    On the other hand, women are mixed drink drinkers and I like drinking beer, with the guys.

    DJK - not all us women are mixed drink drinkers! I happen to prefer beer (the only mixed drink I have is gin - and well, we won't go there!!). I'm gettin together with some of the guys for beer

    Ok, all kidding aside!

    I too agree with what Looking_glass said. What works for some people will not necessarily work for others. Some people can be friends with the opposite sex, without any sexual attraction and some can't. Bottom line is that everyone and every situation is different.

    TCK

    Problem with that TCK, is that even as you type that, you're wondering if Looking_glass is hot or not.

    Just kidding. Kinda. Not really. Ok, I'm going now.

    hmmm...well, it sure sounded good, didn't it??? LOL ok, I gotta go too!!!

    Well from some of the stuff I've read..............I dont think I will ever trust a fella again............when he says he likes me for my stimulating conversation and trys to talk to me about football..............

    It is now becoming clearer that it may actually be blokes who have a problem with being mates with the ladies..........or at least some of them.............most of the girls dont find it difficult to accept men as friends without the desire to hop into the sack with them (or even imagine it)...............that said I can also see that 'chemistry' is a huge deciding factor in who we like hanging around with...........but I have to say it doesnt always mean its about sex........

    Crumpet..............you little darling you............sure we can be 'just' friends............promise I wont do the tongue down the throat thingy on you.................

    I think your next thread should be Girls and Girls .... Can they be just good friends? Nearly all of my girlfriends at one time or another have also made passes. I must say generally it is most welcome!

    Men can be interested sexually in a female friend while still considering their relationship "just good friends"
    To women, sex is more emotional so the the idea of sex outside a relationship is more foreign.

    It doesn't mean that men want to sleep with every female that they are friends with.

    It's more like they don't want an ongoing relationship with most of the women that they are sexually attracted to, and women don't want to have sex with someone they aren't in a committed relationship with. So most men stay "just good friends" because the sex isn't worth the relationship.

    In my opinion, it's not that they can't be good friends, it's just each gender has a different definition of what crosses the line. If women didn't put so much importance on the meaning of sex, this wouldn't be an issue.

    Just my thoughts.

    With a few exceptions, men are smaller beings than women....generally. Women have the capacity for motherhood and have been endowed with so many hardwired intelligences they leave men far behind. Men have to develop a hunger for beingness which extends beyond the appetites.

    Look at your average man. Just look! Like a stray pet he goes from the food dish to the hump to the nap and then the sports channel. Fat, dumb, happy and about as deep as leftover pizza.

    Men KNOW everything (they think). They will grace you with their opinion like they are dropping gold coins in a beggar's cup.

    Men won't settle for any situation but being IN CHARGE because they run (and ruin) the bloody world with their exaggerated sense of self-importance.

    Why a woman would want to be friends with the average guy (I said there were exeptions, didn't I?) is beyond my capacity to fathom.

    Men make good pets and errand boys and father confessors; handy custodians who can reach the top shelf and take the car in for a tune-up. They are seldom good in bed and think they are god's gift to the vagina!

    Men pee and don't wash their hands.

    Men belch, fart and grab ass like a bloody Medieval king in a stained royal robe.

    Men are best used as tools. They hardly ever see deeper than the first layer of your problems. They don't want to LISTEN to you--they want to FIX you.

    Men have two brains and one of them (the mastermind!) is in their dick.

    25% of men are deep and robust thinkers, wonderers, inventors and geniuses whose grasp of sanity is firm and whose passion for art and exploration are breath-taking. They are lightning in a bottle. Rare....so very, very rare!

    The rest can bloody rot.
