1. Befriend a Man Who Isn’t Your Type
None of my male friends are my physical type and I am not their physical type. It’s not necessarily strategic, but I do know that if I meet a man I’m attracted to, I’m going to want to seduce his fineness. So, if I’m not attracted to you, we can be friends! This guideline is as much for me as it is for him (I will jump your bones).
2. Get a Gay BFF
One of my closest male friends is gay. I didn’t seek him out because of this but it has worked out swimmingly. He and I check out men together. And I am pretty sure he won’t ever jump my bones. Unless he’s fighting me for a hottie. Then all bets are off!
3. Your Best Friend’s Guy
Many of my married friends have great husbands that I also consider my friends. One in particular always asks about me. We even go out together, I being the unfortunate third wheel. I don’t necessarily have a separate relationship with him, but I can go to him when I need male advice. He’s a great guy and his wife loves that her husband and her best friend have a friendship as well.
So, I am proof that Harry was wrong. It isn’t impossible for men and women to be friends. Nothing is impossible. Just make sure that he’s an unattractive gay male who is married to your best friend.
