Yvette_Sveden Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 SOME part of your woman wants you to put your foot down in protest, because it shows her that she matters to you. Absolutely.
Sauvignon Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 (edited) Personally I am unable to just be friends to women. I find it incredibly sexist, but I cannot change who I am. I think that large part of it is because I believe best relationships being deeply rooted in friendship and every girl I've been a 'friend' with, I have cared more about than would be suitable for platonic friendship. But I also make it rather obvious very early on, since I know that girls see things differently. I have to send out clear signs, that my behavior is not that of a friend. Now, I am not saying I do not have female 'friends' as you would describe it. I do. I tend to take this alpha position in social groups and I care for people with similar interests, such as making sure our group tasks get done in university or that we will all have fun when going to celebrate a birthday. Thus I can be close without really being close. But I do not consider them friends because I don't call them out for a movie night, ask them for lunch during work day, or get into passionate discussions about life with them. If that happens, I have a crush, because emotional dependancy on a woman is too similar to that of a relationship. Maybe this changes in time, but for now this is the wood I've been crafted from. But I am sure it is possible, just don't expect it to happen when a guy is single. I can only see it happening when I am not single. As long as I am in single mode, my radar picks up only potential relationships. We live in a busy world, the older you get the less time you have, if a guy is single and wants a lot of one on one time with you in 'friendship' then it is very likely that he has deeper feelings for you.
