Yes they can be friends. One may have feeling for the other but the person maybe scared of coming out as that may lead to the end of the friendship. So they just remain close friends instead. We all have that one person of the opposite sex that we can't get sexually attracted no matter what they do, yeah I can keep such kind of girl as a close friend. But bestie is a no no for me. I don't even do best friend with my fellow guy, it is now girl I want to keep as bestie. Just friend is enough abeg

I don't really know about older men and women but as a 21 year old, I have a female friend and I never felt anything for her until recently 😢

It is so hard because you have to hide it from her

Though creepy thoughts might come in once in a while but you can stay as just friends if you want.

Yes.There's nothing bad about it. Only in Nigeria are we seeing it as a big deal. I had 2 female friends with whom there are no strings attached. I met the first one on a journey. We travelled on same bus from Abuja to lagos. On the way, bus had an issue which took hours to fix. We had to stop in Ibadan around mid night.

I told the driver who insisted he must proceed to lagos that I'd not risk it and that instant, the lady too alighted. We picked the only available bike which took us to a nearby hotel. The lady wanted paying for the room but I insisted on paying so we checked in. We passed the night in same room, nothing happend. Till today, she holds me in high esteem. She's married with a daughter already.

I invited the other lady for a medical outreach. We agreed to share same hotel room and we were there for 4 days after which she left for her location. All it requires is discipline. We're best friends today

Yes full time. Not all men want sex from women , not all women want money from men ..If you ever find a genuine friendship of the opposite sex .you will know life is not all about sex. The main thing they should all draw their boundaries when necessary.
Maybe a friendship relationship with your family members though...

The selfishness of human I have seen is, those who like to keep opposite sex as their best friends are also ones who hate seeing their partners with opposite sex most. Very selfish creatures !

Abeg, die the matter. Men and women can only claim to be friends when a man desires a woman who doesn't reciprocate but decides to keep him because he is useful to her. They maintain such friendships because they use the friendship to get men to do things for them. Such women hardly sustain friendships with other women because their female peers understand their game.

In most male-female friendships, it is the woman who is benefiting

Very thoughtful answers.....

I have two female acquaintances that I will rather regard as friends. But they both told me “we are not friends” - the feelings are usually too deep that they will feel cheated as “just friends”


I don’t mind keeping a female friend if she is not billing me and we are not seeing each other (online stuff)

But if we are always together or she is billing me. It will graduate to friends with sexual benefits. But still friends, cause most women today aren’t women I can make my woman. Too liberal. The unliberal ones are too dull for my liking.

Verdict - Me and Woman can’t be friends. Don’t trust me if I said your woman is just my friend. I will rather avoid your woman than make her a friend.

What type of frienship exists between a dog and lion?
You can be friends if you are not sextually attracted to each other.

You can be friends if you don't see each other.

You can be friends if the friendship is well-defined.

Usually, friendship betwen a man and a lady will end in Marakana.

You won't know when you will shift the boundaries, ie your goal post.

From what I have seen & known over 3 decades besties don't say no to sex. They may start with you took advantage of a friend. One thing is sure she will come back asking for the same. Flee from all apprearances of evil.

One is likely to enter the place when you have a female as a close friend. It's what i call friends without BORDERS.

Absolutely yes.

To say there won't be a time when you will mostlikely crush on eachother is a lie...if you have that grace to cross this stage without any ill feelings...you will be best of friends.

Although, only few man and woman friendship cross this line unscratched...it's takes loads of grace and maturity from either or both of the party to overcome this tempting phase.
