Can men and women just be friends?

[Epimanes]

I don't think so.... At least not from a guys perspective.

2:12, second vid - love the look on her face when interviewer asks: "9 times out of 10, men do not surround themselves with girls they are not interested in. Do you agree?" and her boyfriend agrees - "Wait, so like, you totally wouldn't like, surround yourself with a bunch of orbiters just to have some attention on tap?? Huh???" ... :can't compute:: ::can't compute:: ::can't compute::

Here's what Chris Rock has to say on the subject.

IMHO & In my own experience, No they cannot.

I have few female friend's that I have known for more than a decade and although we talk occasionally, They all would let me fvck them if i tried to. These Women have husbands and boyfriends with children. I, According to many many Women am a very good looking guy and I can get away with saying Inappropriate things to my female friends because they think im hot but i have never crossed that line. If perhaps a girl has a male friend that she does not find attractive at all then she will treat him like a male girlfriend. However, That male friend is an orbiter most likely who likes her but she doesnt like him. You see what im saying here? Either the girl likes the guy deep down or the guy likes the girl. If they are attracted to one another, Yes they will remain "friends" until one day that line gets crossed, Its only a matter of time.

I find that first video really funny because even before i watched it, It confirms what im saying here. All the guys are saying No but all the Women are saying yes and when they are asked if the guy friend likes them, they said yes lol They keep these guys around but have no interest in fvcking them, however every male friend whats to fvck her. Im guessing girls keep these (orbiters) around for validation and to hear things they want to hear from a male's perspective, Like "You look so beautiful Kelly, Im sure you get hit on like 100X a day!" :::Giggle::: "Thanks John, Thats really sweet" But he gets nowhere and then her "douche bag" boyfriend picks her up and grabs her by her ass and walks away with her.

it is not that complicated really...

Men and women can be friends just in case...they do not find each other attractive, or at least the guy does not find the girl attractive.

Talking from personal experience.

I think it can (sort of) work if both parties aren't attracted to each other, but they have common interests. If just the girl is attracted though, she will eventually give up on the guy though, and the "friendship" will end. If just the guy is attracted, he will orbit her for years and whack off to porn lol.

The only downside I can see with the mutually not attracted friendship is that the chick won't respect you. She may like you as a person, yet she will still think you are a loser because you aren't attractive to her. She will never say that to your face, but it will always be there.

I have a great FB friend that I've had for years. When we are both between realitionships we go at it like rabbits, using each other for sex. Then back to friends... I can tell her anything a vis-a-vis, but really there is ZERO romantic interest in either of us. I think this is the only way it REALLY works.

 

[mangotot]

If she is remotely hot, the answer is no.

 

[Epimanes]

Bump.. Because its entertaining and relevent to some of the new threads lately.

 

[El Payaso]

Of course not. Don't be silly.

 

[El Payaso]

Yes . Fvck buddies

Lol. How succinct.

 

[SeymourCake]

I believe any two people who enjoy doing an activity together (other than sex) or share the same interest and hobbies in life can be friends.

Being friends with women isn't a bad thing either. They make good wingmen and you're preselected by women if you're seen with a hot women.

 

[nismo-4]

Enter the judge.

Yeah, but you and the woman both know the guy is an orbiter. Would you just be friends with Sports Illustrated models? You can try, but you'll want sex eventually.

Being friends with women isn't a bad thing either. They make good wingmen and you're preselected by women if you're seen with a hot women.

Yeah, but these women are gonna wonder if you are banging said hot women. Sometimes these women will try to keep you as a beta orbiter to new women you meet. I'd rather sarge alone. Then again, I know guys who bring their moms and sisters into clubs with them as a front.

Read between the lines.

It simple for the girl: yes, all the time. What girl doesn't want a guy to feed her ego and validate her without giving anything in return?

More complicated for the guy;

If he's in his early 20s; yes, chance he may get sex with the girl
If he's in his late 20s, no girlfriend, he can but its stupid and difficult.
If he's in his late 20s, girlfriend or wife, yes. He has to show his girlfriend or wife that the is desirable, and can leave at any moment.
If he's in his 30s or older, no way in hell. He better be sleeping with any girl he talks to for more than 45 seconds or she'll think he's a loser.

So the girl can always be friends, no issue. Guy much more complicated.

I've got completely platonic female friends,

granted, I wanted to bone most of them(some girls I just thought weren't hot enough to date so I just wanted to be friends) when I started talking to them but I eventually gave up on that for one reason or another and now some are my friends.

female friends aren't as good as guy friends, but legit female friends who aren't using you for anything are pretty cool to have too, like any other friend.

Here's a quote from the movie The Aviator:

"Men can't be friends with women, Howard. They must posses them or leave them be. It's a primitive urge from caveman days. It's all in Darwin. Hunt the flesh. Kill the flesh. Eat the flesh. That's the male sex all over."
