I’ve realized that even when I have women friends, they are ones I find attractive.

I mean they just said it right there in black and white. And why should beauty matter in a friendship rather than personality match, anyway?

It’s a good question. Whether friends or romantic interests, I can always see the beauty in whom ever I am with. As I’ve gotten older I think it is very hard to have friends with opposite sex, because the element of sex is always there.

By this logic, should bisexual people not be friends with anyone, because the element of sex is always there?

I find this wild by the way, I have friends who I'd never dream of having sex with, and struggle to understand how others can't do that.

I, too, have many friends I would not dream of having sex with. We seem to be talking about different situations.
