood it was a 1 time thing, and we were just helping eachother out.It hasn't effected our friendship AT ALL. It's almost as if nothing ever happened. So in response to your question/survey, Amber, yes, it IS possible for a guy and a girl to be just friends....And I did the survey ;) |

Yeah I thought as much I couldnt quite think of the way to word it. Just seems weird that of the three messageboards I visit this survey appears on two of them. On my other main messageboard the thread got locked and link deleted but then we are pretty heavily moderated |

I agree, Lani. The majority of my friends are guys. My best friend is a guy. I have one female best friend and there is another one that I am very close to. I talk to other female friends here and there, but the majority of my friends are guys. They call me all the time to talk about everything...girls, finances, family, their job, etc. I assume that some of them are attracted to me because they hit on me. I am also attracted to some of my male friends. I don't always act on it and the attraction has yet to effect our friendship. I have some male friends that I would never be with intimately because I am not attracted to them at all. I do have some male friends that I would sleep with. I have also slept with a male friend. Zero effect on our friendship...nothing changed. As long as there is a clear understanding as to what is to be expected then there shouldn't be a problem. If both people can be adult about it then it shouldn't have to be detrimental to the friendship. Too many people can't separate sex from love. I'm going to get flamed for writing that and I don't care. I completely respect people that believe that you should only have sex with someone that you love. I would never argue their view on that and I would hope that they wouldn't feel inclined to argue mine.
I should note that when I am dating someone I am committed to just that person. I know when not to cross the line. |
