Believe me, once you're there, you ain't getting off! I know opinions will follow from those who "develop" relationships from friendships. OK, it may be true to some extend, but they still looked at the guys as romantic potential from the getgo!

Guess we'll have to find out, but, not with who your thinking about.
I've always had more male friends than female friends. And I've only had one guy (a married one at that) hit on me. I think though, that it's because these male friends were never just drinking buddies, but we had common hobbies that we enjoyed doing together. I also don't dress up very much and I'm just one of the guys when we're all together. I also treat them like the brothers I never had.

Well, at the risk of sounding harsh, too, they see in you exactly another buddy, not a woman. That's why it works this way.
I've always had a lot of guy friends. I had two older brothers and when we spent summers growing up at a cottage I was the only girl in the area...what fun! And not that I understand men completely I do enjoy their company. I was an EMT/Firefighter as a volunteer for 15 years and the guys treated me very well. I ended up marrying one of them We both were teachers and volunteered on the side.
Right now I am part of a group in the next town called, SOS-Seniors On Scooters It is 25 older men and me I joke that I'm the "young chick" at almost 60. The guys have been great, most in their 70's and even a few still riding in their 80's. It's fun to see the guys still have that adventuresome spirit. Now that they know me better a few have made some "comments" but I just laugh them off...after all men still will be men!!!
lol.....I don't knwo what's up with me and all these wierd old songs today but.......anyway...
A few of my co-workers and I were debating today at lunch wether strait guys and girls can be JUST friends.....
I said that between the ages of 13 and 35ish........it's really really really really rare because of hormones. Either they both develop a crush or one or the other does....very rarley have I heard of a completley platonic relationship with no attractions or crushes ever within this age range.
40's and beyond is probably easier since you don't have crazy hormones bouncing all over the place.
Your opinions???
Most of my education classes are with women in their late 30's/40's. We're friends, but I'm not attracted to them, and they're married with kids, so there's nothing going on there.
Now, if it was full of single 20-25 year olds that were cute....different story. It's harder for guys to be friends with girls they want to sleep with.
It's impossible because eventually the woman will want a relationship. This has happened to me over and over.
