Do you think it's possible for a man and a woman to be just good friends?

Yes but there may be a possibility that the man will automatically have mentally undressed you and the rest and i am sure the woman will do the same, this is done in secret. It can work but it may move on to more, nature is like that.

I tend to get along better with guys anyway :) So yes, I do think men and women can be just good friends.

My best friend is a girl... but I also have feelings for her.
I think in some cases men and women can be just good friends, but in most cases there are hidden feelings on either one or both sides.
Just my opinion, could be wrong.

I believe so, it really depends on personality.
As a woman, some of my closest friends are men, and there has never been any tension. Any relationship is decided by the two people in it as a whole, not just their gender.

In the movie "When Harry Met Sally", Harry said "Men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way." There is some truth to that statement.

lol, yes of course, i think for me (im straight btw) i grew up with 2 sisters so have always goten on with girls as well as guys and find i can be good friends with a girl without being sexualy involved. i find some men have told me that they find it hard being just friends with a girl because they are always searching for sexual undertones, and girls offen stay clear off realy good straight guy friends to avoid giving the wrong idea. this isnt all girls and guys but this subject has been brought up a lot. but pearsonaly i get on well with both sexes just as well
