(PS I vote yarp

My bestest bud for years was a fella and the one time we tried to get it on it was like a F.R.I.E.N.D.S episode where we both laughed and laughed and laughed! Completely failed! He's like a Brother to me it was gross and yeh!

I've had plenty of other male friends who have no willy (in my head) and I am convinced haven't had any feelings for me! So I think, quite simply, yup!

Contrary to a fair few of what people say! Most of the people who think otherwise are talking about single ladies and single guys being friends not those with partners. I still say codswollop to them!

Yes.

I also think you can have sex with someone who is a friend and still maintain that friendship, even if you stop sleeping with them.

volospian · 13-12-2011, 09:06

Of course they can. I have loads of girlie friends. In fact at work the majority of my friends are female and my best friend, who I go out to the pub at lunch and to works do's and so on, is female. I'm now also good friends with her husband and we all meet up at each others houses for dinner and stuff, but she was my friend before I met her hubby.

Yes. But you can never help how other people perceive it.

When I was younger I had more male friends than female...sometimes i'd prefer it as girls can be so bitchy

Men are simple

I have quite a few female friends & some of them pop round for T & a film/Chat, No biggy.

Yes from me.

Depends on how ugly one/t'other is. If both cute & fancy each other, always potential for it to change and for rumpy to occur. If one/both is fugly, then chances of body bit bumpage decreases proportionally.

Absolutely, without question. I'd like to think many of the girlies on here are my friends, and one of my best and oldest friends is a girlie, who was also a bridesmaid at my wedding (Hannah, for those who may remember her).

Some people definitely don't understand it though. When I lived in Leeds Hannah and I worked together, and often went off for lunch together. Despite the fact I was already with someone, a lot of people seemed convinced we were sleeping together. They tended to be older people as well, so perhaps it's something of a generational thing in that they never had friends of the opposite sex, so just couldn't get their head around the fact we were always just friends.

Entirely possible. However everyone is different.

For instance I have a few male and female friends who despite being best friends with some girls/boys still fancy the pants off them, so for them there is still a physical yearning somewhere. Although after years and years they know nothing is going to happen and just leave those feelings aside and just support the role of being a good friend.

I know of groups of people who fancied the pants of the other sex but that served as the introduction to a fantastic friendship and the initial "interest" dwindled, and what remained was a strong bond.

I think there is always chemistry needed (irrespective of sex) - this doesn't need to be sexual, but two opposite sexes can get on but it requires something - just like same sex friendships, but I think opposite sex friendships offer different levels of emotional support that compliment one another.

Friends with benefits... well that's a whole different subject worthy of a thread in itself!

For me... I've always got one well with the opposite sex, if other people decide there's more to it, then too bad, can't help what they think. So a yes from me.
