I believe you're thinking of the term Friends with Benefits.
"sex buddies"

it's in the quote lol
I'm sure there are cases where the two overlap... somehow.
I can agree to some degree. A fuck buddy is still somewhat of a friend, surely, even if it's just a little. I've never had just a fuck buddy, though I had a good friend with benefits. Can't imagine just fucking someone and not being friends with them, but as I said, never experienced it so yeh

Okay, so I know people in real life who says, "No, they can't just be friends." Well, I find it lame when people say a guy and a girl can't just be friends? My question is specifically: Why can't they? At least for those who say so. Aside from the obvious "hormone factor" blah blah. Any other reasons?

Otherwise, of course, they can be just friends. I've had a friend who has a guy friend for years but they never liked each other and or had feelings for. For goodness sakes, I have a guy friend and we're just friends even though some other people think we should go out and it gets annoying because I have no feelings for him at all nor do I even think of the guy that way. It's like, "Can't I talk with a guy who I see as a brother?" Seriously.

EDIT: Wow, I didn't even read the date of this thread. Sheesh, my bad. >_<

Of course they can.

But eventually, no matter how much you may deny it, one of them will develop feelings for the other. Unless one of them is gay, but then again...

I believe they can... depending on certain situations...like I've come to terms of being friends with girls when I was young... but eventually it will lead to sexuality if they were both straight when the parties grow older.

What about homosexuals? There would be no sexual tension in a friendship between a male and a female if either were exclusively homosexual.

On a separate note, heterosexuals are capable of opposite-sex friendships as well. Many of my best friends are female, and I have no romantic or sexual interest in them whatsoever.

The real question is can female and females truly be friends with one another now-a-days. What with the high homosexual rate, I'd say it is harder either way.
I have plenty of gay friends both male and female, (I am female) And I have plenty of guy friends. If they have liked me, probably only one has admitted it. I don't care either way. I'm not into serious relationships.

Why not? I mean, are there any boundaries of what friend is? There are plentiful of people that are different sex but just friends... Frankly speaking, now days people are weird. If a guy and a girl is walking around, they think they are dating or something and causes misunderstanding (well, there are times it is right, but I've seen a lot of cases that are wrong). I mean, this person even thought me and my sister was having relationship! WTF!

I believe that guys and girls can be friends mainly because I have alot of them. (Granted I do think that a few of them like me...) But I do simply because you do not have to have a serious relationship with guys. You can act the same around them if your with your friends and with them, you can rely on them for other guy troubles, (unless they do have a crush on you, then that would be kinda mean), and I think that guys are easier to hang out with too. Drama between girls is shit, but it happens all the time, and guys don't have that kind of drama. It's really nice to have guy friends if something like that is going on.

Guys friends also don't care how you look which is nice, if you do look out of the ordinary though, they'll tell you. I don't care what I do with my guy friends, like during band it's always like our tradition to have BB wars in the percussion section. They're just fun to hang with sometimes.
