"Just Friends"

[Doctor Z]

This is a recurring theme. The fuck is the deal? I can't handle hearing this line again. I really can't.

[JerseyRich]

It's not you. It's me.

[SatCam]

ive spent the last 5 years avoiding women just so i didnt get hit with that line

[Dougie Brootal]

im about to hit a chick with that line... dreading the conversation. its always so obvious when you dont wanna be friends.

Can we be "friends?"

[Dougie Brootal]

shave your beard.

[JerseyRich]

shave your beard.

Anti-beardite.

[Doctor Z]

I've gotten this way too often, literally since high school... and moments ago, I was just hit with it again. Thinking I was too grizzled and beaten for it to bother me anymore, I didn't expect it to hit me hard. But I was wrong. It's just as bad this time as it was the first. What the fuck is it...

I feel absolutely fucking terrible right now.

The thing is that you've got to let a woman know you're interested in being far more than "just friends" at a very early stage in the relationship.

A lot of guys seem to think that they'll win a chick over by being the nice guy who is always there for them.

That's not how it works in a woman's mind.

are you sure about that???

[west milly Tom]

The key is in the approach. Don't try to ease into things. Always keep it clear that you want to get in it not befriend it.

i disagree with them. nothing's universal. i'm usually good friends with a gal before we end up dating. then again, i'm lovable.

I enjoy being friends first too. When I was single, that is.....

[Dude!]

next time go for the
pre-emptive break up

[JerseyRich]

Wait a minute!

[Doctor Z]

That's the thing though... In the early years, I didn't know this. I eventually wised up and made my approach much more forward. I've been seeing this girl, NOT as a friend, for almost 2 months now. Things were starting to look good and just when I thought it was taking off, she hits me with the just friends line today. Really? That's strange, cuz I didn't think we were just friends when you were blowing me.

I can't fucking take this anymore.

[biggirl]

Although...whenever I broke up with a guy or he broke up with me...we never stayed friends. I am just starting to become friends with them now after 12 years!! Crazy.

Friends with benefits...that is what she was thinking...that's bitchy.

I'm sorry, I call bullshit. Even if you were "friends" first, there was always a thing in the back of your head that was like "I'd definitely bang this person". Every interaction thereafter may be an exercise in disproving that origional thought before you actually did bang that dude, the fact remains, you always were ready to bang him.

As someone who's slept with at least 3 women, I can tell you that there was an air of inevitability about it every time. There are no surprises. Either it's there or it's not.

[Sinestro]

Who uses the line "Just Friends" more? Men or Women?

Lledder get a poll up and running on this. Chop chop!

[weekapaugjz]

Can't tell you the amount of times I've heard this in my life. Fortunately, ill never have to hear it again.

see, you told me you wanna be married in 30 years and that are your intentions
no confusion here!

[~Katja~]

It's not you. It's me.
It's not me, it's you!

[Ritalin]

Let me put it this way: do you think that Mikeyboy and Gvac don't already know they're going to sleep together?

Of course not.

Inevitability, my friends. Inevitability.

(Cue "Anticipation")

[Brad in Bama]

Kick em to the curb. You don't need that indecisive shit. I'm 31 and married now, but back in the day, you got one maybe two dates with me. I used to get that nice guy shit, just friends shit, and it's all a nice way to let someone down.

Be up front, and just remember you're not going to get far trying to win someone over. Give it one or two dates to see how compatible you are. If you're both up front, and after a couple of dates things don't get off the ground, punch out and save face.

I developed this mentality in my early 20's after getting that same old same old. I dated a bunch of really nice people that I'm sure I could have got the same treatment with had I not punched out when things didn't seem to be going anywhere.

maybe you're a joba, not a mariano.

[CofyCrakCocaine]

Job? Things ended bad for him.

Hey I can't tell jokes here?! what the F.

keep your chin up. we'll turn this thing around.

[Mr.Misery]

You can't be 'just friends' with a woman, unless maybe she's already attached to someone. I find that even women who I have no particular attraction to at first can soon become desirable if we're both single, and if she's 'passable' in the looks department...and even then...

If you're like me and you have no prospects, a friendship with a single woman is the most dangerous thing in the world. Stay away. You'll just get hurt. If you really like someone, come out and be direct about it...otherwise, you just prolong the inevitable.

Nah, I don't buy the "can't be friends with a woman" thing.

Of course you can.

[Jujubees2]

I was friends with my wife for about five years before we started dating. Of course, when we first met she had a boyfriend and then we ended up living in different states for a majority of the time.

[El Mudo]

It sucks now, but you've got to look on the bright side. Do you REALLY want to be with a woman who would flake out on you after two months? I had one that flaked out on me after three months, and while it sucked, eventually I realized I was much better off.


It just takes time...just make sure you don't blame yourself for the shortcomings of other people. That only takes you down the pity-party "why me?" road, and that's not a good place to be in.

[Dougie Brootal]

my best friends are women.

[nate1000]

If she was blowin you before and now wants to be friends- there is new cock in the picture=- you've been upstaged.






(either that or your goo tastes like sludge.)

[Furtherman]

I've got enough friends.

Not if shes hot. Because if shes hot and youre single (and sometimes that dont matter) all she has to say is "Wanna fuck?" and there goes the friendship. No guy is gonna turn down sex with a hot chick for a friendship.....unless he has a secret.

Doc, it sounds to me like youre just too nice a guy. When she said she wanted to be "just friends", youre response shouldve been "Ive got enough friends. Im looking for a girlfriend. If I wanted another friend, Id buy a dog. If you wanna go, see ya. But lets not kid ourselves and act like we are gonna be buddy buddy because were not."

Shes already leaving, so youre not costing yourself anything, and at least you keep your dignity. If shes gonna dump you at least force her to be honest. If anything she might have some newfound respect for you standing up for yourself and give you a farewell blowjob.

With all due respect, your OP was misleading. Just Friends generally means you don't get any from the girl ever. When she says it after you guys have been fooling around, she is just breaking up with you.

C'mon, you don't really believe that, do you? You can't be single and have a friendship with a hot chick unless you're gay?

[A.J.]

Yeah, I had enough of that too.

[SHANEFROMGA]

i feel for ya, i got that damn "your like a brother to me" line so damn many its when i was single i coulda killed somemore..... some one. really do you think i wanna be your "friend" or "brotherly" person now having spilled my feelings out there all open and honest like!!
friends my ass.

[CofyCrakCocaine]

Just a friend to her? fuck her friends. then she'll reveal that she's always wanted you but hates you for fucking her friends then asks why you two were always just friends. this scenario never ends well for you and her. but at least she wants you.

[9mileskid]

just get married,you'll be pals soon enough

[Gmann]

Hey! I have lots of really hot chick friends and Im not gay!
