do u think a guy and a girl can be real best friends without any sexual intents? i mean girls we all hav our best friend who we tell our every secret and bidness. tha question goes for both sexes, do u think ur best friend can be tha opposite sex or do u already hav an opposite sex as best friend?
please don't give a yes/no answer, try and give tha reasons behind ur answer.

like me, i wud say not really cos i've had some guy friends whom i like with no strings attached but they always wann@ be more than just a friend.

I think you can be best friends with a member of the opposite sex, but there will always be the sexual thing hanging in the air. Experience is the best teacher.

Yes and No.
Reason: there's usually a past or a future, maybe not from both parties but at some point, romantic feelings come into play and if care's not taking the friendship may be lost completely. personally, it's not a problem for me to be friends with a guy with no strings attached but you never know, the slightest thing you do could trigger feeling from the other person.
But being best friends with the opposite sex does have its advantages.

NO THERE IS NO WAY THAT OPPOSITE SEXES CAN BE FRIENDS
,
BECAUSE YOU WILL START OF THINKING THAT THE PERSON IS YOUR PROPERTY, AND THEN YOU WILL BE JEAULOUS WHEN YOU SEE HIM O HER WITH ANOTHER PERSON , AND THEN YOU START TO FEEL SOMETHING FOR HIM O HER THEN GOING ON
ONE WAY O THE OTHER ,   

           YOU WILL FIND OUT TO BE IN LOVE WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND

Yes

I had a male who was my best friend, we used to talk about everything our bf's gf's. we went shopping and stuff.

Then he fell in love, that was it she wouldnt let him see me no more and we have only talked twice in last year once to tell me he was going to be a dad. its sad that his gf did not trust him to be my best mate, but there was never any sexual interest between us

I personally do not fancy that girl-girl best-friend tingy
girls are trouble and nuthin else! they're full Of jealousy alwayz bitching around and back-Stabbing.

I have loadzz male friendz than female friendz and besides guys Can be the best Of friendz, I've got this friend who's just Sooooo he's Older and whenever we're chatting and im bout to say sumtin Silly he just goes like ''Rhodalyn! and immediately i know i got to Stop what im bout to say and he Says it authoritatively, U know like a big bro Sort Of thing but we Used to talk naughty Stuffs Sumtymes

gurlz are gurlz and will alwayz be gurlz!

YEAH SURE
ACTUALLY GUYS TEND TO MAKE THE BEST OF FRIENDS
MY SECRETS ARE IN THE HANDS OF A GUY AND I KNOW THAT THEY ARE SAFE
HOWEVER I ALSO HAVE A GIRLFRIEND WHO I TRUST WITH MY LIFE
ALL I DO IS ACTUALLY CHOOSE MY FRIENDS AND DONT GO ABOUT MAKING ACQUAINTANCES AND CALLING 'EM FRIENDS

GIRLS-GIRLS
GUYS-GIRLS
GUYS-GUYS
HOWEVER IT IS JUST MAKE THE FRIENDS AND DO NOT GET IMPOSED
NOBODY ''BITCHES'' ABOUT WHAT THEY CHERISH

word!

. Rhodalyn l reckon with you l once had a best friend who is older than me and single he treat me like his younger sister advice me when there is need but afterr so many years he feel in love with me. l felt he wanted to take advantage of me but after 2year l realized l could not do without him and we dated for 1year and he travailed out of the country. since then l have always make boyfriend my bestfriend because that make us more intimate,

hmmmm

of course yes. i have 2 best friends and they are girls. they have their boyfriends and stuff but they mostly chill with me and we sometimes discuse girl's stuff and shiit like that.

some of my closest friends are also girls. its not a big deal. i joke around with them and we have so much fun. to me, i dont really care about their sexes cuzz they are so cool and stuff like that. i sure miss them cuzz one is in the UK and the other in Canada.

In other words, 'Can A Guy and a Girl Just Be Friends?'

yeah, they can be just friends. thats the kindda r/ship i have with all of them and to tell you the truth, you will gain more than their boyfriends sef. they are always there for you and they never let you down. if a girl says i trust you, believe u me, no matter what happenes, she will always have your back.

olodo!!! u won't call it duplicate or whatever when tha person didn't see tha previous post or wasn't even yet a member when tha similar thread was posted. now wud u?

Of course yes.My best friend is a girl and there is no romance to it.I have male friends, okay, but the girl understands me better.I know her guy and she knows my babe( former babe, sha).

My best friend is a girl and there is no romance to it.

Translation:
- She's very very fat.
- She has small breasts.
- She's ugly, simple.

Yes they can be if and only if they find something repulsive enough to keep them from being lovers.

LMAO @ SEUN. Admin i ve 2 complement u nd say dis has been one of ur funniest moments on NL.


But back 2 d topic, i think the answer is yes. One of ma bestfriends is a guy, very very gd lookng (nd sometimes i feel proud dat m his real gd frnd cuz of all d galz dat see us 2geda nd give me dis " u re lucky look")

But we grew up 2gether, live on the same street in Niger, go 2 d same church nd went to the same primary nd secondary schools, nd have have almost the same frnds. And i can assure nybody who cares 2 know, dat there is no sexual tention btw us. We are just cool frnds.

@Diddy, who is diz ur gurl pal for Canada that I don't know? I wanna know ohhhhh

hmmm, i see.e be like say na dat toronto she dey sef. i go ask her proper cuzz i didnt care to know since im not there.

yup!! Three of my best pals r guyz!!

CAN YOU TELL A DOG TO BEST FRIENDS WITH A JUICY BONE??
well for me to have a girl as a best friend would be very difficult , except if she isn't pretty and does have any curves at all cos if i am around a chick thats so pretty my mind won't help but imagine , what it would taste like, :oi have a girl thats my friend but not best friend, i keep the distance by imagining that she is HIV positive cos she's quite slime, anyway it actually depends on ur maturity, for me i havent over come that level,that is to see them as just friends with no strings attached,

Seun, no offence but I think u have a one track mind.

yes, they can be,, but it takes some level of discipline for them to continue as 'just friends'

My best friend is a guy.And there are no strings attached.

At a point in time, u both wanna try the 'thing', but truth is it never works.

So the answer it YES a boy and a girl can just be friends. And further more BEST FRIENDS!

hell ye opposite sexes can be besfriendz ma besfriend iz a guy nd i tell him everything. ive got more guy friendz dan girlz coz girlz can be b*tchez sumtimes
nd ye derz alwayz gunna be dat thought of bein more dan friendz
trust me itz better 2 stick 2 bein jus friendz
sumwhere down da line me nd ma besfriend tried ta be more dan friendz buh it dint quite werk out
we still as tight as eva nd i gat sum gurlz hatin on me cuz we so tight nd dey think we a couple
even ma ex boi had a problem wit him. . .buh truth be told i wudnt let nobody nd i mean NOBODY come between me nd ma besfriend. i luv him ta def

well i do not know how u guys see this
well from my own point of view its almost impossible
cos from best of friends it will lead to somethin deeper

they should

i know that they will eventually make love /sex
now note thar when one of them now decides
to move on the other feels deprived
