Ughh can't women and men just be friends with no romantic involvement

Absolutely, until someone gets feelings.

I used to think so. Until my best friend confessed he'd been in love with me for years. It ruined the friendship.

Over time one or both become attracted and it becomes harder to stay friends. It's possible to be friends if this doesn't take place in my opinion.

Indeed!

My last experience here was that me and a user here became very good friends and it was already in the beginning clearly that there would be nothing else except friendship.

After 3 months suddenly he started with sexual stuff and when I denied but still would have continued our friendship he disappeared without saying just "Goodbye" - our friendship was nothing worth to him.

This example here seems to be typically for many others here. 😒

Sure they can. I have platonic male friends.

It's worked for me mostly. The only downside is that I've found is that the friendship lasts until she finds an actual romantic partner then the friendship fades pretty quickly.... not with online friends but with real life ones.

I guess im better without friends.

At the same time, some people just can't be friends. Chemistry is a powerful thing.

I can't go to a saloon, without some lady asking me to dance and suggesting more ... my friends get the same latitudes ... they can romance me too ... life is too precious and friends too special to not let them intertwine closeness.

My male friends would end up confessing having a crush on me. But i have better luck with having male friends now.

I have two guy friends. Nothing more than friends

Cuz there’s this thing called a penis and this thing called a vagina and uhhhh yea

I like to believe so, but it's hard apparently.

Well of course. It’s silly to think otherwise.
