Friendship

[Bonzi]

I think someone has a physical or romantic emotional attracting in EVERY male/female friendship
I would say EXCEPT for the gay female/male or gay male/female - but even then.......

Tilly is very inuitive. ChrisL loves Bonzi topics. Bruce is not the only one, **** the study.

Get an education before you try to participate in topics that are way over your tiny pea brain. Stick with being a "wigger."

 

[Lumpy 1]

The woman that is my friend is attractive and still no sexual feelings for her...

Just how I am...

And what age group are you in? Do you think it is more difficult for perhaps younger people who might be more "hormonal" (for lack of a better word)?

Why don't you just pass judgement and get it over with.

Chris has already done it.

It their opinion and if they believe a man can not do it then so be it, and if she believe I am a phony then so be it...

Relax, she's skewering your pickle and testing your voracity, you don't feel like a phony, that's the end of it on your side.

Okay. Just what about any of my statements do you disagree with and why? What is "phony" about them. Please quote the posts you take issue with. TYIA.

I don't want to read all those and I don't have to.

In the past, when I was single and all, I met plenty of women that were sexy and available that I would't touch with a ten foot pole. It's not unheard of in other words.

I would agree with that. Most often there is going to be some level of sexual or intimate feelings/gestures/etc. To deny that is to deny biological instincts!

The part that you believe all men and it is not all men but a good majority of men think that way. Also there are women that act like the men you are writing about but I bet you believe no woman can act that way,right?

You are so hardcore on the thought that no man can be friends without being attracted to their female friend which tell me that you never had any real male friends or you believe they are all attracted to you, which I really doubt!

Of course, this might be different between older people who don't have much of a "sex drive" anymore.

What about men and women in their 20s? Do you think it is more of a challenge for a man and a woman in their 20s who are mutually attracted to maintain a platonic friendship? Do you think it would be more likely that their "friendship" would develop into something more, or at least involve some level of intimacy?

I don't care anymore what you believe.

You already called me a phony and a liar so why should I even respond to a woman that is set in her mind that every man in the world want to have sex with their friends?

You do not like the damn answers, and I am not going to play this stupid asinine game anymore with you!

You're a worthless twit!

Or they wouldn't allow you to touch them with a ten foot pole is probably more the reality of the situation. Lol. I'm sure you aren't half the stud you think you are.

Then you never had a real friend from the opposite sex!

 

[Bonzi]

Like I said, the only differentiation between friends and lovers is the physical or romantic attraction/feeling.

The only way to have that is for both parties to have ZERO interest in that sex.

A gay man and a gay woman likely could be friends.
A straight woman and a straight woman
A straight man and a straight man

Wow, and the insults keep flowing.

 

[G.T.]

If someone acts like they want to be your friend, talks to you every day then stops, but makes excuses

They are not your friend.... even if they won't admit it.

Yea well friendship is a 2 way street innit? There could be 7, 000 reasons. They coulda expected the other person 2 talk first. Etc etc. Thats a weak barometer. How about are they there for ya when like, your best friend dies or something, and not small shit like that other shit?

 

[Spinster]

What would your definition be of a "friend"?
Do you have many "real friends"?

Do you think friendship means different things to different people?
Do you think it's possible for men/women to be friends without one being a "little more interested" than the other?

A friend is someone that can be trusted and is committed to you from the standpoint they only want good for you. This type of friend isn't self-serving and puts your well being above their own. It is rare to find this level of friends. If you've found one such friend, you're fortunate. These are usually lifetime friendships. Most definitely men and women can have this type of friend, and is like that of a sibling. The secret of this type of friendship is in the "selection" process which must be done very carefully. We don't usually select these people, but rather it simply happens because it's a perfect fit.

You are just arguing against hard science and biological facts. No judgment is needed.

No, I am being told by someone that has had bad relationships in her life that all men are dogs, and can not be trusted. ( That is the opinion I have of you from the many responses I have read of yours! )

Where do you get the idea that I've had bad relationships? You know what? Never mind. Who cares?

You are making an outrageous claim here. That is all.

Well, to be fair, you too are making outrageous claims against Bruce. You can't tell him how he thinks just because a study indicated that many men do this, that or the other. I'm wondering why you get these bees in your bonnet whereby you start almost stalking people, telling them what they think and disbelieving what they tell you. It's quite offensive, when you become like a dog with a bone, imho.

Nope, just trying to get people to have an honest discussion instead of trying to make themselves sound special or like they don't experience these normal human feelings and emotions.

Well, your methods leave a lot to be desired. Who is going to want to answer your questions at all, if all you do is attempt to harass them, insult them, and call them liars?
And, btw, you can't extrapolate the findings of a study to every man you come accross. You do realise that the study indicates that NOT ALL men are the same? Although Why anyone needs a study to tell that is anyone's guess.

harder to have when you are attractive... no?

[Bruce_T_Laney]

Hmmm, alright it seem you will not accept my comment because of certain amount of men that have written in the past about how they think with their little head between their legs and not the head on their shoulders...

I believe a man and woman can have a friendship that does not result in wanting a little more than just friendship. I have been doing it for years and have never thought about taking my friendship with my female friend to the next level.

I consider her family.

Just how I feel on the subject matter...

Did you read post #21? Makes sense, no?

Read it and do not agree with it because I have had one time where the female told me she was being my friend so she could take it to the next level...

So it can go the other way and you have the rare man that is fine with having a female friend around and not be sexually attracted to the individual.

I know all men are dogs...

So you are going to claim that there is no "sexual temptation" or fantasizing involved in friendships between men and women and that, generally, nothing happens (in most instances)?

No, I am saying it can be done and that is all I am saying. ( The part where a male and female can be friends without sexual feelings )

As long as one of them is gay

I am not gay and neither is she.

 

[Bonzi]

A friend is someone that accepts you as you are, is not pushy, and flows naturally
Hard to find, just like a mate

I don't want a friend to lean on - I just want a person that likes me for who I am.

No, and please write that I am a phony while at it!

She probably wants you

In general, I am right. Do you disagree with that?

Bruce isn't a generality or a stat, and you asked for his experience then promptly insult him and call him a liar. And we're not even in the flame zone.
