Honest Opinions

It is indeed possible. As long as you set the record straight and let those men (or women) know that there will be no hanky panky, not now and not in the future, then there is absolutely no problem.

As soon as the one or the other is not playing the game anymore, it is time to sever that friendship. I make it clear from the start and until now, it works fine.

You just have to set boundaries and not tolerate any deviation from them.

Yes they can. I had one in my teens. It lasted for 2 decades. I still cherish those memories. The best friendship I ever had perhaps.

I do, But I'm not married, having a Husband might make it....difficult

Unfortunately, the majority of married people have precisely that after the kids are a few years old. I think it would be difficult if they were both hetero.

Absolutely.

Of course! But....partners are not always happy with those type of friendships sadly.

Oh yes! My best friend and I are only platonic and it can never be anything more.

Yeah

From the male perspective? No. Man do not enjoy being banished to the "Friend zone"
From the female perspective? Yes

It is very possible.

I had one for almost ten years.

I had a couple with coworkers.

Yes absolutely.

Yes I think so

YES, I do!

Yes I do. I have in the past

If they're both capable of caring about the person and not the attraction, yes.

No. I hate that I say no...but for real, no.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes,they can.

Boundaries , expectactions if any have to be set, upfront.

Yea. 🙂

Yup ..

I guess, I really don`t know.

Many married men will tell you it's absolutely possible, just ask their wife

Yes. It helps if at least one is married. Then platonic is your only choice

I think it is possible, but it is difficult to remain platonic.

only until she takes her bra off...

Yes. People who don't think it's possible usually are just imposing their own limitations on others

They can if they weren’t married. It gets complicated otherwise

Sure. Of course. It happens all the time.

Of course they can - if that’s what both want.

Definitely the holy father and the nuns do all the time

Obviously they can. Not everyone can manage it, but it's definitely possible.

Ha! It's called a marriage!

If neither is attracted to the other.

yep. several female friends. like sisters to me.

Yes

No

Yes but both parties must have insanely good impulse control.

Yes
