Honestly, if a guy outright says he wants a platonic friendship, it’s probably bullshit. In other words, don’t trust it, it’s a trap.

Run away from him. Tried friendship and conversations were weirdly sexual. Annoying.

I am bad at keeping friends in general, so our friendship will not last anyway.

Lol a guy offer platonic friendship is a liar.

I'd take it.

But it depends on the person. Online relationships and correspondence really drain me. Online, I actually prefer groups, most of the time.

But I had a platonic male friend - irl - that I've never had a desire to date, and I know a big reason he rejected friendship and became very mean is (among other things) he would never want to fuck me.

Fuck it, maybe I'm not better, but it never fails to really, REALLY hurt me.

Would avoid they will use you in some way

That's my besfriend but i suspect he's gay bc he never came to the part where every moid turns the conversation to something sexual

It depends. 99% of times, the man is absolutely looking for something more - and it's almost never something romantic. If it's not sexual, it could be money if he sees you are a generous person, or it could be a manipulative move to try and trick other people around you that he's a good guy that everybody likes because 'look how lovely and friendly and liable this guy is - he's even friends with all the ugly fat girls at school/work!'. Men are very rarely what they seem on the surface.

Admittedly, I do have a male friend who was routinely raped by his father when he was a kid, and as shitty and awful as that was for him, he truly seems to have the sensibilities of a woman because of it. He's unlike the vast majority of men BECAUSE he suffered from men just as bad as a lot a women have. Not that this is true for most men that were molested or raped as children, not even a little bit, but this man specifically thinks a lot like a woman. Not that I give him the same treatment as one, but he's clearly not as bad as the rest.

Give it a shot I suppose.

I have a male friend and eh, there's flirting, so I suppose it's not strictly platonic. I guess I have never really had a genuine friendship like you're describing with a guy. I normally stop being friends with moids after I realize they want something more, this is the first time I haven't, because I like him (too?).

would you whores have a platonic freindship with chad? you don't want your looksmatches but you feel entitled to top tier men. I hope you get hit by truck and spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.

He'd have to at least be average looking or he'd have to be giving me free things.
