Why guys don�t want to be friends with a girl who breaks up with them�

I know a girl who broke up with a guy and she told him she wanted to �still be friends.� He said, �No thanks.� She wondered why he couldn�t fall back to being just friends after they had a romantic relationship. I came up with the �McDonalds Analogy� to try and explain it in a simple way that would help all women understand this tough question.

Imagine if you went to McDonalds a lot and ordered a Big Mac Combo meal. A Big Mac, Large Fries and a Coke. You really like this meal. One day, you pull up to the drivethrough and order the Big Mac Combo meal and the girl tells you, �I�m sorry - you can have the Big Mac and the Coke, but you can�t get fries with that anymore.� You think about this for a moment, and sure - the Big Mac is the centerpiece of the meal, but McDonalds has some really good fries and you like their fries with your meal. So you say, �I�ve been able to get fries with that before, why can�t I have fries with my Big Mac combo anymore?� The girls says, �Well, I just think it is better if you only have the Big Mac and the Coke from here on out.�

At this point, a lot of guys are going to go to Wendy�s or BK and see if they can get fries with their combo at that drivethrough window. But there are some guys who REALLY like McDonalds Big Macs and they might think, �If I keep coming here and ordering the Big Mac and Coke, maybe she�ll change her mind and give me some fries with that later.� So they will keep on getting the combo without the fries until the deal breaker happens: One day that guy is going to order the Big Mac and Coke and then he�s going to pull up a little bit to pay, and someone else is going to pull up to the drivethrough speaker and order the �Big Mac Combo� and he is going to hear the girl say, �Would you like fries with that?�

That�s why guys don�t like to be friends with a girl who breaks up with them.

Some guys don't like fast food period.

It goes both ways. Except in the other scenario, the burger is literally meat. He'll still give you the meat, but not the wonderful comfort food fries. Jerk.

you had to come out with this lengthy analogy when it could of been summed up in a few words?

friends = no sex


My stance on this has changed over the years though. When I got "let's just be friends" I'd walk away from it. Now I don't. The reason being, my game is so good now I can turn it around easily to get sex again. Once you have control over the situation, LJBF is not a bad thing, only a minor setback.

How good is your game?

What is LJBF?

I am woman so I understand women better ( I guess) , SOMETIMES when we say" let's stay just friends" we actually mean:" sorry, I am done with you and I might start to look for a new guy, but we can still have sex if you try very hard to get me into your bed, which means not to make it look like that's my idea..."



Take it as a joke, ladies, if you found it offensive.

I don't remain friends with ex anyway.

I'm friends with my exes that I had open, honest discussions with when our breakups occurred. I'm not friends with those that LJBFed, then promptly ignored me. Yes, LJBF could be an honest sentiment; however, in my experience, it's a gutless way of saying "get lost".

I could go for some fries right now.

That must be a tasty burger. Why not go to McDonalds for the burger and BK for the fries?
