Friendship first.......As long as friendship involves nookie
This begs the age-old question. Can straight men and women ever truly be JUST friends? I say no. A woman is perfectly capable of being around a man and having no intimate feelings toward him, but not men. Sorry, y'all are too programed for survival of the species. I've never known ONE male/female friendship where the guy wouldn't sleep with the girl if given the chance.

Ivory - I know this doesn't sound realistic, but I have a LOT of male friends that are just that - FRIENDS. Since I'm a sports nut and involved with Scouting, camping, hiking, etc., I'm around a lot of men all the time who are really good friends of mine. When we've been on long camping/backpacking trips - we've slept in tents near each other, changed clothes in front of each other, etc. with not a sexual thought to be had. Just considered to be 'one of the guys'  Now, having said that... there have been a couple of other times where things progressed to that 'next level' even though we were supposed to be just "buddies". Close friendships can lead to really great relationships. As the song goes... "I could fall in love with you... so easy, so easy"...   |

I think in my case it might be the other way around. :laughing:  |

Oh dallas, trust me, I have no doubt that YOU have nothing more than platonic (or is it plutonic, anyway) feelings for these guys. But do you think if you offered to sleep with any of them, they'd turn you down? Of course not. That's what I meant about survival of the species. My theory is the only reason why a man is with a woman who he hasn't slept with yet, it's because she hasn't given him the opportunity.  Awww IRLM, don't sell yourself short. You're in college for cryin' out loud! Trust me, I'm sure you'd have NO trouble finding anyone. |

Uh, Mr. Panty Dropper? Who is that?! Since I'm single, I have a lot of male friends. Many of my closest friends are men.... they take care of me and care for me in ways a lot of my women friends don't, which is sad. I just read that and it sounded a little... suspicious... but I think you know what I mean. I've never asked any of them if they had.... thoughts... and I never will. And they know that there isn't a snowball's chance in hell for *that*. I guess I'm saying, I don't care if they want nookie. "That ain't NEVER gonna happen." It's like tdallasw was talking about, too.... I am a college football fan, so we do a lot of that together. I like Bruce Lee movies. ;D But I'm not a mannish woman. HEE So what was my point?  Well, I guess I'm saying as a single mom, I need my male friends and they watch my back. I agree.....a friendship first is the best way to start anything. But I've been friends with many of these men for so long (10 years + for most of them) that we all know it's not going anywhere else. But I'm not going to say that's never crossed their minds, because I still don't know how a man's mind works. (And I don't want to even guess!) But new friends...... ;D ;D ;D I won't say no to new friends.  Wait a minute.... *that* sounded wrong, too..... I'm shutting up now.  Peach |

Well, in that case, I'm not even going to look at men's personal ads, let alone answer them.
"I want a love I can see, that's the only kind that means a thing to me"
"Whatcha see is whatcha get"
My answer to can males and females be JUST friends: Yes! And definitely while both the males and females are still in school.

Well Peachy, I don't want to sound like your mama, but it sounds like you've got some guy friends who are pretty decent dudes. Maybe you should entertain the idea of getting closer to them. ............ But then again, if you're happy being single, go ahead, do your thing! ![]() temptsinfo.com/smilies/wtg.gif![]() |
