    Sure we can be just friends! Doesn't mean we haven't thought about it though :)

    Absolutely! Two of my best friends are guys.

    Absolutely yes. Probably half of my friends are women, and some are rather attractive. Yet we can stay friends because neither side is interested in crossing that line. Sometimes you just know you work better as friends than you could as more.

    I've always had more male than female friends. In fact, with the exception of a couple friends from high school, the only female friends I have are dating or married to my male friends!

    Yes they can. I love having women to talk to on a personal level. Gives me insight. :)

    Yes, it is very possible! I have been "just friends" with many women over the years (and still am). I have secretly wanted to bang quite a few of them but managed not to act on it for one reason or another and remained friends. True story......:wink:

    I personally, don't think I could ever just be friends with a guy. Mine's just fear, I'm scared to be alone with a man, other than my husband or a family member. It's a long story....

    My best friend and I have been friends for 14 years. We've never dated each other and never had "benefits" with each other... wouldn't even want to (and yes, that's true for both of us). We've both been in relationships and we're respectful of the relationship when the other is dating someone and that makes it work. He's never dated someone who has had to resent me, and I've never dated anyone who resents him. No, I don't think it always works, but it does for us.

    About half of my closest friends are guys. Some gay, some straight, other unkown.... One of them used to have a thing for me. It didn't go anywhere and we're still really close (and dating other people).

    I think any friendship is possible of you get the right combination of personality in the people.

    "If" there was ever, even once, any type of physical relationship, I think you really can't just be friends.... sorry, just my opinion.

    But if there wasn't, sure, why not?

    I don't know. I have mixed feelings about this. I am pretty sure that I could be just friends with a man if that man would allow us to be just friends. However, in my experience with this, I have never done it successfully. Every time I think I'm just friends with a man... I find out that he has different feelings for me.. whether it be wanting a relationship or wanting a more sexual relationship...

    When I was younger, I was friends with guys... but the older I get, it just seems more complicated. They all want to throw sex in the pot and ruin the friendship or end up falling in love with me. lol
