Anyone can edit a video to make it a point... You can be friends with the other sex. Best Friends? Uhhh, NO! Not possible.

And who foots the bill for all that going out? Yall go dutch?

Do all you expect to be footing the bill with girls you date after you've gone out 5 or 6 times? Usually after that point in relationships we're splitting the tab.

After a hand full of dates I usually try to work it out where it isn't awkward at dinner. For example, I'll get dinner and she can get the movie or dessert somewhere else. Granted I still take the bigger bill but if a chick isn't willing to help out after awhile then I just think she is along for a free ride. Once I see I got one of "those girls" I kick 'em to the curb. I feel really bad for the poor guys that are paying for everything with a "just friends" kinda girl knowing he is thinking it will turn into more while she is enjoying being wined and dined for free.

It means a lot to me that the girl I'm dating isn't a financial flake and expects the guy to pay for everything. I've seen that a whole bunch of times where a guy is paying for girl's meal in that "we're just friends scenario." I'm sorry if one party is fronting the entire bill that's a date and someone is getting a free ride.

yes it's possible if you're both in relationships. Grant it you tend to relate to the couples as one friend unit, but there are definitely a couple or two that I relate to the woman better than the man. But I was never able to maintain that boundary when I was single, because eventually your stupid hormones get in the way and your brain makes any excuse to try to change the relationship.

Most women I am friends with as a person they rock!!!! On a whole I don't have an issue. If I feel a sexual tension or attraction then I do not go down the friend path, easy as that. I tried lieing a few times but it became apparent to me pretty darn quickly so I know I can not.

rmpackers · 12-13-2011, 01:37 PM

Most of my best friends are guys, I find them more trust worthy, or maybe I can just read them better then women. Guys don't get mad at you and then stay mad for the rest of their lives because you forgot to say "hi" to them at a party or something. Our Camaro club is me and a bunch of guys, and I'm vp of my classic car club that is 80% men. I have never thought of any of them as anything more than friends. So yeah, it is possible to be just friends. (All Camaro5 chicks rock by the way!!)

I LOVE THAT VIDEO!

I say yes, but only as long as there is no attraction to them. Otherwise being just friends would be too hard. Which is why I have no female friends. Why do women have to be so beautiful?
