Im a guy and I jus wanna know what u girls think. Personally I know for a fact that 90% of the time guys are interested in a girl when they persue an active (quite close not just casual) friendship.

Are girls the same?...personally ive found most girls who are friends with me always seem to be interested...so I am assuming most girls r the same as guys and have evil intentions lol.

Discuss.....

Sure. I'm close friends with a lot of girls. I've never had attraction to them. I mean, they're beautiful and wonderful people, but that's just it. I see them as people. As friends. Not my next one night stand.

If I'm interested in a girl, I'll try to get to know her better and if I feel it's right, then I pursue and try to take her out on a date or something.

Same, except with Guys of course.
I mean, it is possible, but it just hasnt ever happened to me.

sometimes both the people can be interested, other times one can only want a friendship. it just really depends on the people. for me, i usually like most of my close friends who are guys. xD

Uh, of course. Quite a few of my guy friends are also my best friends and I know for a fact that we're not interested in one another.

i have never talked to a boy before.

..

haha jk

yeah of course, well in some cases its not..
im friends with a guy, and we've been friends since like 5?
still have no feelings for him

Yes, of course guys and girls can be just friends. I have had an attraction to some of my close guy friends, but it went away eventually. Some of my other guy friends I've never been attracted to at all. It just depends.

same but with a guy not girls. all my guy friends are just my friends never been attracted to them but i'm only interested in being thier friend. i mean i am friends with guys that i have been interested in and they were too but it didn't work out and we are still friends and moved on.

Of course...although it can be a bit difficult to not get attracted. My bf was one of my close guy friends...turned out that we both had feelings for each other =]

Yes it's possible if there's nothing between the two of you and u can keep it that way. I have guy friends that are just friends and nothing developed.

not always, i have a few close guy friends that i don't see more then a best friend. i've dated one of my close guy friends for awhile but it didn't work out but we still are as close as ever.

That's a tough question. I suppose maybe? I thought I would strictly stay friends with like one of my best guy friends, but then we started to wonder what would happen if we dated, and we tried.. and well it didn't work out so wonderfully. *shrugs* I guess it just all depends?

I think relationships develop between guy/girl friends, because most people like to get to know the person before pursuing a relationship with him/her. By being friends first, it kinda helps people to decide if it's just lust or a genuine liking. And I guess that being friends thing first works out well with people?

But I know what you're saying. I dated one of my close guy friends.

We want to kill eachother, but until experiment boy vs girl has ended, we will pretend to be friends with the opposite gender and hang out together and be great friends.... TILL D DAY.

Well it really depends on what kind of person you are. If you're like my best friend & will fall for any guy friend she has, then I guess it might not be possible o.o

But most people aren't like that. I mean, I don't like my guy friends like that XD

Yes I am a girl and I have several realy good frends that are boys.

I have been frends with the boy next door for as long as I can remember we do alote of things together. I am older and we go places like the pool or mall or movies all the time he has a little brother and sister to and some times they go to

yes unless you are a whore.
or really desprate.
you can just be friends with guys.
i have 2 really good guy friend that i hang out with all the time.

I personally have never liked any of my guy friends It's definitely possible to remain strictly friends, even intentions wise.

of course...

i mean a guy might get to know you well, be your friend and then ask you out
but i have loads of guy friends who are just mutual and don't like me like that

Yes, sure it does. Although I am a counterexample, the majority of guy friends that I have liked me before, but we manage to stay friends, although getting a bit separated.

i have tons of guy friends...

but..i must say...they've pretty much all liked me at some point...which puts an odd twist on the friendship considering i'm just trying to be friends with them.

my one best guy friend who was like a brother to me.....yeah. turned out he was basically in love with me the whole time...and then sabatoged our friendship so he could get over me.

it's lame...

I think it's quite possible.

I have several friend-girls who I like and everything, but I would not want a relationship with them.

Mostly because they go through boyfriends like a Panzer division through French provinces, but other things too...

It's very possible.

Just because a pair of friends are of different sexes, doesn't necessarily mean that they have alterior motives other than just being plain ol' friends.

With me, having a few close guy friends, sometimes even best guy friends, is easier. Because girls can be stereotypically whiny, over-dramatic, and uptight from time to time. Though I love my girls to death. Guy friends can be more laid-back and chill.

no. i have a bestest friend for a guy & i know for SURE we will NEVER EVER have feelings for each other, or EVEN think about each other that way. i concider him as a brother i guess.

There can be friendship only between a guy and a girl. But it is true that such friendship are more likely to develop in something more. To a sort of tender feeling. I have lots of guy friends but I dnt get too close to them because I dnt want anything more than their friendship.

lol yes.

my friend and i have been friends since grade 2. i guess if we were in any way attracted to each other it'd make a cute story. but nope.

we can finish off each other sentences and most of the times think a like. it's kind of eerie.

like i guess if we were to spend the rest of our lives together it wouldn't be a bad match.

however there's no attraction at all.

so we're just truly friends

I was actually pondering this awhile ago,

though it is sometimes true,
(personally I believe at least half the time that's the
reason why guys and gals get closer),

there are acceptions..

This year I was just hoping to get to know a
few friends better and strengthen some friendships but..

Alas, my attempts always end in failure.

I can. Then again, I'm not really into guys...lol.

Yes.
This guy & me were best friends for like EVER.

Except, he started liking me. But I didn't like him. And he had a girlfriend.
And then like a year later.. I liked him for a few days and he didn't like me and I had a boyfriend. But we never went more than just friends. We were best friends until I changed schools.

Yes they can be. My best friend is a girl. Yes she is one of the only things I care about , I wish she was mine. But we aren't together. I'm fine with that though. I'm grateful enough that I have a friend like her

"Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship." - Oscar Wilde

Hate, love, all of the above may be supressed in order to maintain the illusion that there is only friendship and nothing else.

Yes, I'm great friends with four girls:

Grace
Trilby
Sarah
Sassy

I'm friends with 3 girls at work:

Liela
Julie
Caitlin

and I have no sexual feelings for any of them. :]



Yeah, but you still have feelings for her... It doesn't count... >.>

It's totally possible to have guy friends for me.
sometimes I do become attracted to them, once I get to know them better though.

I personally think so. I have a guy friend and I've never felt an attraction or liking to him. He's just like the brother I never had.

Yep, if both of them are gay.
