hello all,

 

i received a text from a nice younger ( 25 ) girl i met 2 weekends ago in my friends house, i never met her before but we talked to each other for 2 hours especially about a very common sporting interest

 

i haven't texted her back, she is very nice, she asked me advice about this sport and how to improve herself and what the local clubs are

 

i have no romantic interest in her but would it be a good idea to help her out and just be her friend?

 

does anyone think this would help me?

 

ps. if my ex was still with me she would have cracked up with jealousy!

There is nothing wrong with being friends. If you don't have romantic interest in be upfront and honest about it. There is nothing worse than thinking someone likes you more than they actually do. But if it's out in the open from the beginning this may begin a great friendship and it looks like you already have some common ground to build on.

sure man, be her friend. Dont see how that would be bad on your part....

I don't understand the "be her friend to make me feel better" thing - but being her friend just because it would be cool to be her friend is fine. I always extend my social network when I'm single, friends or lovers, because hanging out with new people really does get your mind off the lingering heartache.

You don't have to feel guilty about hanging out with females.

 

Be her friend. It's ok.
