If by "relationship" you mean "sex and kissing and other" then no. If you mean platonically, sure. I mean I would probably be great friends with that person, but I don't think I could form a sexual relationship with a dude.
Poll: Could you overlook gender?

One of Humanity's greatest problems is imposing limits on love. True love, however, is limitless. If you're really open to true love's possibilities then you can accept whatever spirit it comes in as true love is about spirit, not form. Of course, not everyone has the capacity for seeing and accepting true love. That is, however, only because of the relatively short time we, as humans, have been in existence. We are drawn to what is most familiar and spurn what is not known. We have spent the majority of time knowing only the differences in physical form, such as the sexes, and are still driven by propagation.
Only when our existence is no longer threatened, when we move beyond the barriers of this world and into space where failure is no longer an option, it is no longer even an issue. Then will we be wholly prepared to embrace the true love that resides not in the limited scope of the body; but the boundlessness of the spirit. Even that great future can find it's roots in the humans of today; In the new discoveries we make regarding our individual selves and the whole of Humanity.

No, simply because im already happy.
If I was desperate and had no friends, maybe I could get alittle bromance going.
But otherwise highly unlikely.

Despite the stereotype that the Internet is full of what Pearls Before Swine dubs "desperasexuals," no, I don't think I could ever date a man. I'd be friends with the guy, maybe look up to him, but that's it.
Gay people probably feel the same way about the opposite gender that I feel about my gender. We might have the world in common, but I could never have a romantic relationship with a guy.
It's a moot point, but I'm already dating a girl I have practically everything in common with. So outside the context of this hypothetical situation, I have even less reason to want to switch teams.
For a loooong time I was single. If I was gay, pretty sure I'd know it now. I don't think any guy, no matter how much we have in common, is ever going to change my opinion on that.

Thanks for that, Peace Ambassador from the Love Planet. Was there some sort of point you were trying to make? I seem to remember a question being asked at the start of this thread which your response has only a very tenuous link to. Did you have any particular reason for posting aside from spreading your particular political dogma?Trilaanus said:
I like imagining Jeff Fischer is reading your post out loud. It makes it way more entertaining.
Go back to reading your dog-eared copy of The Left Hand of Darkness and muttering "that's so true" every couple of sentences.
To be honest this is the same as 'What is your Sexuality?' or 'Are you gay / homosexual?' but I don't care if it's a repeat thread or not. Personally, no I'm not gay and would definitely overlook my 'dream' match of the same sex. That being said I would still befriend them.
Since this poll looks to be aiming at sex, I say no. I am straight and will never be attracted to men.
For me:
Men = Friendships
Women = Friendships and relationships.
Relationship makes me think of dating, marriage, and sex, so I only apply the word to women.

I like that way of thinking.Anah said:
OT: Yeah, you see, that's why bisexuality kicks ass. Questions like this never even enter into the equation. *laughs*
i've met this person before, and he simply became my best friend. Nothing more. I could never, and would never dream of doing anythng physical with that person. Good god, no way.
That is assuming a relationship to consist of nothing more or less than the image of it we usually are fed here in the west.
'If you was gay for a friend, would you go gay for a friend?'
Kinda, maybe I guess.
'If you was having no luck with the ladies and a same-sex friend was interested in you, would you?'
Hell no.

Depends how you look at it. If you're asking me if I had homoerotic feelings would I act on them, then yes I probably would. The issue is I've never felt a twang of attraction for anyone male (Being a hip/leg man kinda rules that out) so in your circumstance of "the women aren't interested and you've found a guy who mentally is a match" I simply wouldn't go for it.
Having a romantic relationship without any physical attraction just seems imcomprehendable to me. :S
