Can a good looking man and woman be friends?

Question

My boyfriends tend to have lots of female friends. I always find out they slept together once or twice smh. I now do not believe men and women can be friends especially if they are attractive. Convince me otherwise 👀

zeitgeist057 · Accepted Answer

Yes, but also you are right about the sleeping with lots of them. I have plenty of female friends, and I've probably only slept with about 10%-20% of them. The other thing is I don't think you should worry too much about him wanting to repeat the sex. I can't really speak for everyone, but typically we are just curious and attracted to beautiful women. Once we've had a taste or two though, it's more or less a satisfied curiosity/craving, and we can move on about our business.

Another thing is sometimes two attractive people just don't have chemistry. So yeah, they are both hot, but they've already kind of bounced off each other and realized the sexual chemistry wasn't there for one or both of them. Or you might think they are attractive, but your boyfriend doesn't. I've had female friends that I knew were attractive to others, I think they are very beautiful, but there's something about them that doesn't do it for me, and if that's not there, I'm not into sex.

If they both are attractive.. then maybe if they have great dicipline and awsome respect for the boundries.. and even then they still may have feelings, though they don't act on them.

But I think it is also possible to be unattracted to someone because of their mind and how they work, while also be able to be great friends with them.

You know, like, some friends we really love as friends but could never hang out with for too long or could never really count on but they still have their times to shine in the right setting. After all, not all friends need to be 'best friend'.

Looks are subjective so just because you may think they’re good looking doesn’t mean they’re attracted to each other.

I have a girlfriend that’s beautiful and a guy friend that others thought of as super attractive. They weren’t physically attracted to each other and are just good friends.

If there’s physical attraction between the two, I think it’s different & not a genuine friendship.

PeachyPie93 · Accepted Answer

I think they can be, most my guy friends are hot or good looking. As long as no one is willing to push something to the next level, things can be purely platonic seeing as I have never slept with one of my male friends. (Tho maybe because I am not good looking?) 😂😂

Account · Answer

For sure. One of my guy friends is conventionally handsome. However, I am not attracted to him and he is not attracted to me. We have been friends for a very very long time though

DarkWinterNights · Answer

Sure, but not very good friends. Men and women bond differently. My best friend is like a brother to me. I could never have a close relationship like that with a woman without it becoming romantic. There are undoubtedly exceptions, but those are exceptions to the rule, and anyone who says otherwise is likely ignorant to their friends feelings.

Finchie40 · Answer

You are correct for the most part , most guys’ can’t just be friends with a girl , unless there is no attraction between them what so ever , The truth is , no guy is going to invest a lot of his time into a girl , that he just considers a friend or says they are just friends , if he is investing a lot of time into her , he wants more than just friendship with her , Don’t fall for that shit , Girls’ do the same exact shit to guys’ as well ,

molonski2 · Answer

I'm not going to try and convince you , as some reason has probably stopped them being together longer , but I know in my straw pole , have always virtually been together at some point , as circumstances evolve , I could give just so many examples , but I need protect the guilty , like myself.

There is always another ( maybe deeply recessed ) agenda.

Billlewis · Answer

They can be, but it's a little dicey, as you've apparently found out.

IslaTheWitch · Answer

I have mostly male friends... I have never slept with any of them. And it would not change. Friends are friends...

Anonymous · Answer

They can be friends if that’s all she’s willing to be w him. He either has to accept that or move on. But on a man’s side most of us want to sleep w our female “friends” if they’re cute, hot, sexy, etc. The only way that may really work is if he’s into men. But no most men would fuck their female friends.

Guys tell me that if we’re friends, then they want benefits

I did this test with my wife's male friends. I had her text them offering to have sex with them. Any of them that agreed, were blocked immediately. If he is friends with that many, but only with you, and doesn't send them anything sexual, then its not a problem, If on the other hand they exchange sexual stuff, its an indicator that he will cheat on you.

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

I have lots of female friends too. I haven't slept with all of them.. Some of them yes. My partner knows exactly though because I have been straight with her from the beginning.

Awesomesauce2005 · Answer

In my experience yes, i have about 4 female friends and none of them have shown any interest in me sexually or romantically. I have never been in a relationship and that is not by choice. Apparently i suffer from "nice guy syndrome"

Drew-1990 · Answer

I think they can be but not if they have been sleeping with each other. That is just asking for trouble.

Biancam13 · Answer

Of course. Being good looking doesn't mean they are your physical type or that you'll have romantic chemistry with them.

Simslover92 · Answer

Yes but only when one is not attracted to the other.

dustybiker2 · Answer

I grew up with a herd of them. Slept with none of them. They see brothers to me.

WhitneySnow · Answer

They can but a lot of times one catches feelings for the other. This can happen regardless of attractiveness.

Yannae · Answer

I am the living example of that. I don't feel anything for them other than friendship. By the end of the day, girlfriend knocks them all out of the park.

douride2 · Answer

I have been friends with a guy since back in grade school. Just friends nothing more. If he has ever had thoughts otherwise he has kept them to himself.

Nikki1989 · Answer

I have many male friends that are good-looking. I work with a few too.

BonzoInBitburg · Answer

A guy can have female friends if she not attractive

deus_ex_sisyphus · Answer

I'd say its personality dependent, unless you give him a reason to look elsewhere for meeting needs.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Yes, but only if there is no romantic attraction from either. I'm only guessing because I am average.

Anonymous · Answer

What would be the point? God made attractive people to breed and ugly people not to. It's just natural selection. Why do you want to go against natural selection?

Big_Country · Answer

I agree with you! I can only speak for myself. If I have an attractive female friend I'm going to try to have sex with her. Always have and always will!
