So loyal deserving friend for many years in love with you gets nothing, random total stranger gets the full unbridled rompy? Nice.

Excellent!

Excuse me miss, we've never met. Please bend over and grab your high heels.

maybe it's chick logic, but it makes perfect sense to me.

Sleeping with the guy who loves you just that one time, and then taking off for a year will only string him along, ruin the friendship and it doesn't sound as though there's any heat there anyway.

My friend told me that he wants me to infect South Korea with the clap. I told him that while I wasn't going to test this theory, South Korea more than likely already had the clap.

So yes, it's been discussed Razz

No room for resentment. Can't "ruin the friendship" if you aren't friends.

Now that they know they won't have to see you every day for the rest of their lives, they are comfortable letting you know they want a no string attached *beep*.

It's not a compliment.


It's not necessarily an insult either.


Insult might be too strong of a word, but it's still better than compliment. He's saying "yeah, I want you, 'friend'. But only if it isn't too much trouble for me." Hmph. No thanks. Guy puts in no effort out of the sack, he's probably not going to be very effective in it either.

Peppermint and Draz get it. The men don't.

Why doesn't this surprise me?

If the friend were in love with me for years, he'd know me well enough to know not to tell me that days before I left the country. Maybe your female friends would find that romantic. I find that bullshit and any one of my close friends--in love with me or not--would know it.

The basic truth is that women do not want guys who want them. They only want to sleep with guys..that don't want to sleep with them. By declaring his love, he garuanteed his failure and a "lets just be friends" lecture.

No, I get it. I know this is not the "mysogyny thread" but its obvious that on the face of it, its an unfair logic at play. Loyal friend may be the most deserving but random stranger gets the gold. In fact the less deserving he is, the more likely he is to hit the target. In essence, a man is not permitted to fall for a woman: only females get that luxury and still manage to hold onto the object of their desire.

You see it everywhere: the only lasting relationships are ones where the guy is fully in control because he has no real emotional attachment to the woman. If a guy has feelings, he will soon be single again. Wink

I've got to ask if the same situation happens when the woman (or man) leaves Korea.

"So, um, we won't be seeing each other since you're going back home, so, why don't we do it?"

It sounds like something from summer camp when we were younger.

Sure we do. We just need to want them back. If you've been friends for years and nothing has happened, there's at least one person there who doesn't want. And then to suddenly declare feelings right when he finds out she's going overseas? Sounds like he was deliberately setting himself up for failure. Or a cheap lay. OR he actually wanted her to drop everything and change all her plans to be with him. One of those. Not sure which one is the worst.

The only unfair logic is how being a good friend would make someone "deserving" of sex. You don't earn sex. Either two people want to have sex with each other or they don't. Can't trade friendship for sex, sex for sex is the way it works between friends. If no one wants your sex, you can find someone who will take cash but trying to cash in friendship is... icky.

Being a bit harsh aren't we? Maybe you've never had feelings for someone, but if you have you'll know how nervous/shy you might become with declaring such feelings? But to you thats all just a sign of weakness. You'd rather be with someone who has no feelings because he acts completely cool and in control.
You see this is what happens. And then later when the woman is cheated on/ dumped for someone else, she suddenly seeks out mr nice genuine guy again to pick up the pieces.

I'm not blaming anyone for their nature. Just saying this is a biological imperative that bears little relation to our societal notions of what is fair or just.

Heh. Fair question, though you're likely just pulling my leg Wink

To answer the question, no, I didn't take anybody up on their offers yet. I doubt that I will. Frankly, I wasn't all that flattered and only had any interest in one. My issues with that particular individual would result in a long, not very interesting story... so I won't get it to it. Laughing

Thinking some female friend's pu ssy is your wish fulfillment center is unfair logic at play.

As for the rest of your crap, "only females get the luxury," blah blah blah. Sounds like you've tried to apply your screwy logic to one too many female friends and gotten shot down, buddy.
