Can a Male & a Female be social friends?

of course! guy friends are the best to have because they aren't afraid to act crazy in public when girls tend to care more about what people think. Guy friends are also great for advice even though i tend to give my guy friends mroe advice than i ask from them. By having guy friends you also become more comfortable with the opposite sex and therefor are more likely to be comfortable in a relationship with a guy you like. \n\n<33

You obviously have an awesomely amazing friendship. Girls seem to be more in tune, with one another...in comparrison to guys being in tune with girls. I can see how this attraction came to be. I'm sure its been quit awkward. If the two of you don't want to loose your friendship, you should try and discuss the issue. Perhaps you could get her a card, or something light...that lets her know, that whatever happens, you will always be there for her. You could talk about your attraction to one another...and find out if it was just curiousity or if it involves more. Regardless, let her know, that you will always be her friend. No matter what. She is probably just as shocked as you. I've always believed that women could relate to women on a more "natural" level...you've both got in you you...you both owe it to yourselves to get to the bottom of this. I wish you the best. I'm sure it will be a Halloween to remember!

Yes...a woman can be a friend with a man and eat a meal with him and still have feelings for someone else.\n\nBut from what you wrote, it sounds like you're at a certain point and she's not there yet. \n\nIf she's not ready to commit, then she's not.\nShe'll get there when its time for her, if its time for her.\nBut its not something that you can make happen. \nEmotions are either there or they are not.

Yes it's possible. I'm friends with a guy since we were in elementary. We hang out, but we don't get all close. we're just friends. and we've been like that for 4-5 years. We talk and stuff, but we're not interested in dating anybody yet. And he has a lot of friends that are girls, but no flirting, just friends. ;)

Nope doesnt make any since to me eithier why he'd want female friends. thats why you are there,  I believe there is the word friend in GIRLFRIEND. what can another female friend offer him that you can't give him. I'd say that if you let him have these female friends his obligations to hurt you are at great risk. And what will he do if and when one of these so called female friends start liking him. I'd say that you talk with him and find out what does he feel he's missing out on by not having female friends when he e's already got you.

yes you can, it depends on the person and what you both want, how much time you spend talking and sharing things together, having a lot of involvement with anyone in any communicable way can spark something!!!!

It really depends on whether you have any feelings for the girl because if not then there's nothing for you to act on and take that relationship to another level.  As soon as one person has some feelings for the other in a friendship then it ceased to be just that.  The bottomline is that the only way women and men can remain friends is if they both find each other somewhat unattractive.

socializing more with opposite sex. maintain the one thing until marriage. mixing and just being with friends of opposite sex will keep it in control. or should in principle.

No.  Girls are capable of having male friends without expecting to fall in love in the future.  At first a girl might want to be friends with a male to explore the possibility of a future relationship, but you can tell right away her intentions.  If she's overly friendly (flirtatious) then she's attracted to you.  But if she starts to mention other guys and starts to treat you like "one of the girls" then you hit the friendship wall.  \n\nGuys, on the other hand, will only have friends that are girls with the hope that "someday" they will be in the right place at the right time (when the girl is vulnerable and falls right into his arms). \n\nThere are exceptions to the rule, but for the most part the above is true.\n\nMaybe you can give us more details so that we can better answer this question.  Is there a certain way a friend of yours is acting?

I have 2 best friends one is a girl and one is a guy. They are both my best friends. I would do anything for either one of them and they would for me too. Best friends are great. My female friend and I have been friends for over 10 years we were even friends in school but I didn't count that. My male friend and I have been friends for three years. Both of my friends are married too.

WOW! She must really Love you if she is making sure that it is okay with you.  That is very promising.  Women can be better friends with males than females. I say you let her and then if it bothers you let her know.  It is obvious she considers what you think! Good Luck!

Some of us can. I have a girlfriend I am completely happy with. The ONLY interest I have in any other women is as a friend. As for those who can't, they're probably wondering why you can't just accept that they don't want to just be friends. If you just want to be friends, and a guy wants to be more than friends, don't bother with him. You have different ideas about where your relationship should be headed. Or if you do choose to spend time with a guy like that, make it very clear that you're only interested in being friends, that you're not comfortable with him trying to be anything more, and if he makes any advances on you, don't tolerate it.\n\nAdded:\nIf you don't hear from them after you've made it clear that you only want to be friends, the only interest they had in you was as more than a friend. They weren't willing to settle for less, and they have as much right to make that decision as you do to decide that you just want to be friends. Simple as that. What you wanted wasn't enough for them, what they wanted was too much for you. Best to go your separate ways.

It is very important for a girl to have a male friend who is just a friend. Girls are rarely good in friendship. They tell your secrets to everyone, they may forgive about friendship etc. That is why guy friends are so treasured. I had such a friend and although I understood 100% that he is interested in me more than a friend I made myself believe that we are just friends. He could even stay for a night in my house, sleep on a couch in my room etc. But then he had a promotion to a different country and proposed to me (and we didn't even kiss). Of course I denied ;(.
