Can a boy and a girl be best friends?

[skittles2017]

Yes

No

[J-Rock]

Unfortinately no. Although everyone wants to beleive it's yes, that would be a lie.
Guys are only motivated for friendship with a girl they are attracted to, would sleep with, or would date. Even if they have no intention of dating. A man will never pursue a friendship with someone they find unattractive.

There are a few exceptions such as if it's a relative, or like a buddies wife/gf.

[madhatters4]

at times my closest friends have been females

so yes i think boys and girls can be friends and even best friends

[kikikat95]

Only if neither is attracted to each other even then sexual tension can rise because it's not just about physical attraction but mental. One will always fall for the other so it's difficult to find a TRUE AND HONEST TO GOD platonic relationship. Many times they might grow feelings but never say anything

[CubsterShura]

I have a guy best friend. And no looks don't matter. I look fairly good and he's handsome too but we're not attracted to each other.

Give it some time

[CubsterShura]

@_caaaaaaam for what?

[OpalLi]

no it's impossible, i have 2 such fails, you must be really ugly to have a guy friend, or he must be a gay

[Ranude2011]

Whatchu mean? My ex was my best friend, which became like a sister to me

[OpalLi]

i see that my post don't like men 'cause they think that it's offensive but it's true
girl can be friends with a man to whom she feels no attraction

[OpalLi]

it means that guy is ugly or gay

[EvilAngel114]

2 of my closest friends are guys. We consider each other best friends and that's all we are. Awesome friends, no drama, no complications, no sex. Just friends.

[KRock323]

Yes but the relationship May try out other paths. Depending on the persons in involved. But ultimately if it's what they both want they will stay best friends

[XXVikingxX]

They can if they've known each other since childhood, but when u try and be friends with a girl that you've met not long ago it usually ends up being a friends with benefits typpa thing or a relationship

[Robsinsf53]

My best friend is a woman, and I've known her for 40 + years. She is gorgeous too but, after knowing her so long I treat her like a baby sister.

They Said Bestfriends Turn Into Some Thing More... I Have A Boy Bestfriend

[Malaya]

It can be both yes if they are not attracted to each other but no if they are

[Billium]

yes, my best friend is female. We have no romantic intentions. ^-^

[zazuun]

I guess but for me, I prefer not to and I prefer to have an SO with the same view as me.

[Svennedude2]

I think it's possible. Especially a homosexual man is compatible with women due to common interests.

[Sojex]

As long as neither party does any flirting with each other or makes it seem like there are any feeling other than 100% platonic, then yeah it's possible.

[MrPrettyBoy]

Definitely yes i got some friend who are girl but i'll not considering them as best friend because I don't have too many interest in common with them, and having some girl as best friend is a must thing , that's my point of view.

[ArcherKet]

Yes, there is nothing wrong with being best friends. Many of my closest friendships are with females.

[PsychoBambi]

Hell no. All these cucks in here will say yes but at the end of the day it's impossible.

[hotstuff85]
