Yes.
My current partner happens to be my best friend.
I have one other close male friend and several other degrees of male friends, I make my boundaries clear and i have never slept with any of them. (only one i smudged the boundary line for was current love)
This whole thread smells of unhealthy attitudes towards sex.
but if they are cool enough to want to hang around with them, and you don't love them, then why would you dump them once you find out that they won't have sex with you? i can totally understand being disappointed that they don't want to have sex, but to decide they aren't even worth friendship by itself? it seems very over the top to me. that's why i asked if you fall in love with them, because then it would make sense that you just don't want to get hurt. but as it stands it seems more like you just don't want to be friends with women who won't do you.

I think a male and female can't be friends if one is attracted to the other, and they're both straight, but otherwise yes. Men and women can be friends. My closest female friend is a lesbian, she's attractive but obviously no misguided thoughts about her being attracted to me will ever happen. Then I have other female friends that I just don't find attractive. I mean, they're not ugly or hard to look at but just not for me.
I guess you obviously never consider the negative consequences. Imagine the most attractive real woman you know of. Imagine that you have the chance to have sex with them. Now imagine you knowing that they have herpes, which is transmissible even with a condom. Do you have sex with them? Personally, I wouldn't. They would still be extremely attractive, and I might still fantasize, but I am actually able to think about the consequences of my actions enough to be able to prevent myself from doing it.

That's why I told you to stop insisting everyone feels that way.
No. Just fucking no. Not even close. I don't know any way to put it that doesn't sound braggy, but I've had a fair bit more casual, irrelevant sex than most people. That doesn't mean I'll sleep with female friends if I think it's damaging to a meaningful friendship. There's two people involved; I'm capable of having sex be no big deal, but that's not the case for every female partner. If you consider both ends of a coupling you might come to different conclusions.
So essentially if you had a hot mother or sister you can't fathom why people are not incesting left right and center? I have beautiful friends, that would be more than "Bangable", but thinking of having sex with them is equally impossible to thinking about sex with my sister.
Not sure, to be honest. Feelings have a way of being very difficult to communicate.
No one likes rejection of any kind. Sex is a natural need for everyone and (hopefully) mutually enjoyable for all involved. Not everyone requires feeling love to have sex.
I just see absolutely nothing wrong with how I do things.
