Having a platonic female/male friend

are you sure? anyways, i dunno. but men and women can deffo be friends. life has proven so.

I am pretty sure. I agree men and women can be friends, but as Strangelight said, it must involve some safety aspect (either someone else's man/woman, though that might not be safe enough :D, or you're just not turned on by the person in any way).

I don't believe in innocent soulmates.

I agree cos I have many female mates like. Though I'm not sure how I'd react if any of them demanded a portion :)
Theres them safe situations though, like your mates girlfriend (for me anyway like) or ones where something has happened but you're past that bit now.
Anyway, Glasgow derby tomorrow on telly so its heavy metal bedtime..
yeah, derby time, but i can't watch it here for it won't be broadcasted. But they show Arsenal- Liverpool, so i'm up for this. And afterwards i'll watch Bayern- Hertha BSC Berlin. Heavy footy afternoon ;)
 
i have loads of (platonic, female) mates. and i havent shagged, or had thoughts of such, any (well, 1 or 2 maybe) of them.
in most cases it's about trust and frienship that you can find in relationships that count out sex.
it's great cos i mostly dont see the sexual part of it - it's just genderless for me.

bout 40% of my mates is male, 60% female.

what if the 60% demand a portion at one time or another? :)
 
I see a lot (especially abroad) of lads 'pretending' to be a girls 'platonic friend'. The fact is that hes not really 'friends' with her at all, hes just desperate to empty his spuds right up her miff, and once he does, he'll sit there with his wet stinky nob pulsing and growing shorter thinking 'shit, Ive got to keep the friends bollocks going at least until i get out of the door'.

Girls generally feel its 'cool' to say they've got a platonic male friend, but if they were truly aware of the reality of it all, they wouldnt. After all whats so cool about admitting that youve someone there whos every interaction with you is a carefully planned lie.

But alas, weak lads who arent able to admit they have a penis that they want to shoot muck out of will continue to pretend to be geniune friends with girls, who in turn will continue to tell people in pubs that they have 'lots of platonic male friends'

And the great wheel of bullshit just keeps on a-churnin

well what can i say , i had a really good male friend once, and look what happened, well he,s still me best mate :)

None of my business, but I can't help but wonder about this and the previous post :p .
 
Ohhhhhhh the bunch of Jimmy Machos !!
I DO have many platonic female/male/pet friends. I have many mates who have platonic friends too. I've never had any problems with that. If one asked for a portion maybe I would, maybe not, depends on if I'm drunk. Well maybe not for the pets after all.
ALRITE, CALL ME A GAY NOW :eek:

Yes but the difference being that once I decided I wanted to give Susie a portion I admitted it to her and gave her one rather than beginning a cycle of what I was just talking about. I dont have any guilt complexes associated with sexual honesty, thats why I dont fall into the trap of what I was just talking about - hence my quote ''weak lads who arent able to admit they have a penis '' , I didnt just type this for fun, I typed it because I was talking about a certain group of guys that are happier to lie to their 'platonic' friend than to just get their nob out and admit they fancy a chew off her.

Me and Susie have a 4 year old son. How do you think this happened? By me pretending to be her 'platonic friend'? Or maybe she sat on the toilet seat after I'd had a wank :Spin:
 
Note that on the above webpage it describes the processes in terms of of 'Man and Woman' , it does not, however contain any entries like this one ..

'The Male Platonic Friend (MPF) and Female Platonic Friend (FPF) decide to reproduce. This process can be very enjoyable for both platonic friends. Firstly the MPF removes his penis from his underpants and inserts it into the FPFs vagina (see diagram a)'
 
"Girls generally feel its 'cool' to say they've got a platonic male friend, but if they were truly aware of the reality of it all, they wouldnt. After all whats so cool about admitting that youve someone there whos every interaction with you is a carefully planned lie."

Exactly. There's nothing cool about it. I've had one or two friends who turned out to want to be men and not friends. I'm not saying it's wrong or something, it's just that they do not care about me only because they feel it's nice to care about someone. Everyone works for their interest. But I don't think it's had anything to do with this platonic thing, at least not on my behalf.

Though maybe I wouldn't call it a "lie".
