Men - a question

[Hot Lips]

Do you only associate with women as long as you feel you have an "shot" at dating/***/whatever with them.... or do you guys actually have platonic gal pals that you enjoying just talking/hanging with?

[PCarola]

My best friend of 6 years is a girl. At first I did want to do her, but then our relationship evolved into something special. I try to keep *** and friendship on two seperate levels. There are certain things I would do for a friend that I wouldn't do for a ****** partner...IMO

[Herrmannek]

We have platonic gal pals... But you never know.. Such friends are like gasoline tankers..one spark and.... :)

[Fintin]

yep...as of now...all my female friendsips are just friends

[Tane Angle]

Well, unlike a lot of people here ;) , I talk to farmgirl because she's nice to talk to, not just because I want some. p-)

Hot Lips, you ever watch "When Harry Met Sally?" p-)

[MolliG]

Same as Fintin. :)

Edit

[Ratamacue]

Yeah, I have female friends that I just chill with. 'Course there are some I'd like to (ahem), but there's no need to ruin something good with that. A couple of them are my friend's girls anyway.

[Maverick77]

Mostly for the 1st reason very few for the 2nd

[Lysander]

I have a few friends who are girls. I don't think of them in that way (date/sleep with them). I must admit that in the begining the thought did cross my mind, but now...it would seem awkward. Like Ratamacue said "there's no need to ruin something good with that".

Really??? Damn... and I had my hopes up! ;)

I've had this discussion men before (including my buddy, Tane). I do believe that men and women can be friends. I have several good friends who happen to be men.

[b.scheller]

yup, most of the girls i know are just friends. never been interested in them and never will...

[Herrmannek]

I think current plastic surgery can solve their problem...

[Fintin]

Edit


wait....this brings up the question...are you male or female?...... i know the answer im just being an ass

Acutally no. I've never watched it. I've seen the diner scene where she fakes. heehee

My sister has lots of guy friends and has dinner parties with mostly groups of guys and it seems so alien to me because in my experience it is a rare guy that will hang out with a gal unless there is some level of ****** tension (and hope that we might act on it) present.

I have lots of platonic friends that I just enjoy talking with; I mean look at this forum; no chance of ***.



so my number is 555-6969; are we going to do it or am I wasting my time?

I agree. Men and women can just hang out; especially if doing activities during which your ****s may pop out.

[Midtown]

Like all my girl friends are really cute usually, I dont try to hook up with them, but when drinking gets involved god only knows. But!!! I do have one friend thats a girl that is super cute, and I treat her like a sister, all my guy friends cant figure out why i dont try to get on her, and I really dont have an awnser.

Word.
I hang out with a lot of women on a strictly 'friends' basis. We strictly limit our activities to games of Twister (chocolate pudding version) and Sumo wrestling...

What?

[Fargin]

I have platonic female friends, but only because they wont put out

Ah - the Internet is a tad different though. In many cases people lack the time/resources to travel to meet in person. Though this does happen. :D I also find that on the Internet some people get very emotionally invovled unusually quickly because they don't have to deal with a ton of real life stuff that comes with being invovled in person. Plus a girl can tell you she's wearing sexy lingerie even if she's sitting there with a mud mask on, curlers in her hair, and wearing a granny nightie. (Of course I would never do this. ;) ) The Internet is just not the same and you have to know how to deal with what is real and what is just wishful thinking. It's easy to be especially nice or sensitive or pretend you are a certain type of person if you never have to follow through on what you say online.

I have your number - I'll call you sometime *snicker*

I have many female friends, most of whom I would hook up with if the opportunity presented itself. That chance is not why I hang out or do stuff with them, but that feeling is almost always there. I mean, hell, we're all ****** beings, and I love women.

I would do anything for any of my friends, male or female, and so I treat them all equally and respectfully, unless a woman is giving off the vibe (of course nearly only when the devil alcohol is involved :oops: ) and wants to hook up. At that point, I turn into Rico Suave rofl rofl

[DrunkenMaster]

i think i have had *** with all of the I know (kiddin)....but i do look at there t&a

[Hot Lips]

....but i do look at there t&a

Well that's a given. p-)

[Jack Mehoff]

Plastic girl friend counts?

[Hot Lips]

Plastic girl friend counts?

Sure, why not.

[Herrmannek]

Sure, why not.

Pure platonic feelings :)

Yeah I agree with that, I have lots of female friends who I would hook up with, but that isn't the reason I'm friends with. And also, hooking up with a friend can ruin or change the relationship forever. The only time I've hooked up with a friend that didn't make things weird, was with a girl who I didn't really respect in the first place. So really, use your best judgment, ask yourself if it's worth changing a relationship, it could make things better, it could make things worse.

[NcDeuce]

I have a good number of female friends, some of which I enjoy hanging out with more than some of my guy friends. I have one I go running with, one that I swim with, and a bunch that we just hang out, talk, party, watch a movie, drink, go camping, whatever. It's kind of a brother/sister relationship but not. :D Well, you know what they say...marry your best friend.

[StarvingStudent47]

I've probably got as many platonic female friends as guy friends. Nothing wrong with friends, regardless of what plumbing they've got.

Like electricianss says: Only voltage counts

[Abolith]

heh I would be happy to have any female friends.

[1Cie GevGn]

There are quite a few, some girls that I didn't really know in highschool are all in College, some are a bit homesick so I talk to them on MSN, and before you know it you go to the movies with 4 very nice looking girls and feel the stinging look of every male present woot

[n4292936]

some of my best friends have been adverse to The Republic so they'd take offence to my defining our relationship as platonic, after reading Lysistrata all my female friends demanded I characterise it as more of an aristophonean relationship :lol: . Of the purely non-****** variety I've had several valuable female friends, and in some respects count them as more important than having male friends. Each *** brings something invaluable to the table.

I think the question is...are you the bigger dork for making that joke, or am I the bigger dork for getting it?

But I didn't laugh, so I think that means you're the bigger dork ;)

What are you talking about!!?? That's a great nerd joke! :D kudos to you, oh lit fan ;)

[dhfactory]

I only have girl friends that i'm atracted too. Basically cause that's how i met them. ex g/f's and things too. I don't want anything from them now.
But also on the other hand i'm a guy, I'd have *** with any of them if it came up.

[ShotOver]

Yeah, i got a couple of girls that are mates of mine, tried to do that "We can still be friends" that chicks want after a relationship, but since i still liked the bird and she got another bloke, i thought stuff this and left her alone. But yeah, girls are nice to chat to :)

[Durandal]

I have lots of gal pals...a growing number of them friends' wives since as a group of people we never really break into guy stuff and woman stuff...we just sort of do everything together...including target shooting...

Which is a'right by me.

[Nawlins]

I have several male friends... and since I'm happily married and some of them are too, I'm thinking my answer to the original question is yes.

[molly747]

I've got tons of guy friends that I don't think anything ****** about. They're like my brothers.
