When I got home, DH had dinner ready to put on the table. So yes, we CAN and WILL be friends and he can send me all of the dirty texts, PMs, pics and videos that he wants...that is until he screws up and ticks me off....LOL.

My husband is a nurse and has a LOT of female friends. They are just friends and he doesn't flirt with them. Most aren't even his type, sexually. In 20 years my husband hasn't cheated on me with any of his female friends. 4951

@N+T:
Michael either although he doesn't work with a lot of women. He has had to file hr complaints on a couple of guys for hitting on him before. I thought that was funny.

I have found that my female friends are more reliable and trustworthy than my male friends. Also helps to have an awesome and trusting DW. 4951

One of my best friends happens to be a woman. I'm sure she wants to do me, most women do (Emoticon), but she's never acted on it and I have no attraction to her whatsoever.
 
She's attractive but comes with so much drama. I don't want to end up on ID network after one of her ex-boyfriends kills me.

Or is it an either/or situation? Just wondering.
 
I realize there are always exceptions, but as a general rule, what is the general consensus? Just a informal poll here...no hidden agenda or point to prove. We are all adults here and all able to discuss this frankly and openly, right?
 
Are men just looking for flirty friends or friends with benefits, side action only and if so, what is wrong with just being friends? Got too any already?
 
This was coffee discussion this morning with a group of friends and I at work, and it got me thinking about my male friends, etc. Harmless flirting is one thing, but sexually oriented flirting, or discussion of "wanna / would you be willing to hook up" or seriously hooking up and stepping out, exchanging pics and/or video, etc. is more of the nature of the question.
 
@donnatella: I haven't posted in a while and this is an interesting topic.There is no clear yes or no. I have a few very close female friends who are strictly just friends we have never flirted or anything of the sort. There are other girls who are my friends who I would like to date. Some I have asked and been rejected "friendzoned". Other times I have just kept it to myself. I was single during all these occurrences if I had a girlfriend. I would not be flirting or anything. There are girls who I was friends with who i thought were into me but only one has ever told me.While we are on this topic what is everyone definition of a friend?

I am friends with opposite sex coworkers. And continue to be friends with past coworkers which is great for future job networking. I don't hang out with them privately but I think it is my personal choice. 4951

@mjcboat:  It means different things to different people.  To me, if I care about someone, care to phone or chat with them (frequency varies) maybe have lunch or hang out on occassion, have common interests with them, etc. and the feeling is somewhat mutual, then I consider them a friend.
 
Close friends, all of the above-except more frequently. 
 
Besties / BFFs...well you get the idea... 4951

Yes. I have several men friends. I think it's healthy to have friends of both genders. 4951

I have a friend that just happens to be a male . We have been friends for over 30 years , before either one of us were married , no sex or flirting was ever involved . We are both married now & his wife is one of my best friends & my hubby & my friend have become great buddies....so yes , it is possible , it just depends on how important the friendship is to both parties . Neither one of us was ever attracted sexually to the other one , just not the right type , but we were & still are friends. 4951
