What about your FRIEND? Posted on 06-04-2005
Kool 2k6

Ladies, I have a question to ask: Lets say that your best friend is a male.... Male is really, really, REALLY feeling you, and has been for a long long LONG time, but he realizes that he is your friend, and has been your friend for a long time. He also realizes that he can't be more than that if you dont want him to....He never does stop being your friend because he realizes that friendship in a bf/gf/fiance'/marriage type relationship is vital to the success in a relationship. He ALSO cherishes the fact the you and he are close friends, just because good friendship is hard to find..... The point I'm getting at is this: Why do ya'll always overlook the one that will always take care of you and looks out for you and your best interest? Why do ya'll exclude him from being a candidate for building a relationship with, when you know full well that he's a good man, and he will stand by you, support you and help aide you in keeping a healthy relationship? Why do ya'll exclude your true male friend from being 'next to you'????

I see where you are coming from with this one. I don't know about the rest of the ladies, so I'll just speak for myself. With me I am not overlooking my male friends at all. I have a few (one in particular) who I'd definately look at for a future relationship. The thing is a serious relationship is not what I'm looking for right now. When I'm finished having my fun and doing my thing, those close friends are who I'm going to be looking for when I want a serious relationship. They are not being excluded at all. But that just me.

For me it's not that i overlook that male best friend it's just that he doesn't do it for me. I'm not attracted to him and that's why were such good friends because i don't feel like i have to hold back. I'm not trying to impress him but i also don't want to mess up a good thing

To be truthful, I have a long distance best friend now, I tell him EVERYTHING. But I have a boyfriend whom I ADORE and really, I'm kind of hesitant to be in a relationship with my friend, not because he's not a great guy, because he is! I don't wanna risk a friendship right now not to mention he has a "friend" he's talkin to. In the future, MAYBE...we'll see what it holds. But trust me, I'm not overlooking him. It's just kinda complicated right now...

^^ pretty much i wouldnt exclude someone who goes great with my personality and whom i can confide in and trust. that'd be stupid. however, i must admit that looks matter to me. so, if im not physically attracted in any way to him, we'd prolly be keeping it at the friend level.
Yeah, alot of times that is the case. Or it may not even be about looks. U could be attractive in her eyez, but someone can't force their heart to feel sumthin that isn't there. If she isn't in love with u (or doesn't see the possibility), then she may not want to take it further than friendship. And sometimes someone just might not want to lose that friendship that they value. It could be out of fear that if the relationship doesn't work out, then things might become awkward and u lose that closeness

She might just not like you. Being a good guy doesn't always change if she's attracted or not.
