I'm just saying...Girls no staight guy wants to be your "good friend" if you are the least bit hot.. we want the "benefits" ...

Friends we got..
Famous scene from "When Harry mey Sally":

Harry Burns: You realize of course that we could never be friends.
Sally Albright: Why not?
Harry Burns: What I'm saying is - and this is not a come-on in any way, shape or form - is that men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way.
Sally Albright: That's not true. I have a number of men friends and there is no sex involved.
Harry Burns: No you don't.
Sally Albright: Yes I do.
Harry Burns: No you don't.
Sally Albright: Yes I do.
Harry Burns: You only think you do.
Sally Albright: You say I'm having sex with these men without my knowledge?
Harry Burns: No, what I'm saying is they all WANT to have sex with you.
Sally Albright: They do not.
Harry Burns: Do too.
Sally Albright: They do not.
Harry Burns: Do too.
Sally Albright: How do you know?
Harry Burns: Because no man can be friends with a woman that he finds attractive. He always wants to have sex with her.
Sally Albright: So, you're saying that a man can be friends with a woman he finds unattractive?
Harry Burns: No. You pretty much want to nail 'em too.
Sally Albright: What if THEY don't want to have sex with YOU?
Harry Burns: Doesn't matter because the sex thing is already out there so the friendship is ultimately doomed and that is the end of the story.
Sally Albright: Well, I guess we're not going to be friends then.
Harry Burns: I guess not.
Sally Albright: That's too bad. You were the only person I knew in New York.

    well it depends

    IMHO
    if you are friends with a woman for awhile and benefits happen later, then you can go back to being friends
    if its a romantic relationship from the start, then you cant be friends after


    and ive known some hot women that Ive wanted nothing more than to bee friends-too crazy with their boyfriends

    Don't ya know it.

    When you become friends with a hot, nice girl, well you start thinking they're the package.

    I have a number of hot friends, and I would be lying if never thought about them in another sense.

    See, in reality the FIRST thing that got you interested in her was how HOT she was.. and as long as you want to sleep with her then you are not "just friends"..

    read Harry's argument in the first post..

    Well initially, of course I want to bone them. But I'm a realist, it ain't going to happen. They're like first division, I'm 2nd or 3rd Division. It's rare that I step up and play in their league. But I can be friends with them, just it would be nice for a few fringe benefits.

    But if all this is common knowledge (because this saying is nearly as old as time itself), then how come chicks stay friends with you, if they know guys only want one thing???

    Oh and what about like mates girlfriends??? I would consider them friends, and I don't want to sleep with them because well, it would damage friendships.

    Not necessarily just that - because women generally would like to be friends with guys....speaking for myself...regardless of what a guy wants from the relationship - it's easier to be friends with guys...they're simpler. Girls are bitches...and guys are fairly open usually. If you choose to be friends with a guy, yes, you know he would like to have sex or take things further, but you also know that in all likelihood, he isn't going to act on those desires unless you make the first move giving him an indication that he can. A girl can then have a guy as a friend, knowing what he wants makes it easier to be natural and friendly around him. Girls say stuff they don't mean, they are harder to be friends with....sorry if that doesn't make sense...I just personally find it easier to relate to guys and be friends with them, than women...so that's my take on it. ;)

    becos, as chris rock says, it's like having a dick in a glass jar just in case nothing else works out. women also seem to be able to just ignore it or pretend it isn't true.

    Its easier to be friends with the opposite sex because their is no competition to speak of. Guys are just as catty as women. I work with nothing but dudes, and you would swear its a soap where I work. I can say the same thing about women, they are really easy to talk to and get along because there is no competition and the lines are respected more then with same sex friendships.

    I got a woman to admit that women secretly know that they can't be just friends and that they keep a small amount of dudes on deck for those just incase moments. They fall into two categories: the first one is some one they will have sex with but don't have the same excitement as the bad boy, and usually are the rebound guy (these are also the guys they marry once they realize they can't control the bad boy). The second is dude they don't find attractive at all but will listen to their problems and won't create drama like another women would.

    As stated before, I work with nothing but dudes, I have NEVER heard any of them say they were real friends with a woman, just something they are working on until its their turn.

    Its a sad world, but its the reality of it. I call my friends to do guy things...i.e. Playstation, go shooting, play hockey, help with working on a car....etc. Women for the most part don't like to do those things, so there isn't as much in common with them except for one thing! :D

    I've never understood how women don't know this - especially when you are younger, like in your 20s, men think of every respectibly cute/hot woman they meet in those terms at some point. doesn't mean men will act on it, but the thought always creeps into our mind at some point.
  • i usually give myself away with the awkward pause then hand to vagina, if you make it unimpeded then its all good.
