It is perfectly natural to desire the attention and affection of your female friends, guys just don't show it much. But I fear with the social conditioning these days, its become more manly to be less manly (?!?) and shun our basic instinctual drives, which is actually rather insulting. I've personally never understood people who said they could never have sex with their friends.
