    Here's an idea...fuck asking Agnes out on a date, we all know by now that your version of "tomorrow" never comes.

    INSTEAD, ask PJSoul on a date. You're both single. You share a seemingly common mindset on who you're with isn't necessarily the one you need to spend your free weekends having fun with. You both seem fond of beer. And you are both PJ fans. 

    BOOM!!!!!

    Ok I haven't read the last 90 posts since I last came here but I'm with mcgruff FOR ONCE
    I have a very vast experience  of relationships and it cannot work the way some are saying.  Are you spiritual  and pj soul ..single atm? Because  that makes a huge difference in this conversation!
    I am telling you is IS totally possible... Apparently YOU are simply not capable of it. And no, my current single status has no bearing because obviously I'm spending time with married men, as was made clear, and have been doing it through all my relationships that I've had since the age of 13, up through my common marriage (and no, my being single now has nothing to do with this issue, lol). My being currently single is completely irrelevant to this conversation. And I just find it EXTREMELY sad and disappointing and actually quite fucking sexist that people think platonic friendships between men and women can't work. And personally insulting that I'm confirming that they can (and I'm talking for decades with these same male friends), and apparently people aren't believing me?? I dunno. But my best friend in the entire world is a married man, and I was his best woman at his wedding. We have remained best friends through every relationship either one of us has ever been in, none of which were negatively impacted by our friendship in any way. My second best friend is my third best friend's husband. My 4th best friend is the married man whose wife happily picks him up from my place. You are wrong in thinking it cannot work. We are all just friends. Same as if it were two men or two women being friends. It's not that complicated FFS.
    It is sad when you are a woman who usually gets along better with guys than with other women, and you can't be friends because they're already with someone else. In my experience, it has had more to do with partners being concerned about emotional intimacy than physical intimacy. I'm not a big fan of small talk and like to talk about things that are none of my business, so I absolutely understand when their girlfriends or wives object. I haven't  been able to swing the being friends with the significant other thing, so there you go. I can only be friends with single guys. It is just simpler that way.
    All you have to do is be on good terms with the guys' wives.... Obviously the wife needs to know the woman and trust her not to be some kind of man eater or something. :lol:

    Most of the married folks I know are too busy with work and kids to spend an evening or weekend alone together.  If they have time to go to a movie or dinner they go with their spouse.

    So most of the married folk you know never go out with friends without their spouses? Male/female friendships aside, that doesn't seem altogether healthy in general. I don't know ANY married couples who don't do things separately sometimes.

    I just think it's an interesting thing to talk about.

    ^^ Was looking for a Potato/PoTAHto gif and the Vodka pic came up.  Found it appropriate, for me, but am just sayin' I find the same arguments being played over and over to be 'beating a dead horse'.  If you enjoy it please don't let me stop your fun, carry on!  :)

    Philly 2016. A group of degenerates, including yours truly, rented an AirBnB flophouse. I think it was four or five men and two women in the house. The women slept upstairs, and I did, too -- in an alcove right outside their room, to be specific. My wife never met these women -- and I hadn't yet either, at least not in person; we were just good forum buddies -- she knew that these were the sleeping arrangements and gave zero fucks about it. (And if anyone knows what a fine specimen of man I am, it's my wife, right? I mean, how in the world would those ladies resist all of this. :lol: ) Nope. She just wanted me to travel safely, have a good time with my imaginary friends and not wind up in jail. 

    Fenway 2018. One of those women friends crashed at our house, meeting my wife for the first time, and they got along quite well. Actually, the other woman made it to the cookout that I had on the off day between shows and met my wife as well.

    Now we all know each other, and that's great, but it really didn't matter before. It sounds like some of you would get some divorce papers in the 2016 scenario. That's too bad. I made a new bestie on that trip.

    But your marriage and family always come first. You've got to abide by whatever works for you and yours. So again, I'm not judging at all, but I do find it odd and a little sad, as I'm sure you find my arrangement odd. Takes all kinds.

    The Dude abides.

    I heard a story about a guy being denied the right to shit upstairs late at night, when he was drunk, because he was not Dankind nor female.
    Sexist pigs!

    But you can't trust her. Hanging out with people of the opposite sex and things like they're... regular people or something...

    Are you crazy? Been there, done that. There is no way I'm giving up my magical single status at the moment - it's awesome!!! Get back to me when I'm old and worried about dying alone. :lol:;) But S_C, we can be friends, and if you ever ask Agnes out, I promise she doesn't have to worry about anything sordid happening when we hang together. =)

    My wife and I took a half a vacation day today together. We went out to lunch and did some shopping. I can’t imagine spending that time with another woman.
