    I don't know. I want to believe so. But with pretty much all of my male friends wanting to fuck me at some point or another, aeven though I say I'm not interested and then they don't want to be my friend it becomes disheartening.

      I had a best male friend for twelve years, but then he told me what he wanted to do to me sexually so I had to dump him, because the trust was gone. He got very upset, and cried, but he should have kept that shit to himself, because he knew I would NEVER be attracted to him ever!

        That's awful . Yea, I don't think there's any hope for me with male friends.

          Yeah, it actually doesn't make me very sad, because he was my dear friend, and I would have taken a bullet for him, but there's no way in Hell I'd ever do anything sexual with him. My main feelings toward my ex friend are resentment, and disgust.

    I'd say it wouldn't work like 80% of the time, I'm just some moron on the internet though so don't listen to me.

    People who don't spend 90% of their time on the Internet would know that you can be just friends with the opposite gender.

    Yes. You can also find someone attractive without wanting to get sexual with them, sort of like being straight and seeing an attractive person of the same gender. It's a wild concept to some people but yeah some have self control or is just capable of genuienly enjoying someones company regardless of gender and sexuality.

    Yes of course. I have no difficulties being friends with guys without catching feelings. I don't know about guys though but I cant see why it would be a problem

    I think so. I had a girl that was a great friend through highschool (im a dude) Now I only ever had friendly feelings, guess I can not be sure about her feelings but we stayed friends.

    I'm inclined to say no. However, I think its possible to live with those feeling and never have them cause problems.

    Nope. It always ends up mwith feelings and you're better off finding out if a relationship will work or not. Don't torture yourselves pretenting you are just friends.
