| Oh, you just want to be friends? Bull@#$&! Posted: 11/17/2005 7:59:27 AM | | I don't think that denver30 is trying to say that men are shallow it's just that men and women think differently. We are talking about "friends" near equal in age. For most women friendships and romantic relationships are two separate things. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME. Once can lead to the other but it's extremely rare. Most men would sleep with someone who was their "friend" if it happened that way most women would not sleep with someone they consider to be just a "friend". Nothing right or wrong about it just the way the differences between the sexes work. | |

| Oh, you just want to be friends? Bull@#$&! Posted: 11/18/2005 8:16:33 PM | | Jesie, agree with you completely. I have said over and over that women need to realize, and to be fair, so do guys, that friendships with the opposite sex work differently depending on your sex. I have no rock solid assurances that I will not develope feelings for my friends. Hopefully, women I am friends with will realize that and leave the possibility open. Thats why I try to be honest up front about it, so that someone like yourself is not left wondering why I, as a friend, became emotionally attatched to you and you dont close yourself off to the idea. By the way, if you are like the girl from Grand Rapids who fried me for joking about dating her, dont burn me. It is very unlikely that you and I will ever meet in person. I am only making an example. | |

| Oh, you just want to be friends? Bull@#$&! Posted: 11/18/2005 10:24:05 PM | | Hey, I'm all for the being friends, if the relationship doesn't work out, it is after all, how you two started out right, just friends. However.. here is the God's honest truth, most of the time, it's just a cop out. Just over a week ago, "she" broke up with me, and not only did I get the "you are my BEST friend and that is what I want you to be" speech, but I also got the "it's not you, it me, I just need time and don't want a relationship with anyone" line too. Two days later, she is seeing a new guy, and it have just been over a week, and not so much as a phone call from her | |

| Oh, you just want to be friends? Bull@#$&! Posted: 11/19/2005 7:32:36 AM | Have you ever had any women who were interested in you but you were not interested in them? I bet you have, so you can understand how the process works. You're probably just going after the wrong women, the ones who are not right for you. It's not anyone's fault, although I've had plenty of experiences like yours and it's painful regardless.
But I do agree that it's frustrating and demoralizing to have reality hit you sqaure in the face. But it's better to have a soft brush-off than a knuckle sandwich. | |
