Interesting but a good subject for another episode would be to elaborate on what it is that makes a guy attractive enough to be more than a friend. What is the missing ingredient?
I know it’s hard to describe but all the girls here mentioned knowing someone they really liked but he didn’t have that missing quality.
You should have shows on that subject.
thanks girlwatcher!
we will elaborate soon enough..don’t you worry
glad you are still watching!!
if you are in toronto you should come to our event on friday january 25th..it’s going to be a blast!!
peace

I find it a bit hard to have a girl as a friend. I being a male would just like to have guys for friends.The only reason I may overlook that situation if the girl isn’t that attractive or overweight, than I might want them just for a friend.Unless you are gay then there is no phyisical attraction.
But I suppose if you girls just want a male friend I guess it’s alright to a certain extent. At least one thing is for certain you will get an
honest opinion on yourselves being a woman. All you girls are attractive.I would find it hard just to have you as only friends. It would bother me that i would expect a little more than just friends. That’s all I have to say on this topic.I can say that this girl I have met at work said to me she just wants to be friends and nothing more. I found that to be hard to take.
She is very attractive and really has no one else but me. Norman Bloom………..
Hey Norman
you really don’t think you could be just friends with an attractive woman?? that’s unfortunate…we make great buddies!
so are you a new viewer???

I find it sad that some guys feel that they can’t have women friends. Just as women need men friends for a ‘guy’ point of view, men need women friends to talk about emotional things. Maybe it’s just me, but I find it virtually impossible to talk to guys about emotional issues.
If I were a woman, I wouldn’t want to be in an intimate relationship with a guy who couldn’t relate to a woman as a friend. Why? Because guys like that can’t draw the line, they will always be tempted to stray.
I’d be interested to know how the women feel about that.
I think that is an amazing opinion and i absolutely agree with you! i have benefitted sooo much in my life by having guy friends…they have been quite helpful for me so i appreciate you saying that..i hope there are more guys like you who think this way…and i also agree with the statement that men who refuse to have women as just friends are more at risk to cheat either physically or emotionally (or worse both)
thanks tuscan guy…would love to hear more of your thoughts on any of our other shows!

Hey Norman!
There ARE tons of guys and girls who think that opposite sexes can’t be just friends… and with just cause… there’s always that unrequited love factor…
But that’s from a mindset that when you communicate girls its only for romantic purposes… not to judge you but it sounds like you don’t really approach the uglies, or the fatties, and only talk to the hotties who you wanna bang. Which is fine. Not judging. But when you open yourself up to conversation for the purpose of just being friends, there’s an untapped world of new experiences out there for you…
Again… not judging… but you kinda sound like you might be a sports guy, or one of those guys whose motto is “boys before babes” kinda dude… and I’m takin a guess… that you probably get “play”…
SO with that said, I’m also guessing that maybe you’re co-workin’ cutie, might be stressing the friendship title because:
A. - she might not wanna be another knotch on your belt…
B. - you guys work together and dippin’ in the work honey pot isn’t always sweet…
C. - she likes your company, likes your advice, and just wants to get to know you better before getting “skin deep”.
Good luck!
Thanks for watching!

cagirlwatcher….
the answer is….
Chemistry.
You can LOVE someone to pieces but not be attracted to them…
Not to say that relationships arent important, but I do beleve that one good lifelong friend is much more important than any number of relationships.
Sometimes you can get both in a person when yoir significant other is also a good friend. But personally i’d always tend to lean towards the friend.
For example I recently had to choose between the girlfriend of 3 months and the platonic female friend of 7 years. And i chose my friend.
That’s just my two cents…
right on sam! i think it is great that you chose your friend…i don’t really agree when new gfs/bfs try to dictate who you can and can’t hang out with…trust is a huge factor in relationships, i don’t really think you can have a healthy relationship without total trust…so it sounds to me like you made the right decision
Women make wonderful friends, and any guy that can’t see that is probably a bit immature. Women are much more open than men and they tend to be more intune with how you are feeling. That gives them an advantage in giving you advice as well as knowing the right things to say to make you feel better if your feeling down. Plus what better way to attract more women than to let them see how comfortable women are around you.

see??? us girls are nothing but a pleasure to have around!! we knew you guys would catch on soon..
Sigh…
Being stuck in the friend zone sucks. lol. Katie always hits home.
But its important to have friends of the opposite sex in my opinion. One of my best friends growing up was female, definitely like a sister from a different mother, and I think I learned a lot growing up with her. Helping her through all the teenage years stuff, seeing it from her point of view. In a way, made you ladies less of a foreign creature hahaha.
once again another great post MJ!
Kate does have some really great opinions! i am glad you can relate to her. and i totally agree with you that having friends of the opposite sex is great for seeing it from the other perspective…i think it helps navigate arguments better with your partner as well as makes you see two sides to things, which is a great tool!
