Can guys and girls just be friends?

In college [as I'm assuming where the video was shot]? Hell no [and the video proves it].

However, post college it is possible to just be friends but there will be sexual tension from one or both people in the friendship.

That's the point being made in this thread.

I am married, so the rule no longer applies to me, liar.

Why? Because you don't think about sex with anyone other than your wife. 🙄

Because I am otherwise engaged (married), the rule does not apply to me.

Read the rule.

THE RULE DOES NOT APPLY TO ME BECAUSE I AM MARRIED (otherwise engaged) (The fact that I may or may not think about having sex with other women is irrelevant since the rule does not apply to me in the first place.)

So you can form friendships with women without wanting to have sex with them? As soon as you get married you can now make friends without thinking about your cock?
 
I'm not sifting back through 7 pages to find some arbitrary absurd "rule" you've made up.

Answer the question.

"Girls and guys can be just friends, but if the girl wants to have sex, it will happen (unless the guy is otherwise engaged, asexual or gay (and maybe even then))"

I did not make it up. It is a fact of nature.

Your question is irrelevant. Stuff it.

It isn't a fact of nature, because I and my friends, and others in this thread, disagree and the "fact" becomes fiction.
 
Ah, the perfect argument for someone who has no argument. Just insult the person making the argument lol.

You're the one that brought up yourself and your friends. I just pointed out the error in your position - It is based on faulty data.

Yes. The girl I work with is about 2 years older than me (ie. we are both young), we get along really well, I'm not attracted to her (and never will be), and we're friends.

Do you believe she is attractive to other men?

If she said she wanted to start a relationship with you or simply wanted to have sex, would you turn her down?
