This is the question that gets many people’s brains turning non-stop. Some people are blatantly against it. The reasoning the people have for this is that if they become friends, they will develop feelings for the said person. This is wrong in my opinion, so one could say that I say yes to the question. Personally, I have had best friends that were boys throughout my life and I have not once thought of them in a romantic way. Well, there is one exception, but most of the boys that were my friends I did not like, like that. This answer depends on one’s life choices and one’s life experience. One person cannot speak for the rest of humanity. So the answer varies, but mine will always be yes.
