What I can't have a guy friend and not have him be my boyfriend? (Questions)

Sometimes I can't stand people. I have this friend named Jason and he's been my best friend since 6th grade and I hang out with him all the time and we joke around a lot and I guess it comes off as flirting. I really have no feelings for him and he doesn't have any for me. Most of my friends are always pressuring us to date and things like that and it's really aggravating, like it seems wrong to them to hang out with the opposite sex if you have no intention of being in a relationship. It's starting to get really hard to deal with and I don't know what to do about it.

Okay on a lighter note it's Question Time!

1. Do you have any close friends that are guys? (If you're a guy do you have any close friends that are girls?)
2. How was your day?
3. What is a band you have been listening to lately?
4. What is your astrological sign?
5. Have you read "Nightlight: A Parody" the parody of Twilight? (If you haven't you should, it's hilarious!)
6. Who is your best friend in the whole world?
7. Do you have any home work tonight?
