Men and Women <> Friends

I have always had this argument with everyone and also heard it today on the Tom Leykis show today.

My point:

Men and Women CANNOT simply be friends. Men and Women have no right to be just friends!!! I'm not saying that you can't have a "friend" of the opposite sex, but usually these "friends" are from either chasing them at one point and the sexual tention died out, OR you were introduced through other friends. Anyway......just wanted to create a poll and see what you techies think.
 
heh, i dunno about you, but ive had many female friends that were nothign more than that, met them casually in class or something.
 
yes, very true hahaha

all my female friends are platonic hahah


i am reminded of chris rock...

"women are offered sex every single day.

hi how are you? how about some dik?
let me open taht door for you, how about some dik?"


rofl so on and so forth
 
Sure men can be friends... Just as long as it takes to get into their pants.
Just kidding.....
I am a man surrounded by nothing but women. Sure you can just be friends. It even reaches the point sometimes that the only females i can stand are my wife and daughters.
 
I here everyone say well I have many friends.....lalalalallaa


But lets face it guys.......how many guys here like the company of a female just because...

Do we like the shopping?
Do we like the gossiping?
Do we like the nagging?
On and on....I think everyman wants or have wanted to get into the pants of a female. The tention is or was there at least at one point.

I know I would not like it my my g/f had a friend that was a guy. She has guy "friends" but they never go to Hawaii or talk on the phone like I would with my buddies or she would with her girl friends. Same goes vice versa for me.....


Think about it.......how would you feel if your wifey or g/f went to Vegas with her guy friend???

Or for you ladies.....what would you think about your man going to a nice dinner with his gal pal???

Vote so far is 7-15-2
 
Just shows how differently most of us grew up--at some point the boys weren't allowed to play with the girls cuz their dads didn't want them to become "queer".
From that point on, each side grows up in a different environment, then wonders why they don't understand each other.
 
I've found that in my experience, guys don't generally hang out with girls "just to be friends." While it may end up being a strictly platonic relationship, at the bottom, the sexual tension between male and female is one of the key forces that makes the relationship "stick."

LOL Ah Leykis 101 😉

I think it can happen with women you are SO not interested in its not even funny. But someone you find attractive? Oh hell no 😉

I always feel like if it's not me interested in them, then it's usually the other way around.
Also, it's impossible to avoid (IMO). There still can be an intellectual attraction, even if there isn't a physical one....
 
of course women and men can be friends! In fact, most of my friends are women... yeah.. every once in while you slip up and hook up for some reason but usually things go back to normal afterwards... Just don't let your emotions spiral out of control!! If you meet a good girl and it turns into a relationship, great! if not, still great! as long as you have a good friendship.

You should never let a few hurt feelings get in the way of good friendships!
 
Well I had to deal with this earlier, a girl that I met who I wasn't interested in at all kept pestering me, and now that I got to know her, I do like her, yet she doesn't want to date. 😱
 


<< Most of my friends are female. Most of them I have never had any romantic interest in whatsoever. >>




So if one of them spread eagle, you wouldn't go in for a landing?

Depends on which one. Most of them, no way. There's maybe one or two I'd go for though.
 
I've got plenty of female friends...the ones that make the best friends, however, are the unattractive ones

[edit] added female
 
I have quite a few female friends and there are no "sexual tensions" with them, mostly because I am also good friends with their s.o.'s

Trouble only arises when you are making new female friends - ran into some trouble in that department.
 
I have friends who are women, and we'll just be friends -- nothing more, nothing less. I don't see what the big deal is.
 


<< I've got plenty of female friends...the ones that make the best friends, however, are the unattractive ones >>



Cannot confirm that.
 
Guys, lets not talk about the gal pals we've had since elementary.........lets talk about after puberty. If not for sex, for attention, or for the sheer joy of having other guys jock you for the girl you're with (whether it is a friend or more), Men and Women have no need for each other.


What do you guys get out of "being friends?"

A friendship. What a silly question. Not everyone's life revolves around sex.
