Personally I have a majority of female friends, but there are thing I can't tell them because I feel uncomfortable with them. I have a friend with whom I can talk about anything, he always tell me about his relationships and about personal stuff and I feel that I can share some stuff only with him. Women friend sometimes can be to judgy while with male it's not like that, they judge too, but they do that in a different way, that doesn't make me feel sad or bad for something I did or said.

Do you believe that friendship between a man and a woman exists?
They can exist for sure but one will want to fuck the other or it may be mutual and neither will bring it up. There’s logically no reason for that to not be the way it is, if a guy and a girl can hang out and have fun all the time talking all day probably very close and vulnerable with each other that sounds like a relationship. Personally I know that I only talk to people that I can gain from whether they’re funny or always very interesting conversations or they’re attractive to me. Meaning I’m attracted to most of my female friends or they’re a lesbian. I won’t ever bring it up with them and as far as they know I’m not attracted to them in the slightest. That’s just how man and women friendships are someone wants to fuck and just isn’t saying it.
Yeah cause I do not get romantic feelings about every guy I’m friends with, some might be attractive but too young for me, or too old, or incompatible personality or lifestyle or culture or ideology or balance of powers or work or too much disharmony or Inequality in investment or poor communication, the only time I would avoid being friends with a guy who is single is if he is attractive and I do not want to date him and I am not attracted to guys too young or too old for me, even if they are 10/10s.
Yes 100%. I have many guy friends that I knew since I was about 10 and they’re more like brothers to me. We’d never ever like each other like that, would be extremely weird. Not everything is about sex and attraction. People can be friends and truly not want more. I’ve experienced this with my own friends.
Nope because not everyone wants to have sex. This I KNOW for a fact and don’t need people on the internet telling me my friends are down to have sex when I KNOW they aren’t. I don’t have a friends like that and a lot of my guy friends are either virgins waiting for the right person or they’re not even people who sleep around and only do it with people they love, so yes I KNOW my guy friends don’t want to do anything with me apart from be friends and I’m honestly I’m lucky I have people who aren’t wanting anything else other than that
Maybe your friends or you or people you know may want to just sleep with any and everyone but not all people are like that. Don’t try justify your shitty mindset by trying to say everyone else is the same when they really aren’t 💀😂
You as a young woman still have a lot to learn about guys.
These guys are virgins for lack of options, not interest.
Believe what you will, but almost all guys are like that, we might hold back or say what women want to hear for whatever reason but doesn't change the facts.
It’s actually so so so sad that you believe that. You don’t know these people whatsoever nor do you know their choices they’ve made for themselves. Lack options? They date and see people but they make it THEIR choice to hold off because of THEIR own reasons.
Again, not everyone just wants to have sex with any and everyone so please, AGAIN, don’t try justify your shitty mindset by trying to say everyone else is like that too when they’re really not.
I know what men are like and yes a lot of men are like what you say but I’m telling you my friends are not like that whatsoever and I’ve met manyyy guys who aren’t like that, who don’t just sleep around lmao BY CHOICE.
Exactly! So glad it’s not just me who thinks this. Men who think like @K-I-S-S I try to avoid haha. Definitely not the kind of boy I like to have around and I say boy because no man has a desire to sleep with everyone they come across. Lots of people want genuine friendship and that’s all and those are the people I like to keep around.
I have female friends, some we have no mutual sexual or romantic interest, some were interested in me at some point but I wasn't, with some of these we stayed friends anyway, with other we don't talk very much anymore. Now I have a female friend whom I met online 6 months ago and we are very close and text each other everyday funny things, we had sex and cuddles and kissed for about a month but she told me she just broke up from a 3 years relationship and wants to 'make new experiences' and not having to worry about anything. So yeah I am suffering a bit at the moment.
End of the story: sometimes it works, sometimes not.
Yes it does exist and that's the beautiful part about being a friend a true friend. But the only way that it can exist as if you're a 100% honest. I have more friends that are girls that I do guys. And that's because we can talk about anything. And you have to be careful because when you have that trust in somebody like that it's easy fall in love but you both have to be bigger than that I know that the friendship is more important than the failing of a relationship gone bad

No. This question gets asked on here a lot. Acquaintances? Sure. But best friends? No. Friendships are built on trust. Women don't trust men they don't like and men don't sacrifice their time or money for women they don't like. So once those two feelings become reciprocated, the recipe exists for something more.
Case in point, I am married but I have a close female friend I've known before I met my wife. The unspoken resentment, the awkward exchanges, the flirty compliments. Man and woman are not meant to be "just friends"
Even Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, the epitome of on-screen platonic professionals, screwed each other after 7 years on the X-files.
It can exist - but most of the time there is something more than friendship underlying it, the man usually has some additional interest in the woman, almost every time. its not overt but its in there. Does that mean they cannot enjoy a friendship? Of course not. But its really 100% platonic.
He secretly wants in your panties honey. LOL This is settled science - there is no such thing as a strictly platonic man-woman relationship - one or the other will always want more. There's a reason they were attracted to each other in the first place.
Yet you quite obviously admit you liked him beyond a friend at first. And you're willing to stick around despite the rejection and label it "just friends".
It was when we weren't friend and I was 15, at the time I fell in love with a nkther boy who became my boyfriend and I understand that mine was just a stupid crush and I understand that I love him just as a friend
So you're actually trying to convince the world here that because you like some guy that men and women can be friends? Dear lord you're dense. For gods sakes woman. Why did you even ask the question? Just to be validated? Uh, no. Just fucking no.
You've mistaken me for giving a shit. Block away. I will if you do. LOL I hope you like cats, cuz no guy worth his salt will ever put up with all this bullshit from some dumb girl. EVER.
Many of my closest friends are men. Most older than me.
All platonic, though one has previously confessed love and another shares my physical affection (I have a French-Canadian affection and he's Brazilian - we kiss cheeks and hug frequently).
Communication, respect, and honesty. The same things that make a romantic relationship work, works for platonic. It's just there's a different level.
Couples and couples can be sure.. But not solely. Unless it's a professional relationship and they both have partners or one has a partner. Now I know why everyone always either asks or declares they are not in the market.
Otherwise someone's gonna make assumptions. You know. Lol. or people just like to gloat when they're not single they are no longer single.
Yes but he would hit it if ever given the chance. I've told some fine ass girls i used to want to fuck the shit out of them but was glad we were just friends and those are the ones that will drop their boyfriend off and come do whatever you need em to because they know your intentions.
Yes it's possible, I have a couple of close female friends neither have any interest in anything more and I don't have any interest in them, out relationships are more like brother and sister.
Yes they do exist. Most of my close friends are guys , we're not attracted to one another. Sometimes it helps to get a close males opinion as a girl when it comes to relationships and video versa.
I have several good female friendships! The only real reason why they can’t is if we choose to be disrespectful and look at everyone through a sexual focus. Woman all become toys and men all become all dogs.
but there is no reason why we can’t just respect one another.
I had several female friends. A couple of them were really close to me. Yes, there were times when I used to wonder what it would be like to be in a relationship with them but it never happened.
It does exist, i have met my parents friends who have really close friends of other gender, and till this day their friendship zone haven't died down. Cause they were at each other side at their lowest point.
My bestfriend is female. She is also my wife's bestfriend.

It only exist for innocent good kind guy who are willing to hold her hand in public and say Iove you the perfect guy. That friend shit between men and women only works for the good guy.
Woman doesn't friend with Chad who rips pants at first date. Wake up guys don't believe the friendship shit between men n woman there's no such a thing. Don't believe fairy tale you have been warned don't take dating advice from women.
sure it can, if they’re not attracted to each other. personally though i’m not really friends with any women, they can make great acquaintances though.
assuming they are single and spending so much quality times together , one of them will surely will catch feeling sooner or later ( well , unless they are dead inside)
