No

Friendship is based on mutual trust and bonding with no sexual attraction or likeness to that level so yeah men and women can be friends. No big deal


But I have seen many times that it does go beyond this as either one or both develop feelings but I guess thats situational

[K!NG HARA$H!MA]

Yes with clear boundaries and understanding.


once the boundaries get broken that's where the problem get started

If they have brother and sister relationship then yes, but if there's no brother and sister vibe then it will eventually turn sexual.

Lol

I have seen even females falling for male friends so it swing both ways 😉

 

[Rej]

fundamentally no, but in certain cases yes

 

[Sir Yasheen]

Yes

 

[Roo]

I had a few girl friends ask me out, but I definitely think more men fall for the girl friends that vice verse men aren’t exactly used to a lot of affection

In my case that scenario only revolves around older women at my work

 

[Bob74h]

No
guys only look after so long as dating is concerned cause outside of sex, men dont care about women


They wont go popping a beer with the boys
they wont go playing games or doing literally anything boys like and that's why female friends dont exist just no common interest between the sexes

girls on average would prefer going shopping or doing their nails which is stuff men just dont enjoy doing so they end up only hanging around with men as only fellow men are into what they are into


and it's why everyone who likes anime and debates about if my character can kill yours ie versus debates are men, it's just there's a shared experience coupled with societal expectations which leads men to generally being in spaces where only other men exist
