Yes. But the person I had quoted had brought up the first question you stated, which was not the original question. And I do think that in a friendship between a guy and a girl, there is going to be an attraction from one of them at one point. Sometimes it happens to both of them only at different times.

I'm not a very social person, so my experience doesn't count for much, but when I met the girl whom I am currently most friendly with at my school, we were both dating other people and are still dating those same people. I'm not really attracted to her (in the way you seem to be talking about here, though I think she is "attractive" as a friend, meaning she's a good friend), and I'm pretty sure that she's not attracted to me either.

So... my answer to the question is "no," for what it's worth.

In His love,
Nate

I don't think so. It may happen a lot, but I think that it's probably pretty close to 50-50 (just my opinion). My best two friends are girls and I was attracted to one of them. That was my motivation for getting to know her, but now that I do know her, it's not my attraction that keeps us friends, but our love (friendship-style) for each other. I've never been attracted or had a crush to my other friend, but we're still friends. I highly doubt that she's ever had a crush on me.
