When I was younger I believed that male/female friendships can exist just like any other friendship but then a lot of men (that I dated or was in talking stage with) told me they are not comfortable with guy friends because guy only befriend women they are somewhat attracted to. And aside from that a lot of the guy friends I had ended up hitting on me in a way or another or I ended up crushing on them but it wasn’t mutual. So I was curious how some guys from the internet that have absolutely no reason to lie stand on this. Do you befriend women based on their attractiveness? Do you only befriend women you would sleep with? Do you believe such a friendship could ever work long term? EDIT : For some context, as I’ve said, I was a firm believer that friendship doesn’t know gender, until most men I was friends with turned out to have wanted to sleep with me at some point, or said that to other men, or I was the one to get a crush, and when it wasn’t mutual I obviously got hurt and dipped. So now I am at a crossroads with the concept and I prefer to just stick to same gender friendships. submitted by /u/casabonita49
