Can guys be friends with women?

In my opinion i think only beta guys, family ,or gay dudes can

What do you think? Would you trust a girl with a guy friend

I have a few girls that are friends that aren't my type

But are still considered attractive

Other than that it's just a waiting game until one party develops feelings and/or want's to fuk

Evidently you end up sleeping with most of your female friends especially if you're a chad but going into a friendship with this intention is a true testament of FA virgin kisless miscer lol. Women are humans too with jokes and personality ...

I have friends from college that I was attracted to but nothing happened.

I have a few female friends. Pretty sure one of my college friends I made out with though lol.

If you want to be friends with a female you have to have NO romantic feelings for them. I have some attractive female friends but I'm not trying to make anything happen for whatever reason.

If a girl friend zones you after you trying then you should probably not talk to them and move on.

My wife has guy friends, but they're all manlets for the most part, and not guys she would date. Just cool dudes she knew from HS, and the friendships continued. It depends on the girl...If the girl shares a common interest with the guys she's friends with (they play sports, of skateboard, etc) chances are she's seen as one of the guys. If the girl is just a tag-a-long she's probably trying to fuk.

I mean, you're right. And I do value their friendship. But, I also want to bang them.

Because some girls may actually also be interesting people? Why close off 50% of the population to yourself just because you don't want to fuk them

That's because you view talking to women as "putting in work to get laid"

nothing wrong with having female friends.

the guys that say its a problem or that you cant are the same guys that are getting defensive in the wake of all these sexual assault allegations about how they are afraid to "talk to women" because "they might get accused of misconduct"

Women are capable of being platonic friends with a guy. Most men aren’t. If your GF has a male friend, he probably wants to bang her.

A girl that has mostly male friends is usually damaged goods in my experience. Either she’s an attention whore or she’s actually banged most of them.

Women THINK they can. And most relish in the fact that they can, but its just another ploy to keep the attention coming

I have a lot of female friends. Most are in the car community and my gym friends but some are just general friends.

While some of them are pretty hot a lot of them aren't, looks don't factor in.

Having legitimate female friends makes it a lot easier cold approaching new women. Talking to women becomes easy and natural. When I was single I could walk up to any woman and strike up a conversation, it was easy.

A woman in a relationship shouldn't have male friends, even if he's gay doesn't matter. You basically give her a pass to be a ho if you allow that to happen.

Of course, happens all the time. If you're worried about a GF, you can usually tell if a guy friend is trying to get it in. They flirt or check her out.

The guys who you don't need to worry about much treat your girl like a guy friend. I've had plenty of female friends that I never wanted to bang.

If your girl is hot, well you're in for a bad time.

pretty much this but men are good at hiding that they want to fukk if they aren't getting the right signals so women rarely think of that potential. And it's mainly transitory..before the friendship takes over

does it affect the friendship that you could think about having sex at the start but never get to? Probably not.

Hate to admit it but I dated a girl who was above my league for a year, it was honestly quite stressful since I viewed 95% of people as potential threats.. Once her male nurse even hit on her when I left the room.

Then again it was fun to parade her around at nice restaurants etc

Everything comes with a trade off

I've had loads of female friends. Most are very sexy, some are not. I doubt many, if any, were ever attracted to me, but hardly any ever ended up single at the same time I was. I don't think being attracted to them makes any difference in the friendship, unless you're trying to do something about it. You're supposed to still be able to function like a normal civilized human if you're attracted to your boss, customer, coworker, whatever. But since it's the misc...

I don't currently spend any one-on-one time with any women besides my wife and sisters though. Once everyone you know is married, you don't really spend one-on-one time with anyone other than your spouse.
