Just Friends?

[Rhapscallion Démone]

Men aren't friends with women because friends have common interests and do friendly shyt... wtf you gonna do with a woman if you aren't pursuing her? Talk about handbags and makeup?

Women don't have interests outside of make up and handbags?

Bro I was just making a point...

Yeah women have other interests, but let's be real... women talk about bytch shyt with their friends 99% of the time... are you interested in discussing silly ass shyt with a woman just because you're her friend?

If a female knows that you like her and are too puss to really get at her then yeah you two will be friends, and you're no different than her gay friend... you just have to discuss nonsense that's not gonna get you anywhere...

Different strokes for different folks I guess...

 

[im_sleep]

It's only possible if there's a VERY respectful distance.

Outside of that...

Nooo

It's definitely possible for men and women to be platonic friends, but it's definitely not advisable when ur in a relationship. A platonic friend of the opposite sex is basically a reminder /representation of the options u have outside of ur relationship. An easily accessible option at that. I think there's less incentive to push through hard times with the person u when u have this other person in the cut (the friend ) Who u r familiar with.

I also think male female relationships form out of attraction. Even if it doesn't progress past friendship, I don't really think dudes just seek out women who r sexually repulsive to them even just to hang out

I have 2 really good female friends that I've had forever now and I agree with this to some degree

One of them I used to "date" and we ended up friends and there's zero tension in our relationship since we've done it all already


the other is strictly platonic even though we started off trying to do more and both said eff it.. after a year or so
although I would still fukk if she was down but honestly knowing her the way I do I know we're better the way we are.

OK, you talking about getting friend zoned. So you don't believe that close friendships between a man and a woman can be intentionally platonic. You belive it is a byproduct of being friend zoned I got u

As a guy with mad female acquaintances, I can honestly say I don't consider any of them really friends. Not like my nikkas.

I seen my boy for the first tike in 5 years this weekend and we picked up right where we left off like I saw him yesterday. That kind of bond transcends space and time.

With these women, they honestly just kinda fill the void of blank time. We talk, have great conversations, kick it when possible, some I even fukk occasionally. But I don't really consider them friends. Even when introducing them I say "This is my homie" or "This is my homegirl".

Any women entering my life must accept this role and must accept her co-homies. Know one, know all. Know all, know none.

HALF of women have a fall-back partner on standby who has always fancied them, in case their current relationship turns sour By Deni Kirkova for MailOnline 12:37 EDT 25 Sep 2014, updated 03:23 EDT 26 Sep 2014.

50 % Of Married Women Have A Man...I Mean "Friend"on the backburner...ya know...just in case their current husband or bf doesn't work out...



Ooops...survey says 85% Of Women In a COMMITTED relationship...have a backup man or "Friend"...if she has male friends outside of you and you 2 are exclusive...she doesn't respect you and is playing the field...

85% ya'll...




Get married brehs...

 

[The ADD]

You think it's rare even in this era of social media?

It allows you to keep in touch but that's not the same as being in close proximity to someone and seeing them often.

Again a lot of it is perspective. I'm a little older so my closest friends got married, had kids, etc. I have love for them no less but I don't see them as much. That's just part of life.

 

[Chill]

very possible. i'm in platonic friendships with women that i've never really thought about fukking and vice versa. we don't talk to each other about our relationships with our partners and we don't talk about sexual topics.

Yes, just people ego get in the way for most people

Question for you as a man -

Do you think a well rounded man finds feminine energy, besides relatives, helpful & complimentary to his life, lifestyle, social circle?

Do you think that men regret pursuing & sleeping with some of the women they have? (This does not include the type of women men typically regret sleeping with - mother of his children, mentally/emotionally unhealthy, incompatible outside of sex, and women where the attraction wasn't mutual)

Are men not versatile in that they have a one track mind i.e.
-I want to sleep her so I will pursue sex.
Or
-I don't want to sleep with her AND she's not worth knowing as a human being.

Do you believe that, as a man, lessons can be learned and ideas can be exchanged from and with a woman?

I find feminine energy a necessity, this is coming from someone who grew up with nothing but brothers and a hard ass father. Feminine energy is breath of fresh air for me lol.

Yes I do think men who are sexually active can have regrets and yes I do think that we pretend to have a one track mind when it benefits us.

Yes I believe a Man can benefit from the insights of Women.
