Anyone have a best friend of the opposite sex and it's truly platonic? Really. Just best friends who can talk and share anything. Nothing past a hug. I'm thinking more of a friendship that has some time behind it. Not some one you met a couple weeks ago. Whataya think?
Yes, my best friend is a woman. Have known each other for about 5 or 6 years, we are actually roommates now. Neither of us are interested at all in the other.
I would like to remain "just friends" with a few, but...it doesn`t happen unfortunetly.
They always want more...
That's OK.
In my case there are other issues that would preclude crossing the line from **ever** being more than just about the sex ... the rest is about consciously choosing to not go there and be OK with that.
When we were younger (we're both early 50's now) we would wingman together
Yep...we, too, met as college students, but there was nothing ever between us. He did have a chance to date me, but wasn't interested, and since guys not being attracted to me has the natural consequence of them not being attractive TO me, from that point on, we've been great friends and nothing more. It's been 16 years and counting. I think there were some points in our twenties where he may have become interested, but by then, the ship had sailed. So it's never been anything but platonic.
None what so-ever. I don't believe in opposite-sex friendships. It's dangerous for heterosexual couples.
