Your just now figuring that out

Of course, now that your her best friend, you'll be obligated to help her all the time.

Of course, I'm sure that means we can be "best friends", and share EVERYTHING.

Yes....and I tend to get burned for it. Thats why I don't take many personal or profesional risks anymore...there's a lot of things I'd like to do, and a lot of people I'd like to talk to, but I realize I'm just going to get burned. And now, consequently, I've shut my emotions off so much I'm a little like Spock at the beginning of TMP and seem to be seen more as a cold heartless bastard then the caring individual I really am.

Well, being "best friends" SHOULD have certain, shall we say, "benifets" wouldn't you say?

NO!

Benefits.

NO BENEFITS!

Sorry, but I am against being a sex crazed jerk. "Friends with benefits" is just another way of saying "I'm using you" and I don't like that.

True enough. I happen to agree. And not having "benefits" makes everything so much easier.

I feel the same way as stitch, but she seems like she would like to be that way with me, but I'm never sure about things like this, it's hard to tell.

Me too. Good luck Brother.

Ok boys. Time for a life lesson from Uncle Mark.

Pull up a chair.

Women enjoy and crave those benifets as much as men do, although, granted not to the extent that men do until they are older, say anywhere between late teens to early 30s.

Before I got married, back in my early twenties, I had a really good friend. She and I were very close. We got along amazingly well, had similar interests, and enjoyed each others company. We acknowledged a physical desire for each other, but also recognized we had no romantic "spark". We were just to good as friends. We talked about it several times, and decided that since friends help each other, we could reasonably do so as well sexually. And it worked for several months, until she met someone, at which time, we stopped sleeping together, but still hung out.

The moral of the story is, if two people have a mutal desire and agreement, is anyone getting used? And if so, who is the one REALLY being used and for what?

Ok. Story time is over.

I doesn't matter which one is using the other, it shows a disrespect for both.

It would be totally cool if we could have flaming text.

Feeling passionetly, are you? 8)

Actually, I wanted it for my NO!.
