Do you believe that men and women...?

Question

can be just friends? Do you believe a single man and a single woman can hang out, talk a lot, and always remain just friends? I'm talking about adults, not 14 yrs old....

Answer 1

No they cant be just friends cause men are always looking to get in a woman's pants.

Answer 2

Well there has to be some sort of attraction. I have known people like this and they said the person was great....Just didn't feel any physical attraction there. So I say if you have mental attraction and a little bit of physical attraction anything is possible.

Answer 3

Point to make is THAT YOUR FRIEND is looking for more.  What do you want?

You two really need to talk when he wants one thing and you think he wants something else.

Answer 4

I believe its possible.One of my best friend's is a guy I know for 8 yrs.I hang with him and he treats me like a baby sister.Of course, in the beginning he had a thing for me.But that was years ago.I told him that I wanted to be just friends.Now we are like family!

Answer 5

Sure! I think single people can be great friends without having a romantic relationship. With married people, I don't think its a good idea. But for singles, sure they can.  

Answer 6

Possibly, but they both will need to face the possibility of it becoming more than platonic.  If only one of them has doubts, then I'd say not.  An open and honest discussion between the two parties  is probably a good idea.

Answer 7

well there are chances that at least one of them gets  attracted to other...

and this according to me is more of a case so pure friendship is not generally possible  

Answer 8

Just freinds yes, but one of them will always want more than just a friendship even if nothing sexual or physicall goes on.
