@Arthur I'm not saying every male-female friendship is fake or that every man secretly wants his female friend A friendship can be completely genuine from both sides but it won't remain that way for long like what I'm saying is that you can't use the current circumstances to guarantee what will happen under completely different circumstances it's not even always about that as male or female could've had feelings for you the day you met them but couldn't proceed cause of some hinderRance well I'll still give you a example with logic

Alright let's suppose:

a girl has a boyfriend and a male friend while she's in that relationship the friend may have perfectly normal boundaries and genuinely see her as nothing more than a friend But imagine week,months or far shot years later she becomes emotionally vulnerable after a breakup or some other terrible s*t and now she's alone, she's seeking comfort, and that same friend is the person she's relying on At that point the circumstances have changed completely now he got a choice he can either have morals and control himself, respect her vulnerability and remain a friend on the other side he can take advantage of the situation and pounce but the fact that he could choose the first option doesn't mean the second possibility doesn't exist and same can happen in reverse tbh I'm not saying every friend is secretly waiting for an opportunity that would be crazy but the possibility of lust, temptation and it's chance is on the higher end and it isn't gonna disappear just because the relationship has been labelled friendship maybe I'm just tryna give you logic but ik the point that the manhwa author mostly push for romance and not a pure friendship cause it's just human nature and I understand you not liking that way as you're a BL reader you might not even understand my point so I'll dumb it down for you it's basically a flimsy concept hanging on the thread that male and female can just be friends yeahhhh........
