Plenty of people don’t cheat because they don’t have the opportunity, give them that opportunity and a lot will.

Yes, but they have to be so close that occasionally one is actually inside of the other.

no, they have already pictured each other having intercourse together in their head. it's only a matter of time before on of them makes a move. time and opportunity key here. don't give it to your S.O. when the friend is in question.

Yeah I’ve had several friends that were girls throughout high school to now. I ended up hooking up with all but 2.

Yes. But most relationships eventually turn to sex.

what TH03 said.
A “close friend” of the opposite sex is no big deal till they’re banging. And the longer they’re friends the likelier it is they’ll hook up- if they haven’t already.


Trouble is, you open a whole can of worms when you start trying to dictate who your SO can and cannot have relationships with.

Doubtful. Sooner or later the "friends with benefits" issue will arise and the committed relationship status may become history.

No.

Women with guy friends are non-self-actualized attention whores who inflate their frail ego by creating a collection of 'men' that want to frick them.

Men who have close female friends are gay, or trying to frick.

I've had one close female friend in my lifetime and eventually we ended up sleeping together. I don't think it usually works long term, particularly if there's any physical attraction.
