Yes it is very possible to have an opposite sex as friend. I wants to talk as a lady, its only depends on the kind of guys one choose to be friend with. And Also if as a girl you are have a male friends do not expose your body in his presence and also do not do anything to seduce him because a Man will always be a man. Be plain with him and trust yourself too.

Also, to be sincere a lady can not be a Platonic friend with a guy she is attracted to, you will find your self seducing him and he will end up having you and then you will now be claiming that he took an advantage of you. Please be sincere with yourself.

it's easy to have but not when u have a relationship, those i did was the reason for the break ups i had, not so eay to keep most especially because u might end up BANGING and that might be the begining of the end of the relationship, but it is very possible, 10 works out of hundred, Peace

yes, it possible but the issue is both of them must know each other spouse and the spouses know them in return, if not that affection may (most) likely set in and one or both party may loose control

A platonic relationship is possible,but quite difficult.Yu can't really blame aguy when he is bombarded with sexual imagery all day round,can yu, ? Wink Another factor to consider is the motive of the guy for keeping the friendship( could be to upgrade to the next level later on,who knows)
Anyway,its all about keeping limits and standards, make your limits and stick by them as friends.Ur relatnship might get better after a well intentioned "NO"

Meanwhile, Viera is to AnuGirl as SOJ is to, ?

It is a given law of human relations that if you spend a LOT of time with a person of the opposite sex who you like a lot, ideas will start creeping into your head, and it's only a matter of time before your ideas turn into actions. And it's even worse for the guy.

I have platonic girlfriends, but i maintain a stay-off/stay-on relationship with them: when i start getting the hots for them, i maintain a good physical distance for  a while. I can do it because i'm slightly asocial - if she don't like it she can f*** off! But It's hard, really.

I think u'r right. Like me i don't make friends with Single guys bcuz definitely something wuld come out of it.

So, by u getting close to single guys means u want them even

[b]Sally: We are just going to be friends, OK?
Harry: Great, friends. It's the best thing, You realize, of course, that we can never be friends.
Sally: Why not?
Harry: What I'm saying is - and this is not a come-on in any way, shape, or form - is that men and women can't be friends, because the sex part always gets in the way.
Sally: That's not true. I have a number of men friends and there is no sex involved.
Harry: No, you don't.
Sally: Yes, I do.
Harry: No, you don't.
Sally: Yes, I do.
Harry: You only think you do.
Sally: You're saying I'm having sex with these men without my knowledge?
Harry: No, what I'm saying is they all want to have sex with you.
Sally: They do not.
Harry: Do too.
Sally: They do not.
Harry: Do too.
Sally: How do you know?
Harry: Because no man can be friends with a woman that he finds attractive. He always wants to have sex with her.
Sally: So you're saying that a man can be friends with a woman he finds unattractive.
Harry: No, you pretty much want to nail them, too.
Sally: What if they don't want to have sex with you?
Harry: Doesn't matter, because the sex thing is already out there, so the friendship is ultimately doomed, and that is the end of the story.

For me absolutely because i have more guy friends than girls and i flow better with guys.  Well the whole thing of taking it 2 the next level i guess that's normal, i have that problem and not only with friends but also with guys i date, always wanting 2 take it 2 the next level.  Na jst communication be the key, if hin dey harbor more feelings na hin biz because i always make it clear from upright what am all i about and my whole attitude reinforces the notion.  Wink Wink

bottom line is, in a gir-guy frienship, theres always one person with sex on their mind, and y'all know who that is. lol Grin
i think its up to both parties to clarify things with each other so it doesnt get out of hand. most of my friends are guys and for some reason, all have wanted more than friendship. am i now going to give in to every one of them? i feel the same way about 1 or 2 of them, but you just have to draw the line somewhere. its really hard too Undecided

hey but why do gals pretend they don't have sex on their mind too?
its both ways but the gals pretend.
at the same time its possible like in my own case, before i started goin out wit my girl, all my my female friends esp the tap ones were subject to me laying them down. i mean gettin into them, but since when i became committed every other girl remains a friend no matter how close. because i decided not to cheat on my girl.

The thing is women have more control than men, like Soulpatrol said, u feel attracted 2 a couple of them but u have 2 draw a line somewhere and knw that you will not cross such boundaries, guess u ddnt read the post huh? Undecided

@ iice. hi five, girl.
@dolarpo. some men think with their "things" unlike women that can control themselves. besides i think its harder for a woman to come out with it than a man because of such a thing as "double standard" . a woman is called names like a ho' or slut if she expresses herself the same way as a man, thats why she pretends.   Lips sealed

thank you

i tend to mingle wit gurls dan guys.i trust gurls more dan i trust guys.i dnt no what dey feel for me but dey defin8ly havnt put it into action.den again it mite b because i set ma mind str8 wit them n dey no not to spoil d friendship for sex.
so dey treasure ma friendship n forget sex because dey no ma motor on that note is "sex lasts for ten minutes,friendship is forever"

so ma answer is still yea,guys n gurls can b PLATONIC  friendz when u set ur mind str8 with eachova.

yeah its very possible for a guy and a girl 2 be just friends and also very close ones. could be so cloz to a girl and never ask her out no mata how sexy she is. but sometimes some girls allow the thot that they are priti enter their skul and they start assumin d guy wants to ask them out and they start behaving fake. on the other hand some girls start trippin for the guy even when the guy doesnt want it to go beyond friendship level.

but its all good, i feel we should be able to open up to each other and let our feelingz known. i would hav lost my girl if i didnt ask her out when i did. she didnt want to go into any relationship and all she xpected from me was on friendship level, but i took the bold step and boom!! lets go out for what is ours. and girls please lets not be hostile. if its a NO let giv it gently. ladies shld try to understand that guys got feelinz now.

so i see nothing wrong wit d guy wanting 2 take d relationship to another level. he has a soft spot for the girl and he wants to express his feelinz for the girl, shld he continue killing himself in silence pretending thinz shld remain platonic? bullshit.

if i were the guy and i like d girl, even if she givs a blunt NO, I'm not givn up on her, i'll giv every shot possible.  Cool Cool Cool.
