Yeah, I have a few friends that are girls, and I'm not really attracted to them. What I look for in a girl isn't the same as what I look for when I find new friends that are girls.

Agreed. I thought this one girl as "just my friend" but then I started having other feelings for her after we were friends for so long.

My best friend is female and we treat eachother like family. We're very close and just get along so well people think we're dating all time o_O WE have no desire to cross any lines even though all her boyfriends think I'm tryin to.

Nope. I've been friends with girls for years and I have never been attracted to them, we are just friends.

Of course they can, it's ridiculous to assume that every person of the opposite gender that you become friends with is someone that you're attracted to in a girl/boyfriend way. I have plenty of friends that are girls that are awesome people, and I'm not attracted to them. We're good friends.

At first glance, it is never, but after that, all the peoples from the opposite sex I know are only my friends.

The only best friend I had, fall in love with me some years ago... Other guys sometimes, besides we're cool, maybe they want "something more".

It's completely possible to be friends with someoneof the opposite sex without wanting anything more as I stated earlier. Me and my best friend treat eachother like siblings and I don't know about you but I'm not attracted to my family.

Do you REALLY believe that she love you just 'as a friend'? Are you sure?

Of course. Plenty of my friends are girls, and my best friend is a girl. We're basically like brother and sister at this point...it would be wayy too weird for anything to go on between us.

It's pretty cool, because I can literally ask her about anything and she'll give me an answer. And I mean ANYTHING...leads to me getting some great tips :P

Yes I'm very sure. That has come up in our discussions and as far as I know she doesn't want anything more. I'm no mind reader but I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have had her boyfriends if she did. She's the kind of woman who goes after who she wants.

Ok, then... Congratulations!

Let's see if you keep the same kind of relationship... I hope I'm wrong*, but I would like to know if you never won't think about her as a woman, and not as a "buddy"...

Anyway, "time will tell..."



*It was horrible listening to my best friend saying "I love you..."

I think that depends on how they mean it. My and her say it to eachother but not like a couple would nor in the same context we have nick names for eachother but like I said me and her are just very close and people think we're dating all the time as odd as that sounds. We've had random people tell us that we make a cute couple and then we're like "No". I've known her for nearly 5 years now and it's not that I don't think of her as a womn. I think shes very gorgeous I just don't have a desire to sleep with her if that makes any sense o_O Her older sister on the other hand *Rawr* lol

I have a friend that's a girl that I've known since Headstart. We've been awesome friends since then and I, nor she, has ever thought of anything else. It'd feel like I would be dating my sister or something.

Teenagers: It's hard to be friends with a girl/guy who you're not attracted to at least a little bit (harder for guys :P). Adults: It's not hard.

I suppose it can happen but I do not encourage the idea personally. I have quite a lot of female friends but the people I'm closest friends with are guys.

Guys and girls can be "just friends". :| People think about sex too much, which leads to society thinking that if you're friends with the opposite sex, it would just end up leading to sex.

In that case, you can have sex with a friend and be friends; it's cool. But is very normal to fall in love with another person.

I go out with "my boys" and I have my girlfriends to, but "the atractive thingys" are very normal... I don't see what's wrong with that.

no and one always has to be crushed, and not even respond to them after telling them exactly how they feel, guessing that they were never really a true friend in the first place and never gave a damn about you just only acknowledged you because you were friends with her other friends and...,e'fopIJEF"POIAFJS

uh yeah...i dont see why not. Sure i have friends for chicks who are pretty attractive but were friends and nothing more. Thats why theres a thing called a girlfriend which i have. And even if i was single i would see things being no different. I dont look for the same things in a friend like i do a girlfriend.

usually if ur friends and try to be more then friend or something in between. everything **** up, if u like the person try skip friendship and go streight into relationships. because if u become friends first which relates to other friends that u both share then it be a harder situation to clean up if it don't work out, trust me it a pain in the ass.

I personally don't think so. I've had two friends that are girls and I was extremely attracted to both. I don't see the point of having friends that are girls because umm, I have nothing in common with them except going to the same school.
