Can platonic male and female relationships work?

The age old question can we just be friends? So can a straight single man and straight single woman be just friends? I believe it is as I have a few platonic male relationships and we have got along just fine.

Why do some people treat their romantic partners so much worse than their friends?

Seems like some peoples worst behavior comes out in their romantic relationships. Why do those people think it's okay to trample over the person they claim to love, but then show their platonic friendships the affection...

Would I be lying if I said I never had a boyfriend?

I'll try to keep this as cringe-less as possible 🤡 So I had 3 boyfriends when I was In elementary school. The relationship was simply platonic. There wasn't anything romantic besides the fact that one of my "Ex...

True or false: it’s very rare for a truly platonic friendship (where both have been single for a long time) to ever become a romantic relationship?

And I mean truly platonic. When you hear of friendships which become relationships, they were either in other relationships before or their friendship was never truly platonic (like they’d held hands or kissed before).

Does he want to date me? Or is this just a platonic relationship? Can I have your honest take on this? Should I take the initiative for a 3rd date?

There’s this guy at work who I think likes me. He does friendly-flirty banter with me, tries to touch me, non-sexually, tries to be around me at work, has complimented me, walked me to my car, stares at me. He asked me...

The True Origin and Intent of the Term 'INCEL'

Okay, so I came across another #INCEL question (this one asked by a presumably self-labelled INCEL, but it was not specified), and frankly, the responses prompted this take. Some things need to be clarified. Let me first...

Flirting

Why do some guys show attraction, by staring, hitting on even sexually hitting on me repeatedly but they seem averse to simple touch?

My love language is physical touch. If a man isn't giving me the right kind of physical affection (platonic), like hugs, or something and if he does it but it doesn't feel right, then its unlikely I will really want to...
