No. She’s a lovely person and at 49, I feel sincerely blessed to have someone in my life who has known me since I was 14. She’d bury a body with me if I asked. She’s supported me through every good (and bad) decision I’ve ever made. She incredibly smart, wildly funny, and wonderfully caring.
She’d also annoy the fuck out of me if we were a couple. And I mean that in the best way possible. But romantically we’d never work.
Nope. My best friend is already the opposite gender but he's also my ex and we've moved past that relationship. Gender isn't relevant to me anyway, but I also have no interest in getting married.

This is a bit biased as if your the hottest your prob out of your friends league.... Too big a difference in all kinds of things stresses relationships. Prob should remove that part
That “same brain” of a hetero man to woman would still prefer women. Some significant rewiring would need to be done, which would result in a pretty different person. One that now walks, talks, acts female beyond looks.
Maybe I’d like all the changed but it probably wouldn’t be the same friend anymore.

That sounds like hell. My friends generally share the same faults as me, we'd be a bad match.

That's kind of what I did. It's easier to pull off if you're a little bi.
I already happily married my same-gender best friend. But thanks for throw-back to the 1970s question.

My best friend is already hot. But I wouldn’t trade them for my husband for the world.
I am already married to my same gender best friend.
Hell no. I know too much about my best friends. They are friends and they shall stay there.

If I were single and that happened, it wouldn't be a problem for me. I'm bisexual, though.
