Men can't just be friends with women with whom


they're in love with. Period.

And guys, if you are, don't sleep with your friend's lesbian sister.

It is damn near impossible. If you are best friends, you have to hear about all of her hookups and boyfriends. The friendship becomes awkward...and yes, I am talking from experience.

I totally agree with this

But he didn't know that she was in love with him, there were no obvious signs as she treated him like a buddy plus she was with his brother before so maybe he thought she'd never go for someone like him either because it would be disrespectful to the dead brother or too weird to her or something. Either way, he obviously assumed nothing would happen between them so he simply looked elsewhere.





Ashmi any question

Agree Ashmi... and let us not forget what that much alcohol will do to the sensical part of your brain.

The point the original poster is making is that he couldnt have been friends with her because he was in love with her. Its very hard. Him knowing she loved him is irrelevant.

so true, its almost impossible.

Of course it's true. And I'm hoping that someday Nora Ephron, Rob Reiner, Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan will team up and make a movie about this issue.

@goleafsgo, priceless hahaha :D

It goes the other way too, by the way ;)

reply

Sadly Nora Ephron passed away in 2012 but yes I do see the point you're making. I think it can be possible, under the right circumstances, but it is rare. That's what makes such friendships so wonderful.

reply

Well that's a bit of a "duh" statement.

How about this one: Men can't just be friends with women they find physically attractive without eventually wanting to date them/*beep* them/fall in love with them.

Agree/disagree?

reply

Same goes for women, genius.

reply

Exactly. Nobody can just be friends with someone they're in love with. But I definitely believe that men and women can be friends.


You heart me? What is that? Is that like I love you for pussies?

reply

True and it goes both ways too
I think it is just that nobody believes in friendship, not as their first option anyway
so they might settle for it only if they can't have more
there is a movie called Just Friends, that is how most of ppl look at friendship.
