Can a girl and a boy be friends...??

Yes they can really be friends. I always been friends with boys and I never had problems with that or them. Not every woman is attracted by every man or vica versa.

They can be friends but this friendship can be very risky specially if both are young and beautiful...too much attachment and attraction can easily change friendship into love or more likely to lust as children are young and still immatures and unaware of the results....this can happen because this is natural phenomena in human nature.Girls are usually innocent and trust boys very easily, while boys want to have fun , and don't believe in commitments.If boys and girls really want to be just friends, then they should know how to keep control on themselves and also they should know their limits.Specially in Asian countries because western youth knows very well how to take care of themselves.

They can of course i have friends boys and we are just friends nothing else and haven`t been else. I have friends girls which also have friends boys and they are just friends i don`t know why people think that boys and girls can`t be only friends.

Any relation in the universe is mainly depends upon "understanding". And situations are also caused to this. The type of society you are living is a factor. If you are living in a village(like me), then it is a big problem to make friendship with girls(for boys). If it is in urban area that is common one.

If they think they are friends then they ill be friends if they want to be lovers they will be.. That's it no third person can decide the relationship between them....

yes, boy & girl can be very good friends. Those who understand the limit in friendship they turn out to be very good friends life long. Although many says that boy and girl can never be friends and love factor comes in between, which i think is very natural, but this does not end the friendship.

Personally what is wrong with guys and gals being friends? The issue is if the 2 are married, is there allowance to be just friends without it leading to something else. I know I personally have friends who are male, and some of them have been friends of mine for many yrs. now. There is often times there are things we share in common and talk about that just helps make the days brighter for sure.

i think it is possible. i have many guy friends and none of those have turned romantic - at least well none has proposed love to me except a few who we never stayed friends anyway. :D

Yes, I do think that men and women can be friends. I have male friends that are just that. My husband has female friends that are just that. It's not impossible for men and women to be just friends.

This question carries cultural perspectives. For many parts of North America, Europe, Australia, people would not question too much. You can see that on TV and movies produced in North American or Hollywood. As you would probably aware, boys and girls play together, hang out socially, study together, party, and do other things. When they become adults, men and women can still hang out socially even when they are married and have kids. In some other culture, there is tendency that boys stay with boys while girls stay with girls. You might be gossiped or talked about if a boy hangs out with a girl. This could lead to discussion of purity, gender expectation, etc. Back to the question: While certain culture does not seem to encourage friendship between a boy and a girl, there is nothing wrong with friendship between both genders.

But of course.. I have a few guy friends.. They can be friends if they have the same interests, but both genders just seem to hang out with the same gender. But they can still be fiends, like bro and sis.

Of course yes, I know some who are friends yet there is not strings attached.

A girl and a boy could always be friends. There's a big gap between being friends and being a couple. In fact, I am a girl and I have more guy friends than girl friends. =)

Well, this question is some what funny! There is no problem in being each others friend. Actually, some girls feel shy or get afraid to make a guy as her friend. They say " Never trust any guy now a days". They first watch the nature of that guy for some days and then step forward to make him as a friend. A girl can make a stranger as her friend, unless the guy is from her school or college or office. Making a girl happy and feel her good as her best friend is a very tough job!

I will speak in my own experience on this question. Can a girl and a boy be friends? Yes of course why not? Why do they need to pretend? I can pretend to be friend to anyone. I do have boy friends and we really are friends, just friends. I treat them just as I treat my girl friends and I found no problem with having boys as friends.

Girls and boys can definitely be friends. There is nothing wrong with that. After all, relationships are just friendships gone deeper. This is why couples should always remain to be friends, even after they are married. Men and women can retain that clean friendship, as long as they have respect for each other, and understanding the limits of each other.

I have a few friends that are men and there is no interest whatsoever. I am satisfied with this. I've always grown up having male friends.

Absolutely! Men and women can be friends. Having said that, it’s usually because they’re at different stages in their lives or there are practicalities they’ve worked closely together, met each other through family members, or known each other since childhood. Whatever the circumstances, the familiarity and certain common denominators make them feel like brother and sister. They can be themselves with each other. They don’t feel any pressure to put on airs, impress, or to look their best all the time.

great question i like to have women friends i invite them when i go out and i have great time especialy when they hit by guys who came whit pick-up lines trying to get them .one of my girl friends introduce me to a girl who like me for a while ...yes is great to have women friends wherever you go girls look at you differently...and guys too...i like when i'm friend whit a girl i'm just friend i say her to the start i don't want she will think i make myself friend whit her just to try to get her in any way...

There won't be pure friendship between a boy and a girl, do you want to ask this? Tell you the truth, i do not trust it until my best friend (of coures a boy) say he loves me, the pure friendship transfer unclearless. At last, we become stranger as i have not become his girlfriend. So i don't think there are pure friendship between a boy and a girl.
