Why is it so hard to want to be friends with a guy?

[Anonymous]

I'm in a relationship and every time I try to start a friendship with a guy it feels like they're trying to get with me. I mean I understand but why can't I just be platonic friends with a guy without it being or becoming weird?

I've given this question a lot of thought, and this is the best explanation I have come up with. Please let me know if my theory makes sense to you, or whether you'd change anything.

I think that the reason it's tough for men and women to be friends is that the things people like romantically are generally stronger forms of the same traits they like in platonic friendships.

Maybe you're really ignorant on how to interact with men platonically. Some women only know how to manipulate men and never actually learn normal male-female interaction. I used to work with a woman like this she was always having this problem.

Yea I feel you. I've had this problem a lot. I like having guy friends but it's hard to keep it platonic.

Yeah. I mean platonic friends should be more normal. They can't help but think of dating you. Its not bad having a girl best friend

[Asker]

Yeah exactly. Why can't I just be normal platonic friends with someone lol

[DavidRaul]

Yeah that sucks. It's good to have nice friends around

Many guys don't want to be friends with ugly girls, your friend likely find you attractive.

Because you have a wet pussy they can’t resist.

You need to find a guy who is gay or asexual.
