for me as a guy to be just friends with a girl I have to know she's unavailable. There has to be that fact out there for me to just be that relaxed around her. But if thats there, she may as well be a guy to me

but on the original topic, I guess from a male perspective, you can become just friends to a girl if she's already got somebody or you just aren't what she's into(as far as she knows anyway)

I don't think there is a "time limit". If you get to know the person well but still like them, it could be "something more" or not. Even if you do like the person, they other person could think of you as "just friends". It's all complicated.

<~~ female. Everyone is just a friend to me.. Unless you have a super wicked personality, you're just a friend.. it takes a lot for me to find someone more as a friend. Though, people think differently about that concerning me.. to them everyone I know is more than "just friends" because I have a tendency to molest all of them (be it male or female). 🤣 Especially when it comes to one of my girlfriends.. she's super cute.. she gets molested double time 😛

<~~ male. When I see a pretty girl, I don't go like "Hey, let's just be friends".

But, I consider someone as just friends, when we've gone through a lot and developed a good friendship.. And I don't want to ruin that, by suddenly asking her out.. 😛

hmm.. As a girl, I admit that I judge people on first appearances. I don't have people who are "just friends" after a while.. It's more of.. Regardless of what happens, they'll always be "just friends." As for the guys who aren't immediately "just friends", I'll always still be interested in them. So basically, there is no point of no return for me. Old feelings can always be reharvested.

Btw. There are more in the "just friends" category. But, then again, I'm a flirt, so it's hard to tell......

And yes, I know I flirt a lot. It's just a habit now. It's not like I really mean it all the time...

Quote from moritana

Quote from a_nevels666

Did no-one see 'When Harry met Sally"?

Men and women can't be just friends, the sexual attraction always gets in the way.

Chris Rock once said: 'Men don't have female friends, they only have women they haven't slept with...yet.

i cant really agree with that.. 98% of my friends r men.... they consider me their baby sister, or comrade.... so male-female friendship is sooo possible for me.

All women are possible partners..... If your an as*hole. And of course if your young and male, you are. And no I do not exclude myself from those ranks except now I am old enough to know better. I don't have a single friend from when I was in HS because if they were female I tried to sleep with them and if they were male I did thier wife or girlfriend. The tragedy being that it only lasts a couple of months and the friend you lose could have been forever, and when you get older you'll want more friends and less sex partners.

ahhh this is a topic I enjoy. To me all girls start out as just friends. There are 5 kids in my family 4 of them are my sisters. So needless to say I am not always in a rush to add another female addition to the bunch. Plus I like to get to know a person before I decide hey I like them. Saves lots of drama and heart ache when you know about them rather then "discovering" things about them while your supposedly an item.

I'm female, and I would have to be close to someone before I would seriously consider dating them. I have a few peculiarities and I would want them to be able to handle them.

I think you would be making yourself narrow-minded if you ruled someone as just a friend permanately, so I would like to keep my options open, but I also think you will meet some people that you will care for in a sibling capacity and they will therefore be more than friends, but not... something else, if that makes sense.

I get you.. 😃 You mean that you can have a relationship that transcends friendship, like a sibling-kind of relationship.. And that it hasn't have to be 'love' if you have a relationship that's more than 'just friends'.. No?

Plus, I completely agree with you.. That a person can transform from a friend to something more..

I think true love is possible, I think love on first sight is probably more like lust. So yes, you can be in a relationship with a person and not necessarily love them. You understood what I meant as usual, Dr. Love. Anything you want to add on?

Really, I mean I had some female friends that for years I didn't think about as anything other than that. Then they up and do something to catch my attention and possibilities begin the arise...

I consider just friends the girls who consider me just friend, if they change their mind I will change mine. My cousins are just friends as well, I can't see we changing our minds about that anytime soon.
