Is it true that guys and girls can't be just friends?

I've been in friend groups with alot of females, I haven't had any further feelings for them. It's possible.

I saw this really funny video about this where a guy went around and asked a bunch of people this exact question. Every girl said yes and every guy said no. I'm a girl and I say yes girls and guys can just be friends., haha go figure

They can be friends. But at some point, there is a high percentage chance that at least one will fancy the other (possibly even fall in love with the other one). So, if their friendship can survive that, then they can be friends.

WANNA BE MY FRIEND

It's false. I have female friends who I'd never ever even contemplate being in a relationship with and feel nothing for but the usual mild affection.

I have several close female friends. It is easily possible. I find a lot of them to be good-looking but I don't have the desire to go any further than friends with any of them (well MOST of them).

Its absolutely impossible for straight guys and straight girls to just be friends. It will always result in one of two outcomes. 1. One of them will massively break the heart of the other one who developed or harbored all along "more then friend" feelings and finally got up the courage to express it. Usually the terminology told is "I just like you as a friend", which translates to "I am not attracted enough to you, or I think I can do better".

2. A romantic relationship develops over time. This is far more rare then outcome #1.

It just wont work if both people are straight.

Remember,

There are plenty of Gay Guys and ugly women

Decent looking straight guys and gals are never just friends. There is always sexual tension.

Ugly dudes have girls friends.
Ugly chics have guy friends.

Gay Guys and gals, friends, bffs, frenemies, tennis buddies, everything's on the table.

Pantz

They can't. I thought i had male friends until i met my boyfriend. They disappeared after that and did not even care to meet him. Funny cauz there was nothing sexual going on.

boys and girls can be friends but if your attractedto them it probably makes it a bit awkward.. but if your not interested in them at all romantically then its totally possible to be friends

It's impossible.

one or the other will always get hurt.

They cannot be friends, everyone that says they can... you really do n t know if you're 'friends' wanna touch your naughty spot

I could never be just-friends with a female.

Women are made for fuccin...

its definitely possible. plus you have to think about homosexuality as well.

Ya, and you can STILL be friends even if you think about having sex with them because most of us know how to exercise a little self-control and don't act on every single sexual impulse we feel.

It is possible, but the problem that often comes about is that either:
a) the guy has feelings for the girl, but the girl does not have feelings for the guy
b)the girl has feelings for the guy, but the guy does not have feelings for the girl.
I do have many friends that are guys and we are just friends, the only problem is for me that most of my guy friends have a tendency to start liking me and it sucks.. hmm... I guess that a guy and girl can be just friends once in a blue moon.

Men and women can be friends, just not close friends. The closer you get, the more blurred those lines are.

I think they can. I have a lot of really close guy friends whom I would never think of as anything more than just friends. But it really depends. There are some guy friends of mine who I have liked, and some of my guy friends have liked me. So it's tricky, but if the guy doesn't like the girl, and the girl doesn't like the guy, then they can just be friends. Otherwise the friendship usually doesn't end well.

WHY ARE YOU EVEN ASKING THIS ISNT IT OBVIOUS THAT THEY CAN... People now day....

Im a guy and have many female friends. I've dated a few i addmit however, there are some that I could never be attracted to. They are good looking but compleatly not my type, so I think its very possible to have the different gender and JUST be friends.

Most of my guy friends I only like as a friend, but I don't know if they only like me as a friend. But of course they can just be friends.
