How To Be "Just Friends"
Why is it so hard to remain "just friends" with the opposite sex? Studies show the relationship ends more times than not once sex is introduced. Keep the friendship. Keep it platonic.
Step 1: Friends With Benefits(可以從對方那里得到同性朋友間得不到的幫助)
If you remember the real advantages of opposite-sex friendship, you probably won't throw them away for a one-nighter. Guys, you can express your feelings with her in a way you can't with the boys. Girls, you get a protective, big-brother type pal. And you both get the inside scoop on how the other sex operates.
Step 2: Dirty Tricks（保持距離）
If you do find yourself eyeing up your buddy, put up some barriers. Ladies, next time you go out with your guy friend, slack off in the hygiene department. Try wearing grandma underwear. Skip the shower. Don't shave those legs. It'll help you keep your pants on.
Step 3: Wear Yourself Out（抑制自己）
Gentlemen, expending sexual energy before you meet up with your female friend will usually suppress any inappropriate feelings that may pop up. And gals, don't be ashamed. This will work for you, too.
Step 4: Converse With Caution（注意交談內容）
Don't let the chatter drift toward sexual innuendo. No one wants to hear another "that's what SHE said" joke. Instead...talk about your ex. Or irritable bowel syndrome. Or the reptilian humanoid conspiracy theory. Don't talk about how tight your bra feels today. If you need a back rub, keep it to yourself. Oh, and take it easy on the booze. Friends don't let friends drink...and dive into bed.
Finally, if you find yourself waking up with your best bud, take some space, then talk. Remember, you're friends for a reason and if you really do care for each other, it won't be hard to figure out if it's love, lust, or just the liquor.
