Yep, I have quite a few male friends who are just friends that I don't want anything more from.

No. I've tried on several occasions. Every time one of us wants more.
True. I've had guy friend's that were just that to me but, they wanted more.

If there is a spark there that keeps you up at night....you ain't gonna be just friends. If you smell her scent when she is miles away...you ain't gonna be just friends.

If you send her on a beer run solo or will fart in her presence unapologeticlly....then you are friends.

Basic stuff bro.



that's some funny stuff

And...a more telling question may be "Can a man and a woman only be lovers? That one, I'm not sure of. I mean for free.

I was best friends with a girl for a year. Firstly it killed my chances of meeting an actual girlfriend. Secondly her ex husband got her pregnant. Then I find out she wanted to be more than friends. They got back together and we never hang out or talk any more; jealousy from husband as he knows she wanted more from me. I miss her as a friend but I can do without the complications.

If this was a guy friend there would be no wanting any more from each other, no jealous partners, no complications. So yes, a platonic friendship with the opposite sex is possible but beware the potential drama and complications it can bring you.

What a sad story. Great advice though.

It's a great disguise to get what your really after. Some women are more vulnerable when it comes to their guy friends.

Yes, some of my closest best friends are male, and have been for years.

It depends on the person, some people just don't click that way with the opposite sex unless it's relationship based but look beyond that and you could be suprised at what you may be missing out on.

sure men and women can be just friends. but there is a difference with being friends with Miss Plain Jane Doe and that fine young cutie in accounting who looks like the type of girl that you would take to meet the parents..
