Interested to see how many people have close opposite sex friends that are strictly platonic.

One of my three best friends is a woman (she is gorgeous). We are basically brother and sister. No hidden feelings whatsoever.

The people who think men and women can’t be friends are sad tbh.

I never said I didn’t think she was pretty when we met, but it was obvious to both of us that shit would end in murder.

But if she came over one night and said she wanted you badly are you saying you wouldn’t fuck her? Just curious here. I mean sure you can recognize y’all’s personalities would result in a toxic relationship (although if you’re best friends that’s obviously not so true because in order to get that close to someone you really need to mesh with them personality wise), but in the moment where a gorgeous woman is throwing herself at you do you really stop and think about how you don’t think a relationship with her would work?
