sometimes is not that easy for most guys and even some ladies.recently I choose to keep a friend which he confess to me that he always wanted to get close but my influence couldn't allowed him.I like him as a friend but his too soft n all I need do is to distance myself coz he always want us to be together

I have come to realise that you can't have a male close friend as a lady without him asking for your honeypot one day, it's just a question of time.
That's y d re good friends. To share so if he ask y not share.
Re: Can Men & Women Be Friends by Nobody: 2:09pm On Jan 11, 2015
Yes its possible but at the end of d day luv tends to build up n it can be one-sided. I hv a guy as a best friend n we hv been friends fr 12yrs. He is so in love wt me dt ppl evn call my attention to it caus I fail to notice it, bt I dnt tink I can ever date him cos we wud lose d love n respect we have fr each other. I believe that bfs/gfs cum n go bt friends are forever.

Hey peeps

Can men and women really be genuine friends without any hidden agendas. Even after they are in respective relationships(one has a boyfriend or girlfriend or wife ........ .

Doesn't it really work?

Am gonna be straight...
Don't let any man tell you he's gonna be friends and that he will never have the motives of having s3x with you... It could be true at first...but when his other friends come to know about the two of u..they will just shake those decency off his head...he'll start demanding for it...

Make ur bfriend ur best friend...make ur bfriend ur only friend and the rest, acquaintance...

Lol may nigerian girls r soft the one over there .

Here they will teach u lesson grin
Re: Can Men & Women Be Friends by Nobody: 2:01am On Jan 12, 2015
I can be "just friends" with a lady, i really have n problem at all with that, but the truth, we must have something we mutually benefit from urselves (either financially, job wise, morally or itellectually) we must n should have something that brings us together.... that aside I can't (why? Be cos a lady's relationship with a guy, is almost always parasitic, n I don't think, anybody will enjoy that)

girls deeds can put an end to the world even God is not ready to put an end to it tho we guys too have ours but not up to theirs [girls]. I will like to stop here , i respect girls and i will forever be. Girls can never pull a surprise and i don't play their game either.

Those who are not soft minded are the ones who turns bad and mean business not in it for love. But they have once be soft minded but later turns bad either by experience or situation.

Very very possible! When you treat your friends like brothers and sisters then it's very possible. I have a couple of friends like that and I won't trade their friendship for trial and error!

I blv they can be friends or do you date every single person you meet or are all your friends of the same sex?

My best friend is a guy and I have never had any feelings for him I see him as family and we are both really close, I've known him for a very long time and we've never been anything but friends so Its possible, and apart from him I'm close to many guys and sure maybe some wanna date me but they quickly back off cause I have a bf I'm committed to and I turn them down in a friendly manner and we go back to being buddies.

That's where sacrifice and compromise comes in. I believe that's what friendship is all about. When you care about his happiness letting go won't be a problem.
If one of the two develops feelings, that 'friendship' is effectively over and it's best you go your separate ways.

It's no longer a healthy friendship. You can't be a friend to someone who's pining for you.

Says who? It is a matter of selflessness. Even if one has feelings, realizing that the friendship is more important is what matters

You have selflessness on one side of the equation, and 'selfishness' on the other. That's a recipe for disaster.

You set 'em free. It's the only way.

The person who has the feelings has to admit to his/herself. Does he/her want the other as friends or does he wanna walk?

Between wanting the other as a friend vs wanting more, wanting more is the greater reality. The truth has a way of coming to the surface, and when that happens (and it will), someone will get hurt.
