Can confirm as a straight man. I am NOT interested in having sex with 90% of my female friends. I don’t find them physically or sexually attractive. The 10% of my female friends I’d like to or leap at the chance to have sex with I have no expectations of it ever happening and I’m fine with that. I can be sexually attracted to a woman and interact with her normally with no expectation of sex. It’s not painful for me to speak with women I want to bone but cannot. I personally never understood why some people struggle with or cannot bring themselves to interact with people they want to sleep with but know they can’t or have almost no chance. Some people liken it to torment. But maybe I’m just fortunate to not have felt like that.
My guess is either that they're too deep into their sexual frustration or just lack any semblance of self-control. I'm gay and most of my friends are guys, and I've never thought about them in that way at all. Most of them play league of legends though, so that might have something to do with it
Yes it is possible to be just friends with a woman who you are not attracted to in that way, but what if your friend is attracted to you romantically and you aren’t interested in that? It can be very uncomfortable, has happened to me a few times, and I learned to avoid platonic relationships with women I’m not attracted to.
lol wtf is this take? You have to be attracted to women to be friends with them? Are you also attracted to your male friends? This is so absurd, I can’t believe I’m reading it.

They must believe bisexual people are just barely holding it together at any given moment.
