can a guy and a girl be friends ?

Captain Mostly · Wed 30/07/2003 07:43:54

as a dirty homo, I can say that it USED to be easyer to have girls for friends. But in fact it's easyer to be friends with guys (and not just homo's, because many of THEM are more than a little female). Men are just easyer to talk to, and DEFINATLY easyer to live with. Girls are all like "clean the bathroom!" and "Who's washing up is this!" and "Don't throw wet tea-bags at the wall!" and "why have you glued a picture of an old man to the boiler?!" and "If you keep selotaping small plastic cats to the roof, we'll lose our deposit!"

They're such a drag.

Now I see why so many of people I know are turning gay. You do have a point, but.. Isn't it a bit.. um.. unclean to trow teabags at the wall?

Captain Mostly · Wed 30/07/2003 13:59:14

I think you're mising the point of tea-bag flinging. This is probably why women don't play Quake.

Pesty · Thu 31/07/2003 01:50:42

Although I've never tried it, teabag flinging sounds like such the fun. If I ever get out of my parents' house, I'm definately trying it out.

And I used to play Quake until I got seasick from it and have since been too scared to play, with the fear that I might puke at any moment and get killed several times over by my dad.

How could you lose a deposit over taping plastic cats to the roof?

Edit: Oh, wait, I forgot to stay on topic. I think it's very possible for girls to be friends with guys. I personally prefer to hang out with guys, much for the same reasons Mostly does. Most of the girls I've encountered are way to froo frooy for me. It's like they can't tell I'm sick of hearing them complain about their boyfriends or some such stupidity.

I hang aroung guys because they discuss topics I like. Most girls just try to dump their problems on me because I'm willing to listen and guys are tight-lipped, and they bottle up their woes and I get to laugh at them when they finaly go psycho amd kill everybody!

Captain Mostly · Thu 31/07/2003 10:11:01

Again, another point missed!

"guys" don't "discuss topics"... They "Talk shit"!!! Less brainwork and more laughs, plus we get promoted before birds do!

sure they can. I get on with ne1 i mean it could be because im bi but i dont know. i prefer girls for problems cause the guys will just laugh at u i mean im holding up a long distance relationship with a girl at the mo and i think it could be love, i think she could be THE one but u know. U can never tell. but of course its possible.

Captain -> Amen.

The amount of time I've spent in the doghouse can be directly related to the amount of time I spent not cleaning crap the minute it was decided that it should be done.

MrColossal · Fri 01/08/2003 00:53:41

i don't think this is any place to discuss bestiality, rodekill...

I don't know dude... any girl that I've been friends with I always developed some kind of feelings for...

I've been dealing with this a little bit, too... my g/f spends a little too much time with this other guy... a little too much for my comfort... and she ain't doing anything to make me feel better or understand... I know everyone needs friends (I can't say that I have any except for my g/f)... but for her, she's only got me and this other guy... and she goes over to his house till 3 am on a school night, and goes to the movies with him, and wants me to let her stay over at his house in case of bad weather (it's near her school)... blah, blah... you suckers don't care.

Captain Mostly · Fri 01/08/2003 16:47:21

I can't relate to THAT at all. Maybe you should grow a beard. Beards solve EVERYTHING.

Harvester · Fri 01/08/2003 22:14:50

Can a guy and a girl be friends? Of course! Like... Bruce Willis and Cybille Shepperd in Moonlighting, or... David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson in X Files (before that crappy movie) and... I'm sure there are some more.

Trapezoid · Sat 02/08/2003 08:04:26

Or like Mr. T and his mom.

12431 · Sat 02/08/2003 17:33:57

I think they can get along pretty well. I've got like 5-6 good male friends and the rest (I don't know how many) are all girls. haven't brought me any embarrasing problems so far. but to tell you the truth, I kinda have the same problem. they all know me, my relatives and house in and out, but I know nothing about them. they're like closet freakin' doors man!

shitar · Mon 04/08/2003 20:39:13

a guy cant be friends with a girl, because therefore you are technically disturbing and eliminatind Darwin's Laws of Natural inter-sexual Survival Theory.

Dmitri · Tue 05/08/2003 06:41:32

oh come now... what's a little chromosome between friends

TerranRich · Fri 08/08/2003 04:21:22

Well, I THOUGHT a guy and a girl could be friends...until I had a threesome with my friend Sarah and her ex-b/f. Well, there goes that theory.

So the answer's no. They can't. And I was dead serious above.

MrColossal · Fri 08/08/2003 04:43:31

mitar then what are homosexuals?

terran, guy and girl can be friends just fine. pesty and i are friends and i don't want to jump her bones. [and i think i speak for her too]

i've had a friend JoAnn for many many many years and i don't want to have sex with her, she's got a boyfriend and i've got a girlfriend and there's no desire. i am friends now with my ex girlfriend and believe me there is no attraction

i'm friends with my mom too.

Oh, I know, I was kidding about the "no they can't" part of my post.

Evil · Fri 08/08/2003 05:14:38

I think the question is do you love her? Sexually or family. That changes the whole thing...
