I prefer (or used to prefer) to think of male friends as 'friends with benefits'. These days all our friends are married etc, so it's not the same, but back in the day, I guess sometimes there was sexual tension and sometimes there wasn't. If I didn't like or enjoy what I was feeling, I'd just change the dynamics. Jealousy didn't really fit into it though. I don't recall ever having to deal with that side of things.
