This is not what I mean. You can definitely BE normal around someone. But the idea is that because you’re capable of being attracted to them, the friendship is inherently unstable because something could “click” in your head and make you attracted. The human brain doesn’t understand “fine lines” that we consciously try to draw. I did sorta kinda misspeak, though. Attraction is allowed to exist, but you have to have no reason to act on that attraction. That’s the only way it’s sustainable

Tldr: it’s not the issue of being able to be normal consciously; it’s the inherent instability in how the human brain behaves subconsciously. You definitely CAN be friends with attractive people, but your brain needs to have no reason to take action

I mean plenty of people are friends and neither of them view the other sexually. Has nothing to do with appearance

lol I have the same relationship with a guy. Much more of a sibling relationship than anything.

What you just said described appearance. It’s a pretty unanimous rule that guys can’t be “just friends” with girls unless that’s the case. Watch Matt Rife’s bit on it.

I do not know who Matt Rife is nor do I care. And no nothing I said mentions appearance in any way

Forget sexually, just attractiveness. If you’re not attracted, they’re probably ugly. That’s how it is.

acknowledging someone is attractive ≠ interest
