"i dont think its possible for a truely platonic friendship ever "

i think its possible, i have a few guy friends who are truly platonic and we've never had any sexual tension. but i must admit that that is probably the exception, bc i know a few other guys who are hard to be "Just friends" with

depends on the girl

some are easier than other to be just friends with...I guess it depends on if you're attracted to your friends or not (physically, emotionally, etc)

You don't count. Once you put the ring on, you get removed from the ladder theory (for any guy who isn't a complete douche at least).

I'm friends with plenty of married women, that ring is the forcefield of platonic relationships.

State409c: You didn't read the section outlining the ladder for guys. Here it is posted for you:

Quote :

"So it should be self-evident, if you are following this at all, that the people you want to have sex with the most will be at the top of the ladder. Descending down to the bottom of the ladder we pass the following people: The people we really want, who may even be out of our league, are on top Then come the people we like Moving further down we pass the people who we would fuck if we were intoxicated and would admit to doing it later. At the bottom are the people we would fuck drunk, and would lie about doing it later. Clinging to the bottom are the girls that are wolf ugly. These are women so ugly you would chew your own arm off to get away rather than fuck them. Usually fake teeth, or the loss of several hundred pounds can move a woman up from wolf ugly. "

As you can see, it negates your bullshit claims and the ladder theory returns to working order

i support this theory

10/17/2006 11:18:05 AM

i must admit this theory is fairly accurate

10/17/2006 11:23:39 AM

I tried to fucking tell him!

10/17/2006 11:27:47 AM

But you still want to fuck her, right?

10/17/2006 11:39:33 AM

Sure, I understand. But woman have all those orifices, which are just asking to be probed. Trust me--"friend" or not, ugly or not--all it takes is a late night alone for a given friendly guy and girl and some alcohol. The "platonic" shit will be over.

10/17/2006 2:03:19 PM

yep

10/17/2006 2:04:54 PM

It is very possible. I'd say I'm right down the line, countwise, on male & female friends.
