Re: Can women and men just be friends?
Lol I have a lot of female friends, and this video made me question some of my friendships. My question would be, where do you draw the line, and how much does history matter?
Some example scenarios:
-I have a girl who was my girlfriend, we broke up mutually years ago. She's married now, I went to her wedding. We still talk maybe once a week, and I'm friends with her husband. He knows about our history and is cool with it. Are we "just friends" now? Or does it count as more because we tried before?
-Two of my co workers I had been friends with for years. Both of them are in different relationships, and one admitted to me directly that when she was single she had a crush on me but she was too shy to try and flirt with me, and the other I heard second hand had a crush. I personally am physically attracted to one of them, and not the other. But I would not seriously date either of them since we're co workers, I know their BFs etc. Are we more than friends?
-One chick I used to work with I am actually close friends with now. She's single, claims she's attracted to pretty boys with tatts etc (aka not me hahaha). I find her attractive, but she has 3 kids, 3 different baby dad's, used to be a stripper, is a party girl, and just has way too much drama floating around her. I wouldn't even begin to try to make that a relationship. Are we "just friends" or more?
Those are the ones on the line to me. I do have female friends who I felt nothing for before and who i'm not physically attracted to and would not be stupid enough to f*** even if it was thrown at me. But maybe they feel something for me? I guess anyone could be hiding that.
By my own definition, you can still be friends if you're attracted to one another. I think the difference between being friend and being more then friends actually acting on those feelings, even if it's just a hidden agenda. If neither side is actively trying to pursue a relationship with each other (even if it's just physical) they're just friends in my book.
