Can people generally be "just friends" with the opposite sex (or whichever they happen to be interested in)?

Of course!
For the most part?
Not usually, no..
Naw, not really.

Well, for my part I didn't have a lot of male friends until I started university (lots of boys studying history ;)).
Before that I had two, maybe three male friends, and I ended up together with one of them... and it is much easier to be friends with males for me now, because before I had a boyfriend, I often found myself wondering: "Could there be something here?" when I was getting to know a boy.
But yeah, I'm convinced there can be perfectly platonic friendships even though the friend is of a gender you're attracted to :)
