I find this question to be very bizarre to say the least. I think back when I was in school, junior high, high school, I had plenty of male friends. I didn't Fthem or ever wanted to. Why is it so hard to fathom men and women not remotely attracted to one another. And to take it a step further, there are plenty of men I find v attractive that I'm just not In to. I dont dream or fantasize about them, and I know btw we interact they are not dreaming g about me either.

There is more than male vs female involved in wanting a deeper connection/ personal intimacy. Now I'm not a man however as a woman I NEVER think about sex when I'm around an attractive man. I've asked plenty of men this question and many men say the same about women, especially married men. If a married man deeply loves his wife, he doesn't care about other women sexually or in any way romantic.

Perhaps it is only men who could potentially have this problem bc if you ask a woman if men and women can be just friends you will probably get the are you kidding me look. Not all men , just men who have issues with cheating and devotion to one woman. Thankfully they are not a dime a dozen.

Silly question really, men may see it differently.
