Harry from "When Harry Met Sally" explains it best: "What I'm saying is—and this is not a come-on in any way, shape or form—is that men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way."
The age old question, asked and questioned by truly everyone. I 100 percent agree with his words—sex is always going to get in the way with the friendship whether it's on one person's part or the other. It is really hard for guys and girls to just be friends. Being a college student, our hormones are high as hell and the hookup culture is such a big thing, and everyone is a part of it. We are always searching for that next hookup and look to our friends as potential boyfriends/girlfriend, hookups or friends with benefits.
As an example, I try to become friends with guys, but one of us always wants more and something either happens or nothing happens at all and the friendship never last. Or I have even tried to get with a guy and it does not work out, so we become friends. Think about what's the longest you have been friends with someone of the opposite sex and no feelings got in the way.
While it's possible that you have friends that you are not attracted to at all, but you do not know what they are thinking and perhaps they really could want you and you do not know. A lot of people think it's just the guys who are always the sex-crazed ones wanting the girls, but that is not true. Girls want guys just as much. So I ask you, do you think guys and girls can be friends?
