How to have straight friends?

[Sil]

It's like a few people have said on here, as long as you can excercise any level of restraint it shouldn't be a problem. A lot of my straight friends I think are cute or attractive, I just appreciate from afar, because I know our boundaries. Much the same way straight men have attractive colleagues and friends, it doesn't always have to mean there will be an impending sexual tension.

I think it's nice in a way, to be able to think someone is sexy but just to be comfortable with them without any complications. You're just buddies there to enjoy each others company, and it can be intimate in a different way, just hanging out and being close without all of the emotional crap. I like that.
