Just wondering that can a gal and a guy be a good fren? My fren alwiz tell me there is no such thing as good fren between gals and guys. Sure the guy want something from you or in either way. Is it true?

Emm, depends on individual. Some guy there like to get much of female frens then male frens. Still, they are just frens.

In my opinion, a gal and a guy could possible end up to be just good friends but probably not for ex-couple.

But last time i have one really good fren, alwiz tok to each other, when i got problem he will advise me and so on.. but suddenly he just ignore me for long time and i really dun understand. So one day i just call him up... you know wut her say? Because i have new bf already. Also i consider other ppl oso never consider him.

I only treat him as my good fren wor, and he never even give any hint when he know i break off with my ex..(or may be i dun get the hint

)

So now we r not that close already lor.. hardly even contact..

I have a close friend who's a female, too bad I fall for her....now we're not as close anymore

But anyway i think it's not necessary i will fall for a girl if she's my best friend....coz here, i fall for her because there's things about her that i like........had she have a bf earlier before I fall for her, or she is err....let's just say looks that don't fits my taste

......this would not have happend and we'll still be good friends.....so it's possible, depends...

that means he is not your 'good fren' . He is somehow 'on' you. Just ignore him, he wasn't really being 'true' to you , in terms of friendship.
Get over it .

of course man and women can be good friends, until they end up locked together in a small room, then that's when the hormones start talking (unless one of them has terrible B.O that is, hahah).

well... i am glad that i have 4 best friends... 3 of them are guys... and our relationship is still very good for so many years... this one i can very sure... we sleep together, do many things together, we go out with each other's bf/gf... things are still very smooth... i even place them right after my family and before my bf...
i think if ex lovers can be friends without the past feelings coming back, that would be very good... coz they understand each other most... as for me, NOT YET... hhahahahaa... still dont know how to face my ex like a normal friend yet...

wel, here's my 2 cent
He have feelings for u, and logically it's not possible for him once he knew u had a bf. So he has to let go.
Although friendship is improtant, there are things more important than that. namey our own life. i understand how he feels like one he knew u had a bf, and so he decided to let go, else he'l continue to be hurt, and the only way to do so is forget about u. how to do that u knows it too.....that's one sacrifice we sometimes have to make when we fall for a girl. either both will get closer or further apart.

ångelOther party refers to bf/husband/gf/wife lar. Aiyoh. Simply put, if you are too close to your friend of the opposite sex, your significant other may feel jealous (depends on person). Dun lar simply drag me into it.

Apr 15 2005, 01:37 AM
definately yes.
girls are more emotional and sensitive, whereas guys are more logical. (not all, but maybe most...)
when i need to talk to somebody, it's easier to solve the problem when i can get the girls' side point of view and their perspective.
when same sex talk about a problem, it usually ended up the gang all b1tched about the same thing... and nothing get solved.

So now how good oso i will keep a gap lor...

Hmm I think it's possible but somehow it's just kind of difficult to maintain that friendship. Like what DiT said earlier... we might think about friendship with them only, but for the other party, they might think differently from us. For some point, from close friends, 1 party or the other might develop some extra feeling towards the other. But, I have a few close guy friends. However, I have a few close guy friends before which ended... they have some special feelings. :S

guys are like that.
especially young guys... they will start to "imagine" things if you're close to them.
draw your line... before you're too close to them.
but still that doesn't make guy/girl to become best friend impossible.

i have a best friend (girl) who i only talked less than 5 times for the last 5 yrs. and still we are good friends.

if either of party dun always think about "man and woman are impossible to be good fren" and they know how to draw the line, i believe it is possible. Around my side got many good male frens, even...... hehehehe.
However, i still think my best fren would be a gal in the end because still gal understand what gal needs.

and... well... feelings for both of them are mutually best friends....
so... it does prove... that guys and gals can be friends...
well...think of the consequences if u jeapardize this relationship...u can't depend the same sex to talk to u about certain stuffs... u can't simply read the megazines to know more... and... u can't waste the friendship which u have build for so long....
my two cents....

False!!!!! Salah salah salah!!
I have plentiful of good guy friends. I dont see them wanting me for something. We have good time together all the time. It never fails and I do not know why. I have so many guy friends which I am close with that sometimes I feel damn pampered yet frustrated. They treated me like a little girl and like a guy too!!. They offer me sweets/dinner/coffeebean/movies and they can wack me damn hard on the back during games and talk porno in front of me.
So whats wrong having good guy friends. At least I can click with them, whats wrong???

I had a girl best friend once, gave her a ride to the college everyday for 3 semester, I didnt feel anything for her, lots of ppl said she looks like kelly chen and wants to "kao" her, but to me she's just normal. By "ride", I mean on a bike with two wheels, and still nothing happened, now that's the best proof that we are best friends.
we help each other a lot, on assignments, project, lecture, etc.
she even talk about her problem with her boyfriend with me sometimes (nothing serious, just occasional couple squabbles)

The only reason it's rare is due to too many hornay men!!!.
although there are cases where the girls crossed the line first, but most of the time, it's becoz of the hornay men that cant keep a friendship and must turn it into a deeper love affair.

but... i think that even how close both guy and gal together, sure there's a little bit spark between them... example: if there's one girl suddenly appear to that guy and that guy just "layan" her much than his best friend, the girl sure will have a bit jealous... either both way also might happen!. i saw that incident happen infront of me! so... u all get what i mean rite, guys and girls...

Apr 28 2005, 01:00 PM
can happen as well as cannot happen. If so happen the fren ur close with and you developed feel for her, then its natural cause something about her/him attracts you to developed that kind of feeling.
That feeling might not developed also and the relationship will always remain as best friend.
To develop feelings does not entirely depend on being best fren or not. The feeling just happens and its not up to us to control. The chances are higher if your best fren is of the opposite sex.
