I have tons of female friends. Even before I was in relationships.
It's possible, and at times, I sometimes treat my female friends as sisters. Whether it's in real life or MMORPGs (comrade in arms!), it's definitely possible. Especially with the number of people you meet each day.

Yep :) If I know a girl for long enough I just stop seeing her as attractive even if other people may find her attractive.

I think it is called being "Friendzoned" for life.

In most cases, I'd have to agree with the article. I've seen a lot of cases where the male and female friends eventually end up being attracted to one another and then start dating. Hell, I've been in the situation myself a few times. Kind of.
But some people can definitely be just friends under certain circumstances, especially if one of them isn't attracted to the male/females type or one of them happens to be gay.

i certainly do think they can just be friends. i've never been romantically interested in someone who i viewed as my friend. once they're friends, that's it for me
:what:

pretty much.. I've never liked a male friend, ever, even though a lot of the friends I've had during my preteen/teenage years seemed to have liked me at one point or another. it ruined a friendship once :(

I don't think finding my female friends attractive invalidates the friendship... I have a fair number of friends who are women, and while I may find them attractive, we don't need to stop being friends over it!

I think it's possible to just be friends with men, especially since I have a lot of male friends. Like Zid said, if I have no interest in them they usually tend to end up like my brother figure.

It's possible for this to happen. I experienced it. (then again, I am the most dense corpse to exist on this plane.)

Even a socially awkward person like me has female friends.

A man and man. Just friends? Pfft, no way, they gotta be gay.
A woman and woman. Just friends? Pfft, no way, they gotta be lesbians.

Me too. Though I do make people laugh.
