    Friends is one thing. I don't have many guy friends, but I do have a few, both online and in person at work.

    My husband has one other female friend, though...he doesn't really talk to her. And we only see her when we arrange a playdate for our kids.

    Anyway...there's a difference between friends and cheating. I would never go out after work with a male friend or co-worker unless our SO's were present also. If the conversation online gets a little...uncomfortable, we cease being friends.

    I'm here for one thing only, sex with strangers. For the last year I have lulled my female friends on MFP from across the nation into a false sense of security by giving praise and encouragement, jokes, and the occasional flirtation so that one day I could potentially fly around the country to bang all of them.

    who put the F in MFP. This guy! Thats awesome. As I hear a bit "Keep up the great work!"

    I think it's a very fine line between cheating and not cheating, and a lot of it does have to do with how you and your SO view cheating.

    I think with the start of social media networking, IMing, smart phones, etc it has made it much easier and tempting to fall into something like cheating, whether it was originally meant to be that way or not.

    I think people need to step back and think: "If my partner was doing this, would I be happy with them?"

    Sometimes stops things in its track.

    This.

    Yes! Agreed.

    I have spent my life with males as my best mates and nothing has ever been there romatically between us!! I find it difficult to believe that in this day and age people would always think there was another motive behind someones support. If someone openly said they were gay would you instantly feel the same way??
    - men and women cannot be friends without sex or innuendoes coming into the equation!

    I disagree totally. They do not with me and nor do they with most of the people I know. I think you must have run into more than your fair share of sleaze bags. We're not all "only interested in one thing".


    sorry to tar you guys all with the same brush but thats how it seems to be in my experience! its actually good to hear a guy say hes different..there is hope LOL

    I have guys on here and I appreciate their input and encouragement just as much as I do my girls.

    I have only female friends on MFP ,
    #1 because i know how easy it is to get caught up with the attention other men will give you
    #2 also , because when i post my progress pictures I dont need men ogling and THEN trying to friend me because of my pictures... so I dont accept any requests UNLESS they are from women.
    #3 I AM NOT HERE TO MEET MEN...
    #4 MY body is different than a mans so I dont feel the need for their input for MY success....

    This is me PERSONALLY ...I dont judge what other people may or may not do. :flowerforyou:
  • I jhave been with my Hubby for 22 years now :) and we both have friends of the opposite sex :) I don't see nothing wrong with it....but I won't flirt or anything like that with them......I love my hubby and respect him :)

    I don't look at the gender of someone when I am looking to add them to my friends list. I look for things we might have in common, goals, hobbies, that sort of thing.
    IRL I only have one female friend. I get along better with guys, I work with mainly guys and I have always been treated as one of the guys.
    I haven't gotten any of the flirting hitting on type of comments. But it must be because I not one of the "hot" ones, or because I don't put off that vibe. I think a lot of the flirting comes from what you put out there, in posts or in your pics. I'm not saying any of it is bad, just you get back what you put out there.

    I don’t currently have any male friends on here, but only by coincidence. My bf has straight female friends, both online and in person.
    He can handle himself if someone gets overly flirty and I can too.

    I like the rule of "don’t do anything I wouldn’t want my partner to do or would be afraid to tell him/her about". As long as he and I stick to that we’re not cheating.

    I have some really hot male friends on this site but not only are they HOT, they are smart and athletic, offer me encouragement and know their stuff !! And THAT is why they are my friends, not because they are HOT. I actually had some men on my list who were REALLY HOT but they never said a word and were absent alot.... they were deleted!

    Women and men can be friends, it's not "out of respect for my husband" , it;s more like "out of respect for the fact that neither one of us trust each other" ..... hey whatever works for you, but don't be so judgemental and surely you realize how WRONG your comment was ?????

    Dr. Drew did a very interesting show on this the other night. He demonstrated that online flirting means alot more when men do so then when woman do so psychologically.

    He explained that men only do things with intent. If they are trolling the web they are doing so to meet and cheat.

    While woman whom are more social can flirt and turn it off and go back to their kids and husbands redirecting the online feelings into their current relationships, kinda like a romance novel.


    While, I believe there is a certain point that it is cheating for both sexes don't get me wrong. I just found his theory on this subject interesting and thought I would share since you brought it up ^.^

    I CALL BULL ****!

    Hilarious...I'm here to maintain my own healthy agenda and meet PEOPLE who are like-minded that can help motivate me (and hopefully I can return the favor). I don't care if they have boy or girl parts beneath their workout clothes, as long as they're motivating and can make me laugh here and there...

    It would take an act of a God I dont believe in to honestly try to hook up with someone on this site. 20 times out of 10 I will do everything in my power to discourage it and I will ask three or four times that I be removed as a friend before I do it myself.

    Its true.

    I can have all the guy friends I want on my FL, but if you actually try to meet me - i will shut down and shut you down quicker than your last running PR. Ive met a slight handful of people from here, and my neighbor is one of the badass regulars around here on the forums- but Im honestly going to say that I am only interested in meeting a few of my girlfriends on here. Of course there is a platonic exception here and there - but its mostly girls that I would pursue a real life friendship with.

    I love boys on my FL.
    Im scared shtless of them transitioning to real life.

    I would RUN

    For me its a women only rule as any of the guys I've come across so far usually have ulterior motives even being on a site like MFP!

    Also out of respect for my husband as well as I wouldn't be happy about him having women friends - men and women cannot be friends without sex or innuendoes coming into the equation!

    i feel sorry for people like you. i think its ridiculous that someone cant be "friends" with someone of the opposite sex on a site like this.

    My policy is to avoid adding people like this as MFP friends.

    Hey Taso... we've been friends a long time. Has sex or innuendoes or even a single PM ever come into play??

    No innuendos at all. It's all been very explicit :bigsmile:

    I'm not one of your friends but I have almost exclusively female friends here, and I think I've made maybe a handful of comments that are NOTHING like some of the crap I see other guys say/post.

    I find all of them attractive, and would not cheat with any of them.

    My best friend is a woman, that I think is beautiful, and I wouldn't cheat w/her either.

    I'm a huge flirt. Both here and in person. My husband is used to me flirting. I'm sure he gets aggravated sometimes. But with the right girl he can be a flirt too. The difference is that I flirt with most people (guys and girls). He would only flirt with someone he'd probably actually wanna sleep with.

    Now, I do OVERLY flirt sometimes...and I probably embarrass people sometimes. I really am just having fun. It puts a smile on my face, makes the day go by faster, and yeah...it can be an ego-boost.

    Sometimes my flirting gets taken the wrong way and when it does I am quick to tell the person that I am a flirt but I am harmless. I have no plans to have an affair. And while I flirt and post innuendo that's as far as I go.

    Some of the people that I flirt with daily though have become some of my best friends. I really care about them and hope that everything is going well in their lives. And when they hurt I hurt for them. So yeah...you do get close to those people. And I guess it would be easy to cross a line. But I don't.

    I flirt with all women. Always, on this site and in real life that's just my personality! It means nothing! I like to see a woman blush, I like to have fun and make people feel good about themselves.
    People take this stuff too seriously.


    Oh and if Doctor drewsaid it on TV said it it has to be true!

    Furthermore, assuming that presumption is true then men always cheat and women never do!
