Yes, I believe so. Players often have many friends because people are selfish wether they want to admit it or not. People can see one of their best friends cheating on their partner and blatantly lie to her face but still remain his friend because he is good to them, at least to their knowledge, and then they blame allowing their friend to act like a douche on "not wanting to get involved".

+1 yA player isn't good for anything except stirring up drama.
I'm sure they can be your friend, and even introduce you to some interesting people!
... just don't sleep with, or try to date a player, lol34 Reply- +1 y
Lol a player isn't for drama lol that's why he's a player lol

@Papi-Daddy you’d be surprised! He might think he’s not but he often seems to create it lol.

Mm then he isn't meant to be a very good player
I'm not a player but more importantly I think a better question is why are player and slut synonyms but gender specific and each term has obvious inconsistency in gender equality. Player sounds like it's a game and you excel at it. A slut is a female with the same attitude yet it's derogity and frowned upon to be one

Because a slut doesn't play a game. She simply has sex. Players play a game because they could win or lose. Sluts cannot lose so its not a game.
+1 yCould be a friend yeah. They can be funny, perceptive, intuitive. They can have all the qualities of a good friend. What makes them a player is their desire to sleep around. But if you're friends you don't have to worry about that because friends shouldn't be fucking each other anyway. Sort of ruins the dynamic.

yes... a player can be a good male friend. He avoids other players and prefers handsome boys as friends because they are a honey pot for girls.
I don't think a player can be friends with girls, at least the one who used to be my friend couldn't talk with women on casual level10 ReplyNot really from my experience I’ve had a friend who was a player and tbh he never gave a shit about anyone else other then himself all he would talk about is how he was fucking all these girls and how he’s so great easy to say got repetitive fast so I left him behind

+1 yYou seriously think a player would have time for a girl that just wants to be friends?
Lucy: Hey wanna come to the movies with me and Sarah?
Hannah, Bridget, Mel, Bianca: Hey I'm bored want to come over and fuck?
Who do you think will get to spend time with the player?
People that have abundance in their life only spend time with people that provide value to them. A platonic female friend only takes time away from a player that they cannot get back.00 Reply
+1 yMaybe. It could end up back firing if he’s a bad personality and no morals. They could manipulate you to keep you single so they can use you and make you do what they want to help their needs.

This is true, got to be able to outsmart them, but it’s not hard really.

@RaindropSparkle yeah but they could intentionally ruin your relationships to keep you around to.
- +1 y
Nah, only if you let them.
- +1 y
@RaindropSparkle yeah I’m personally not into the game playing and would rather just avoid those types entirely.
He can be a good friend. Just because you're bad in one type of relationship doesn't mean you're not good at different types. Just look at Joey from Friends
20 ReplyThat depends on what you mean by good friend. A good friend in my opinion is someone you can trust. Someone who will not make you uncomfortable or put you in situations that do, excepting for your betterment of self. And someone who in the chips are down will help you out of a tight spot.
Can a player do these things? Yes they can. Is it likely for them to do so out of the goodness of their heart? Probably not.20 Reply
+1 yOf course they can still be good friends. As long as they are not trying to get into your pants and treat you like a friend instead of a girl they want to pick up.

+1 yYes but I think a player is a bad personality to be , you need to be good and truthful and always be free from playing games

+1 yMy best friend is a women that sleeps around but to me she is a great friend. We have never had sex nor do we want to. We've talked about it. Lol

+1 yHahah I liked the "either" part. I guess no, usually players see most girls as prey, not really friendship material, and if they flirt with you from the very beginning, chances are they won't change their mind just to be your friends.
10 ReplyMy bestfriend is a Player for girls and he is a great friend because he teach me things to help me get out of my introverted side.

+1 yLoyalty defines friendship. Players know what loyalty looks like, but haven’t grown enough as people to embody it in principle.
30 ReplyI've never met a player who had good friendship with girls. The few that I know either only have them for booty calls or side pieces. Never have I ever seen them just "be friends"

+1 yIf the guy is legit not into you at all in that way but is ok with being your friend?
A woman would greatly benefit from this cause she could pick his brain to be one step ahead of any guy she’s dating22 Reply- +1 y
Truth (also if she’s smart enough to avoid his game).

You get it
Yeah he can be a good friend, if he is your friend then you learn the type of stuff guys do to pick up chicks and also if he doesn’t try to hit on you then it’s funny to see him work his magic

+1 yHe can, but be careful. He’ll still probably try and get with you.
20 ReplyYes, we know how to be good people oh, we just don't practice all the time
10 Reply3.1K opinions shared on Relationships topic. Yeah. Maybe hard for you being a girl and him being a guy, but flip it. Can a slut be a good friend if I am a guy? Of course. It may not be as easy if I was a girl, yet it doesn't make it impo.

+1 yDepends if he has morals or not. Some guys are just popular with girls and thats called a player, where some are liars and cheaters and they are called players so it depends what we are talking about.
