I'm sorry to hear that Risk. I have two best friends. One is a guy and we're like siblings. I have feelings for him, but I like the sibling relationship better. So, yes it is possible.

actually it is possible ive had a best guy friend for a year now and we havent gone any further we can tell eachother anything even the things that normal girlfriends and boyfriends could talk about. Hes someone i could trust and it would just be too wierd going out with some1 thats really close to you like a brother.
I had a best guy friend for 11 years. Until this year when he left me stranded here, and told me that he never wanted to see me again. He had raised me, and promised to stick by me always. But guess what, he didn't. A year is nothing compared to a true friendship.

Yes, they can. Sometimes a friend of the opposite sex can be a better friend to you than anyone of the same sex. I have girl-friends that are fantasic, but I tell m guy friend-Jon-more things than anyone else, and I can trust him more. Guys don't seem to have that oh-my-God-guess-what-I-just-found-out mentality.

Yea, i know so, simply because my best friend is a guy and i dont know what i'd do without him. I know i wouldn't take it any further than a friendship, and i hope he feels the same. I think sometimes though people can cross the line of feelings, and get emotions mixed up. Plus sometimes girls tend to think more into it so when a guy treats you like a sister and protects you, they may think differently, it all depends on the people involved.
truth be told: my best friend is a guy (im a guy). my best friends that are girls are like sisters. i agree with what was said earlier though, if you do want to try to take it further bear in mind that the friendship could disapear completely wrether or not the relationship goes sour. believe me i know: my younger brother has fallen for a long time friend of ours, to the point where he cant think of her as a just friend anymore.
the answer of course is: "HELL YEAH!" i personaly have lots of buds, both guys & girls. as far as the relationship going farther goes, nobody can really say because each situation is different, but i can honestly say that my buds that are girls aren't interested in me that way & the same goes for me about them. we just hang out, goof around, & genuinly just have fun together.
i think its possable for girls & guys to be friends because ihave a lot of guy friends and I'm not even gonna front i have become attracted to my male friend because of the things they say and how they'll treat a girl if they had 1..but i would never cross that line becuase we have establish a line between us being friends and us taking this relationship further.. so yea its possiable u just have to set limit and let one another know whats the deal

Ooh, look at this updated thread! And no. I don't believe girls and guys can be friends without the relationship being taken a step further, or the thought ruining it at least for a little bit.
Lol, this thread is pretty much why I broke up with my last boyfriend. He didn't believe I could be friends with another guy without cheating on him. Pfft. Men.
Bushsupporter, you are so blatantly uninformed its hilarious. While boys may think about sex more often, they won't do anything that moves, and you totally contradicted yourself. Just because a guy is gay doesn't mean he will hook up with any other gay guy. Jesus, bias much? PS. support bush? hahahahahaah what the world is coming to...ha...bush.
My god, yes yes yes, everyone has a ****ing million guy and girl friends. Wtf is with this thread? Will someone PLEASE kill it? It's so stupid it's making my head spin. I think can all see that everyone has a million freaking guy friends or girl friends. SO YES, GUYS AND GIRLS CAN REALLY BE FRIENDS. This thread is completely stupid and ignorant.

Of course they can! Do you think we live in a segregated world were male nor female are allowed to talk to each other unless they get into some passionate relationships?
Only simple and quiet words will ripen of themselves. For a whirlwind does not last a whole morning, nor does a sudden shower last the entire day.
Guys and girls can definitely be friends!!! I have like 7 best friends and 3 of them are guys. Guys are really fun and great to talk to about stuff *Sarah*
I didn't say that guys think about sex with everyone they see. I said they think about it much more often.
Way to make generalizations.

OK, you are probably gay or lying.
He doesn't have to be gay or lying to say that he doesn't think about sex all the time, like you obviously do (otherwise you would not have said what you said). I admire him for having standards for the girls he dates and not being hormone-ridden. Being choosy and being able to control your testosterone isn't a bad thing, especially when it comes to dating.
Besides, it's boys like him that girls like me would like to date. You know, the ones like him who are not thinking about me being naked the whole time when I'm talking to him.
It's guys like you that girls like me try to avoid. (See how I'm not making generalizations? You should try it some time.)

OK, you are probably gay or lying. I didn't say that guys think about sex with everyone they see. I said they think about it much more often. You have taken my words and spun them. I know that it is possible, I said it is easier for "gurls."

Absolutely. Guys and girls can be just friends. Ever since I moved to Washington, all of my close friends have been girls (I'm a guy by the way), yet I have only dated one. We broke up and now we're simply friends.
quote:
It is probably easier for "gurls" than for guys. Guys aren't picky with who they date and if they are really picky, they are probably gay. Girls can go 5 min. without thinking about sex. Guys cannot. To tell you the truth I would probably date any friend of mine who is a girl if it was socially acceptable for me to. Guys have a much harder time with this stuff than girls.
Speak for yourself, Bushsupporter. If that's what you think about guys, you hang out with the wrong people. I can be around girls without wishing I was in bed with one or more of them. It's not that hard.
By the way, I'm choosy with who I date. Why don't you come over and say I'm gay to my face.
