Really! Can A Man And A Woman Be Just Friends? by Nobody: 8:46am On Oct 22, 2014
[b][/b]Guys and girls can’t be just friends, since someone always wants more. This is something we have heard our whole lives, but I believe that guys and girls can just be friends.



There are plenty of guys in my life with whom I’m just friends, at least. We would never court each other because that would be gross — and I know the feeling is mutual.

I do feel like we all have that friend, however, with whom we missed the opportunity. The one with whom, if the time were ever right, maybe you two could be together.

It can get confusing: How can you not fall for someone you see almost every day? Someone with whom you have a close, comfortable, platonic relationship?

What's ur opinion?

its always good to define ur rship with someone... Make it clear to dem...dnt always expect dah dey will hav dsame feelings as u do towards the rship u hav with dem.... U never knw, 50percent of the guys u say r just frnds with u might hav a feeling of wanting more out of it, 90percent wish it wr a frnds wit benefits rship...den d remainin fraction r just dr to get oda benefits.... Hope am hitting the nail on the head..

I think it's impossible when
1. You are both single
2. You are still getting to know each other.
3. If one party sees you as more than a friend and what's more but is scared to tell you because he/she fears losing the friendship..this happens ALOT
4. If there is some history. Past history of some sort.
5. Hmmmmm mmmm! ....thinking! !

Rapsainot waaa gbayi jawe

** Clears throat**

When you get to a stage in your life when you no longer worship or adore kitty-cat, then you will be acquinted to and start appreciating good and kind hearted ladies who just like your friendship with no strings attached

I have a female friend whom I love so much, she cooks for me, takes very good care of me and watches over me in terms of illness ** lemme just call her my deputy mother **

Most times, she came to my room and chilled with me, even take a nap.. It will just be so dumb and immature of me to start thing I had to take one useless opportunity

For me its a no..it is either the guy falls or the girl,and in most cases it is the girls(when u are free with the guy,spends time with him etc)that is when u start seeing faults in ur bf ...it's like u don't know how fragile ladies hearts are

Guys and girls can be friends, even best of friends with no strings attached.

Though, in some awkward situations some ppl try to take advantage of the friendship. thinking "If our bond can be this strong as friends then it might be stronger as lovers" but that is very wrong!

I had a female friend like that once, even though she told me that she really loved me, and that if she is close to someone and the person trys to ask her out her friendship will diminish. I stupidly went ahead and asked her out just because I knew her relationship was not working. lo and behold, she withdrew herself completely since then. I still regret my actions till date
