The problem is that guys do respect friendships but if you have a girl who is a great person, who has the same humor as you and is also attractive it’s just hard for a guy to sit there and see a girl who has everything that they want in a partner and just not do anything about it, that doesn’t mean guys have no respect for you as a person or is just trying to hook up

Just because some guys feel that way doesn’t mean all feel that way. Some of the best friendships are between guys and girls

sometimes guys admit their feelings for their own sake, maybe they like you because they can't help it and can't get past those feelings, so they confess to process those feelings and get past them to then continue a normal platonic friendship, assuming the guy is normal about it, those feelings will pass and it should be a great friendship (: Sometimes you just gotta confide in people about how you feel about them, kind of like how people process their feelings on a problem in their life by venting

As a man I've thought about this a lot. In my experience, most often guys and girls cannot sustain platonic relationships, and most guys who say otherwise are either lying to themselves or purposely misleading their female friends. I like to think of it this way: The type of girl who I would be friends with would have strong overlap between the type of girl who I would be willing to date. Any relationship needs some reason or attractive force between the two individuals to sustain it. If 2 people don't want to spend time with each other, a relationship will not work. So, the most common attractive forces between a guy and a girl are physical appearance, emotional support, good character, humor, etc. For a girl, you might find safety and protection as additional reasons to be friends with a man, but the opposite is typically not true. I also strongly believe that the more time you spend 1 on 1 with someone you are attracted to in any way, the more likely feelings are to develop. Maybe you can see where I'm going with this. If I'm friends with a girl who I am not attracted to, I am less inclined to want to spend time together because there is an inherent mismatch between either character, humor, or even looks (as superficial as it sounds pretty privilege is a very real thing). As such, that friendship will probably not go anywhere. On the other hand, if I am friends with a girl who is attractive, shares my humor, and has good character, then of course feelings will develop at some point given that we continue hanging out, because that is also who I would want to date. Anyways not sure if anyone will even read all of this but that is my take, thanks for coming to my TED talk

I think people put too much stock in the meaning of being “platonic”. It’s completely normal to be attracted to people you share a close non-familial bond with and still not act on that attraction. Just like when you’re in a relationship you can find someone else attractive but you’re probably not gonna go cheat on your partner just because of that

If you’re unattractive but have a good personality then it could happen.. but if you’re above average or better looks wise.. it’s lowkey impossible.. even if starts as just friendship it will evolve almost always.

also another comment ... people who like you romantically are doing nice things cuz they like you for you. romantic love doesnt negate that id argue they probably genuinely like your qualitys for you more than most standard platonic connections do ... they just also carry the capacity to want to like you beyond a standard thats only platonic. its just important to consider the plausibility of others feelings before you allow people to orbit you or before you label connection with them. dont assume just because you are or they are in connections thats an immunity to them liking you either I dont get why people do that but its just not wise of an assumption.

Casual friendships, possibly yeah; close ones, no. If your partner has best opp sex friend, get out. It will not end well.

Yes under one condition, both can’t find each other attractive, like AT ALL both need to have different types and preferences.

depends. HOT TAKE: personally, in my relationship we don't have opposite gender friends but acquaintances and it keeps away problems like these where your partner might have to worry/get jealous of male friends or get uncomfortable by them. It just depends on your preference.😊🫶

the key word is "many" but also a lot of guys are can have platonic friendships. so it depends on the guy/girl if he/she can or can't.

They do exist. But it’s on a rare occurrence, a lot of the times men don’t even think of women as friends and only as potential partners or hook ups.

There’s a good chance many of them were interested and nice to you because you’re attractive, and wanted to see if they had a chance. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this, but they definitely should not keep this intention concealed for a long time, and the minute they realized u were taken they should’ve given up or just not talked to you anymore.

I think you become friends because something attracts you to the other in the first place. sometimes feelings grow and you want more. you cannot stop someone from developing a crush on you. Just draw the line and stay friends. if they move on it becomes their choice.
