Nope. There's no way men and women can be "friends". One or the other is going to be physically attracted to the other at some point then BOOM goes the dynamite. Happened with me. I met this girl and and first I wasn't too attracted physically but over time as we were "just friends" feelings developed for her and I finally told her how I felt. She said she was attracted to me too and we dated for a while but then after a while she said that it was too awkward and she wanted to go back being just friends. I said there's no ****ing way. I haven't talked to her sense. So no, men and women can't just be friends.
I only have one girl that is among my best friends. I've never felt a physical attraction to her (not that she is ugly), she just feels too much like my sister. She passes out in my bed every once in a while after we are drinking and I suppose that might lead to something down the road, but it has not as of yet.
--JUST friends, as in thats IT and nothing else - doubtful. --GOOD friends, with all the attached elements of attractiveness and sexual tension - yes. I see nothing wrong with having friends in that nature. So what if its not based on the "true" concept of friendship. People need reasons to bond. (Unfortunately at the workplace which is supposed to be platonic, those dynamics can play out there, too. Work relations based on attraction >>> good HARD worker)
I was once "best friends" with a girl back in middle school and high school. She was pretty cute, but I was looking at other chicks, and she was with other guys. We never really expressed any affection towards each other for years, and quite honestly I thought I never would. That is until one day I found myself with my penis in her..
Wait, so all of you have been romantically interested in all of your female friends at some point? I find that odd.
What is this romance you speak of? I think we're talking about being physically interested. Either "mmm, that's hot, I would so hit that" (lust), or "not that hot, but I bet she'd like it if I tossed her a bone" (ego boost).
So can a gay guy and a straight guy just be friends? I guess the gay guy would eventually want to get some from the straight guy.
...ok, but why can't you be friends and simultaneously be physically attracted to them? A lot of my friends know I think they're pretty and are perfectly fine with it. I'm not trying to get into their pants or anything. Of course if some of them let me, I'd be all for it, but it's not a main motivation of our relationship. And no, I am not physically attracted to every girl I know. Is that weird? Not everyone is attractive...
Yes, they can. Things can also happen between those two friends that were not intended to happen, given the right (or wrong, depending on how one looks at it) circumstances.
Sometimes you meet girls and you try to have them first as a friend so then later you can ask her out, but sometimes you have a wonderful friendship and dont want to end that friendship, so maybe never tell that girl your feelings to her, so you are friends, but you still think she is attractive. one time, I met a girl, we made friends, and later I asked her out, she said no, but nothing changed in the friendship, we are two good friends, so she knows I like her, but it doesnt feel awkward when we are together in a party or something, and now she has a boyfriend so its different.
Answer is no. And for people saying "She'd have to be really unattractive" that's fine, but you wouldn't be friends with an ugly woman anyways.
