| Can the Opposite sex really be friends?
Posted: 12/9/2005 6:50:40 PM | Something from Bash.org:
A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired. | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 9:20:12 AM | I think guys make the best friends. I mean if they are strong guys as alot of guys once they get a girlfriend and the girl says I don't want you talking to her anymore than they don't.
I guys are the best friends most of them are loyal and not petty | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 11:01:26 AM | | The opposite sex can definitely be real friends. I prefer female friends and I have many good female friends who are just 'friends'. I don't know. They just smell nicer. A relationship that stems out of friendship is always the best relationship. | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 11:09:13 AM | I actually think it has a lot to do with the social circle or friends of the person. Ive met wonderful ladies that I have enjoyed spending time with but unfortunately they generally have a few people within their circle who either found me to be a stumbling block towards their agenda with the lady or the girlfriends have differing opinions of my intentions. These meddlers are definately detrimental to a friendship between a man and a woman.
These situations can get pretty bad for some when others get in-between two people who genuinely are friends. People tend to manipulate others if they carry some weight (their opinion matters) and they tend to exercise it and so on.
In my life I have walked away from many lady friends due to their social circle. Sad truth is people can be inconsiderate and do and or say things aimed to hurt people who are genuine because they either feel threaten or abandoned.
Relationships that are friendship based, in some degree are like buying or renting a home. The amount of enjoyment you experience can be and is usually directly related/attributed to the neighbours (or friends of the other person). | |

Sure. We're pigs afterall. But not all pigs are shallow. Some pigs dig for truffles just because they're hungry, while other pigs dig for truffles because they find truffles extraordinary. | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 12:41:57 PM | | I have mostly male friends. I have one friend that i've known since I was 5 y/o and one that i've known for 5 years. With female friends it's more stressful, all the gossip, bullshit, and who knows what else. With guys, it's joking, goofing off, and advice about other men, lol. | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 3:52:15 PM | Although I have female best friends, I can understand how it may intimidate a boyfriend....not all guys have sincere intentions...being a male and having a female best friend, you have to be careful, def a plus to become friends with her boyfriend. It helped in my situation, because I was actually there the first night one of my friends met her current bf...and we're all friends now.
As a man or woman, it's important right off the bat to let your current interest know that this is my best friend, introduce them...let them know they are important to you, and nothing is going to change that. | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 4:34:52 PM | | Absolutely. My single best friend is a woman. We have never been romantically involved. We have discussed it but we both agree we are not willing to risk the tremendous friendship we have. We unconditionally love and respect each other....and we crack each other up. I also have plenty of other friends that are female as well as plenty of guy friends. The same reason I am friends with the guys are the same reason I am friend with the girls, shared values. It is also great to be able to get a trustworthy, honest, woman's opinion on matters (Another perspective so to speak). | |

Posted: 12/10/2005 8:51:48 PM | | I see no problem with having men and women friends. honesty and as long as it is purely friendship.Discussion groups, weight loss groups buddies that help motivate, encourage and enlighten don't have to be the same sex as you. Those are the best friends to have... Each of you are a friend of mine and lol you are not all the same sex... | |

Posted: 12/16/2005 5:22:19 PM | | one word; NO. I prefer having male friends. But they always were kind of waiting in the wings hoping to get a chance with me. And when they got girlfriends? i was history. Too bad because I can't stand being around women. | |

Posted: 12/20/2005 6:09:49 AM | Thats a good point Hawk!!
U shouldnt giv up ur male friends cos a guy dont trust ya!
regardless wether the male friend fancies u or not!
if anything was gonna happen, it woulda happened long ago,
so u kinda control the situation on that and trust has to be there
or it wouldnt work! And yea! whose to say that boyfriend will always be there???
and if they r planning to stay around!! they should get used to you and ur friends, or their be changing you into someone they want you to be! not who you really are!! | |

Posted: 12/20/2005 8:58:53 AM | | YES!!! All of of my good friends are males; some of these gentlemen, I have known for over 14 years, so the answer is a "definite" yes. I truly believe that men make the best friends!!! | |

Posted: 12/20/2005 11:02:07 AM | | I have two best friends, one is female and one is male, and I find no difference between the two! My best malefriend(for 5yrs now) is like my brother. Men and women can totally be friends, as long as they both only want to be friends..and I agree about the backstabbing girl comment, I have had a few girlfriends just rip me up behind my back....the few women I am close with are intelligent mature people, and more like me I guess, not overly girly....not to say that overly girly girls backstab, I don't think there is any correlation between the two... | |

Posted: 12/20/2005 9:10:51 PM | | your wrong. I have a really good guy friend going on 11 yrs now , It is strictly friendship and nothing more . WE hung out on a daily basis , went to movies together and dinners walks downtown and attended parties together , we met at the local college and he taught me how to play pool we have been friends ever since , we confided in each other all the time. Recently he moved out to Alberta he still phones me all the time . he met a nice young women and is now engaged he is planning on coming back in March to see me and introduce her to me .
