Buttons, is it hot in here, or is it just you?
It is so you.
You are so hot that when you walk down the street, little people melt.

I try.

and 20 yrs is always a good thing.

going to get the celtic heart or just the celtic around it?

Here's another perspective

Had a friend, he wanted more, I was not willing to risk the friendship.
We remained friends.
Now he is married and I always regret that I didn't give it a try.

Cause I think being with someone who knows you that well and who you feel you can tell anything to would be something special...

So even though it may not work and maybe you can't go back...some may find it's still worth the risk...

When we make decisions in life, sometimes it's better to accept them rather to have them haunt you.

People often mistake a fantastic opposite sex friend for something that could have been much more. I will not, absolutely 100% not even entertain doing something/starting a relationship with one of my female friends. Why? honor, loyalty, trust and I'm real. You can count on me. Maybe we are all not talking about the same types of friends. My best friend is a woman. Does this mean she would be a great lover or significant other for me? Hell No!! It means that she is a fantastic friend and I respect her and that friendship. My friendship for her is real, it's not some kind of joke that could fuel our hormones.

We keep each other strong when the other is weak, we share all of our experiences and more than a few times over the years I have protected her. We are like siblings. How is that different? Well, for some of you, it obviously is'nt. If I wanted more and did'nt tell her or had some hidden motives, I would be scum.

Against popular belief here...sex does not destroy the honor, loyalty, or trust of a true friendship, unless one of the people involved is not mature enough to handle it! One of my best friends is a man that I have been close with since high school (~19 yrs now). We have had sex several times over the years and never once has that affected the friendship we share nor any of the relationships we have had with respective significant others.

He is the only man that ever stood up to my father in my defense, although he got knocked the eff out too-LOL! We also have never wanted a serious relationship with each other...we love each other, but not in that sense (we never felt in love with each other). A serious relationship would likely ruin the friendship or at least risk it, but sex is sex and when you are lonely it helps to be with someone you feel comfortable with, that will satisfy your need, and won't give you anything soap & water can't wash off!

The more posts people write where confusion sets in, the more what I say is true. Simply put, when you keep a friendship as a friendship, and a relationship as a relationship, life is simpler.

And with few exceptions, you can't go back.

I have gone there and back and the friendship remained as strong or stronger for a long time after the physical ended. I think the key is the same as it is for any relationship, Honesty. I remained close friends for almost 6 years after the physical part ended. The friendship only ended because of unnecessary lies, and inconsiderate actions.

I believe that the strongest romantic relationship has to start with friendship. If your partner isn't your best friend, the person you want to talk to, laugh with, and spend time with how can it be the person you want to be intimate with?

I'm not saying that every friend of the opposite sex is or should be the right romantic partner. I am simply saying that if your "Best Friend" brings up the subject of taking it to the next level, chances are that the friendship is destined to change. Becoming romantic with your friend may not work out, or it may end up being the best thing that ever happened. Once the subject is out there it is inevitable that the friendship will change, how it changes will depend on the people involved and how honest they can talk about it.

I guess Shiki is tired of Shikettes trying to run him over with their cars. Shiki is, after all, a gentle little desert flower.
