Friends I need an ear! I have recently been having a serious dry spell with guyswhat I'm a friendly girl! I know lots of guys, and that's because I've put most of them in the friend zone.
My ex was/ is a terrible person, yet, I gave him chance after chance.
My friend is a " nice" guy but he is about as much fun as getting a Pap smear... ladies back me up!frown
So, No... I've never gone " there" with him and WILL never!

I've told myself that unless I get that spark or immediate attraction, then I'm just not interested.
Is this a mistake? Should I really look deeper ? This is JUST dating, right? Shouldn't I only look deeper once there is a spark?

Help me out ladies... or guys! I'll listen to all who have valid advice! I'm tired of being ROMANTICALLY alone.


who says pap smears aren't fun?


Whaaaaat?? You say what now??

Every checkup I do,I feel sooooo very nekid...


lol....wouldja b'lieve me if toldja I was merely jesting?laugh :wink:

Reviewing our " friend" relationship... You're right! We aren't friends.
I treat all of my friends the same... I don't treat him like I would everyone else! with other guy friends, I can call up and say " Hey, knucklehead let's hit the sports bar.. the Eagles are playing"
I have never and will never make an invitation like that to him... anytime I've "met up" with him it's been him calling and asking me to meet, IF I'm already out!


It sounds like you've never been allowed to be comfortable with him because he seems to be edging from the "more than friends" angle, despite you making it clear that's not what you want. If he'd backed off to "just friends" you may have been more inclined to relax and enjoy his company. I've had "friends" like that too. If they don't accept it, you just have to cut them loose unfortunately. "Gotta be cruel to be kind, in the right measure."


I'm just curious... Does he?... or Has he?... ever told you about this one person he is so in love with? Not afterwards but while it's happening at the time. Mom always told me that if someone is interested in you... they never mention anyone else. I've used that as a barometer to tell if we can just be friends or if they (or even I) was just trying to work it in another way. Mom is a smart ole' gal... She was right every time.

I find it weird that he tries to get your attention, and then talks to you about some other woman. Maybe he wants his cake and to eat it? He sounds like a bit of a player, to me. He seem's confused.

What's up ppl new to this site and the Wa area but anyway to the
Beautiful lady
With the dry spell sweetie if he ain't trying for your attention he's not interested in the same sense putting a guy in the friend box just means he's sticking around as an opportunist he's waiting for his angle when your weak to pursue a little more than " friends"
In the same sence I don't know to many guys who can handle friends with women they always tend to let their mind believe that there's always room for more wink yeah
Then again I got 7 sisters so I'm the bleeding apitamy of friends but I put myself there "u ask Y"
What better way to kn a woman's true intentions and heart than being that friend who she can text call or w/3 during hard times
Then decide if I want more and be forward about it nothingsbetterthan honesty
Yeah I tend to jump around in a conversation

And yeah honestly I didn't read but the last page hope this might help you some never give up hope
And if he's to edgy it may be time to just cut ties don't let bitter loneliness make you keep a guy your not comfortable around
There's a lot of places to meet sane fun ppl around

I'll see if I can find a doctor that will do without looking at me like I'm nuts when I ask about it. Maybe I can get a hysterectomy while I'm at it. lol

I never understood the double post thing. Till once my finger twitched when I was clicking the post button and I got a double post. So I edited one of them. Some people must have some really twitchy fingers or they are very impatient. lol

Knowing that no two people are exactly alike, I still have my expectations that have to be met before I will consider dating someone. Life would be terribly boring if he were exactly like me, right? I expect different "likes" and "points of view", but there are certain things we must agree on. Also important not to have a personality that is not like sandpaper. There will be many "no's" before a yes that I will date him. and that yes will never be for a person without a picture or a profile written, or the wrong race. And after I finally agree to meet the person I expect most of those to be a failure. Knowing this, start early and keep plugging along. It would be nice to have someone in my life but I have the inner strength to say I'll be much happier alone than with the wrong person.

No it is not just dating, it is a piece of life that is shared and if not respected for what it is then people change, get cold, heartless, sometimes even kill. Be picky sweetie, take your time and stick it out tell you get what you are looking for. It is a big part of your every day when in a relationship, so the better it is, the better the both of you can be. Make some deal-breakers and stick to them & you will find that man you want and trust me, you will be happier then you have been with settling for whatever man catches your eye.

One of my deal-breakers is that if the girl is not a good mom or likes children then I can not date her. Seems harsh yes but when you think of what kind of person it takes to be a good mom, its a good thing for me cause I love passion, I love positive affirmation as well

No tee your not wrong at all
Your supposed to be sective and take your time to get the type person you want. If your ex was that terrible, i say be even more picky. Men always wanna pick n choose through us like its an *** market. Why shouldnt we be picky and have a checklist of requirements too? Take your time n dont lower the bar for no onedrinks
