I think it depends on the initial attraction. If there is an immediate physical attraction, then it's much more difficult. If that doesn't exist, then the chances of just a friendship are much better.
But I think that there are lots of friendships out there that are only friendships because one of the parties involved (usually the woman) only wants friendship, nothing physical. Friendship to her, frustration to him.
of course they can. but you will find that AT ONE TIME at least one was attracted to the other. (usually) but i have TONS of girl friends that neither of us would do anything with.

I have almost all male friends. In fact my best friend is a man. I always got shit from people about it though. "Oh they are only friends with you for".... So I was really curious to hear what other people thought about it thanks for your responses.

I have more fun chilling with the homies...chilling with chicks on the other hand, is fun when there is some innocent flirtatious shit goin on....and another reason dudes chill with chicks is to get them to hook em up with their friends...
So tell me what you think can men and women be just friends?
some of my closest friends are women. sure it can be done, but there have to be rules. one of you has to be strong enough to say that you won't cross the line, and it's cool. if you date, and it goes wrong, you won't be friends afterwards.

Sure they can, but I think it's a whole lot more likely with two older or more mature individuals and the hormones are not running their minute-by-minute life. If the physical attraction wasn't the highest priority item on the mutual attraction list, it's a lot harder to give them up entirely. You still desire for their companionship, conversation, support etc. Why can't you both continue to enjoy that?
I think they can. I mean I do have a lot of female friends that I wouldn't do anything with even if they came on to me but then if they came on to me they wouldn't be true friends anyways. Well, in some situations they can so I would have to say men and women can be just friends.
I think so... at least I would hope so because almost all of my friends are guys and the friends that I feel comfortable talking to about almost anything are the guys.
It's hard though when you meet someone and you just want them as a friend and they want more...
