Do you the MN jury think it is possible for men and women to be just friends!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jazzicatz]

?

Yes they can.

Yes, it's possible.

yes, I have male friends / however I do get a touch of the green eyed monster when Dh has female friends (not that I let him know though)

yes, definitely

yes of course they can

Yes.

yep

Yes, of course.

yes, of course.
in the same way as we don't need chaperones any more and we are allowed to vote

Yes, what Harpsi said.

But not every woman could do it. And nor could every man.

I have quite a few male friends that are purely platonic - but I still find myself thinking about them as men as well as fiends - if ya know what I mean!!!

it is possible...of course it is possible....but it is not always the case.

prob doesnt help you much!

fiends

Hahahaha how Freudian is that!!!!

i think so
dh has a bezzy mate who is absolutely drop dead gorgeous, and i MEAN delish,

wouldnt touch him with yours, but he comes round some days to have a brew with me and knows that dh is out.

must add we have been friends for about 20 years and he is very trusted and just a piece of the furniture, despite his good looks, he is a great pal to us both.
dh has no problems with ti at all.

Yes def, i had lots of male friends when i was at college and i still do know, i've never had a problem with it, infact i seem to get on with men far better than women sometimes, not so bitchy (sorry girls!!) and most of them somewhat younger than me dh doesn't have a problem with that and if he did i would have told him where to go!! It's all a matter of trust really isn't it and some men (and women) are very insecure and paranoid!! In any case i think we all window shop and have a look if we see a gorgeous man in the street but thats natural and it doesn't mean that we love our dhs any less.

you can have male friends, find them attractive, even have a little idle fantasy.. but that is where it should end.

you are human, you are allowed to find men attractive! nowt wrong with that

I have male friends, who I can talk with about anything when I see them. However, if I was single and everyone was willing, I would probably be happy to do half of them. It's nature.

My point being that as long as I don't find them attractive then yes, it would be possible to be just friends.

yes but if you fancy them, you have to shag them first and get it out of your system.

can gay men have male friends and be just friends, ditto lesbian women?
