Can Guys And Gals Ever Really ALWAYS Just Be Friends With No Romantic Interest Ever?

[Rachel]

I have to say no. Most of my friends are guys and while I don't know if they've ever thought of me like that, I have thought of the possibility of being more than just friends. Two of my best friends are guys and I've known them both for a really long time and it really freaked me out when I wondered what it would be like to go out with them. I don't think that the length of time you've known someone is the determining factor either. A few days ago I became friends with a guy and then yesterday I found myself thinking that he was really cute, but then he said something about his ex-boyfriend and that kind of killed it right there. Anyways, I hope that makes sense.
