18/f. I've stumbled upon somebody talking about guy and girl friendships. I read it and I disagree, due to personal experience, of course. I have two best guy friends. I hang out with the one more than the other but I can talk to the other about everything. I'm told all the time that I will wind up dating one of them. Some say that about the first guy, some say that about the second guy but everybody and I mean EVERYBODY thinks that I will date at least one of my guy best friends.
Anyway, the saying is "A guy and a girl can be just friends, but at one point, they will fall for each other.. maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe to late or maybe forever."
The gist of this is basically: what do you think about this saying? Can guys and girls be just friends? Why? Why not? (link)

I definitely think that guys and girls can just be friends if neither of you have feelings for one another, which is certainly possible. However, it is different if at least one of you has feelings for the other.
Yet typically, even if girls fall for their best guy friends they may still be able to remain friends, even if it is difficult or frustrating. However, I have noticed that when it is the other way around (the guy has feelings for his girl best friend), eventually the guy's pride gets in the way and he will become frustrated or begin acting different toward the girl.
Granted, not everyone is the same and this pattern may not apply to all girl/guy relationships, but it is just the pattern that I have noticed. But yes, I do think it's possible for guys and girls to be just friends : )

Thank you! Makes so much sense and I have seen that pattern develop with some of my other friends but not with me so that's good! :D
