I have never had a successful friendship with a woman. Every woman I have been friends with only talked to me when they want something. I have never had a female friend that I could confide in and open myself up to. I feel like women don’t really want to be friends with men. We don’t have a lot of the same interests and hobbies so I can kinda see why. Have any of you guys had successful friendships with women you weren’t attracted to? Am I looking at it wrong?
I don't think I've ever had a woman as just a friend. I know women from work and other venues but they're aquaintances. I don't feel that pack kinship with women it seems. Further afield there's not a lot of people I consider a friend, just 2 or 3. My daughters mother is probably an exception but I'm not sure just now.

I was actually going to start a thread like this. Unless you are work buddies, or live in a town of 30, I don't think platonic friendships can truly work between the sexes, particularly if one person is physically/ sexually attracted to the other. Some years ago, I realized like 3-4 rather cute females were contacting me, but really just to party with, eat lunch, talk about their personal problems, ect...
I remember thinking "how did I become the gay friend?" I ended up changing my number and moving forward I have made it quite clear to females I'm really not interested in being friends in its purest platonic sense. There's many conversations that I think me are just made to have only with other men.
I've have had guy friends, as a female, for my entire life.
ARe you really cute? Meaning do you think these men are jumping at the bit to try something sexually with you if the drinks are flying or is there no sexual attraction?

Have you seen the movie When Harry Met Sally? (If not, then you for sure can't be friends with a woman!) But getting back to the movie...if you haven't seen it, watch it.
I'm a guy and I haven't. Even when considering just acquaintances, most of the people who I've been acquaintances with are males. It's not really a conscious thing, just the way it's worked out. I'm not the most social guy so I don't even have a lot of friendships with other guys but I do find it difficult to be friends with women. Probably just different interests and different outlooks on life.
Some of my best long term friendships are with women. No matter what they say it’s complete possible to have a platonic relationship with a memeber of the opposite gender that’s not influenced by testes. Being a man and getting honest feedback from a woman’s POV is extremely valuable.
