Can a single woman and man ever really be good friends???

Or does sex always get in the way???

Is one, or prehaps both of them secretly wishing or hoping for something more to happen???

Is this an age old question???

A kick in the crotch will be administered to those who engage in bickering or serious off topic posting on the thread..........

Let the warning to forth..........

Have you been dumped again old friend lol

I have loads of single woman friends and sex never gets in the way , suppose it shouldnt when you pay for it.


Seriously though i dont think platonic relationships can exist and both parties would just be kidding themselves

I have always maintained that if one party fanies the other they can never be true friends.

gay men and women make good friends,platonic relationships fairly rare .

I genuinely believe they can.

Sometimes you just connect with someone at some level, a shared interest or whatever, and just know somehow that you will remain friends but not become more.

I am curious as to why you mentioned a single woman - maybe because sub-consiously, or otherwise, you just know that anything else is out of bounds?

Of course, it may grow into something else over time, but equally it may not

Of course they can. Some of my best mates are female and i've never so much as kissed them.
Having said that, i'd be lying if i said thinking about something more had never crossed my mind (especially when drunk) but thank god i've never tried. Why ruin a good thing.

Think that as long as there is no physical attraction between the two then friendship can continue without the sexual element.

Depends. How often are they having sex?

I have a few women friends some single some not and its not really a problem but rarely do we meet socially alone and if it is its just a coffee. The odd time if im feeling really horny I imagine that I might suggest taking it a bit futher but usually I chicken out and call one of the escorts instead. Any other time we meet its with company and cool.

There's a very old girlfriend I meet occaisionally and we still sleep together but this is getting difficult as we both have our own lives.
