Yes, I’ve always got on better with guys. It always annoys me when people assume there’s more going on just because they don’t understand platonic friendships

Complicated if there's attraction. From both sides.
If not yes indeed.

Yes..but if theres an attraction there it can get tricky

Yes. 100% hard stop.

Yes... sometimes feelings flare up but getting past those are the point of friendship. You have to realize the value of the friendship.

Of course, but I'm the same with you. Can't maintain that level of connection sometimes because it eventually goes up to the next one.

Id say 3 of my best friends are female. Two, whilst attractive, I don't think I was attracted to and probably vice versa. One actually suggested we got together to see what it was like and like an idiot I said best not, might not be good for the friendship. Good decision I think.

My oldest friend I met in a nightclub when I was 16. I was attracted to her, but one sided, and apart from one or two kisses in the past we are well in the friend zone now. It's good

It can work provided you accept a friend status. And provided one doesn't take advantage of the others feelings

Nah I can never 100% buy it, I think someone is in denial or have repressed feelings or one of them is really unattractive, lol. Or, the situation hasn't presented itself yet.

Yes... I generally find it easier to get on better with men over women - but, that doesn't mean that I would go jumping into bed with any of them any more than I'd jump into bed with any of my female friends.

Most of my friends are guys so yeah 🤷‍♀️

Yes absolutely. But not with every man or woman. I had 2 guys I was BFFS that were like brothers to me in high school. I ended up dating one. The other I never did and never could.

Absolutely. I have women friends dating back to the 80s. Now, it's not that they are unattractive--a few are drop-dead gorgeous--but that's beside the point. There's something about that female energy that I seek out, and not because I am simping. If I have a problem, I call them, maybe meet them for a meal or drinks...and I will GET the real answer. It may not be the one I want to hear, but there is nothing like a woman's take on something.

Yes I believe so. You can like a person but there isn't always a spark for more. So many variables there as well.

People say they can't, but I don't agree. I have mostly been just friends with women.

as long as one of them can maintain a platonic stance then yes they can be friends.

Yes but it's not always easy and doesn't always work out

Of course. I have always had more male friends. They’re cool n friendly.

I’ve been able to be friends without trouble.

Yes absolutely. I'm much more my randy self with female friends than I am with men. They are at ease with me then they show me they can be almost as randy

Totally yes. My first best friend was a girl

Absolutely. Until you're not.

All my friends are male, so I have to answer in the affirmative I guess. 😏

I find it very easy but men really don’t catch my interest.I prefer dating women.

Yes.

At some point, no.

And even if you are “just good friends”, that mere attraction which remains silent for some time turns out to be some feeling that can’t be subsided effortlessly.

Of course I have always had close female friends they have been the better friends to have.
I have always got on better with girls my best friends have always been girls.

Not if a man wants a taste of the muffin, just saying.

No, us boys are always trying to smash.

Make them your sworn in brother/sister. Then you are likely to develop different feelings for them.

Possible if both are not physically attracted to each other

Ya but there’s always a fine line.

They most certainly can.

Sure men and women can be just friends, and any of them can be naked and spend a nice time without getting sexually involved.

Certainly.

Yes

I can be.

Yes defo

Definitely not, men only want friends who they can fvck

I think most times, no.

Yes
