One of the best friends I've ever had was a straight male, and a former homophobe at that.
Of course it's possible for a gay guy and a straight guy to be best friends without it going any further. If anything, most of the support I've gotten after coming out has been from straight people, the gay people I met are all kind of catty and passive-agressive. Also, it's hard to have gay friends who are "just friends" because from my experience, a lot of the time one will have feelings for the other and the other isn't interested.
So yeah, I actually love having straight guy friends, there's much less tension.
