I disagree partly with what asm said. I dont think its so black and white. I dont think we can say that all women fit into 2 categories and men into one. There is just too many men and women to be summed up like that so simply and shortly. I dont know if anyone else got this message from his post but i saw a don't be friends with women. Granted he did say if you are attracted to them. One of my close female friends I was attracted to when we met and wanted something more then friendship. She didnt, but I was so infatuated with her that I decided to stay friends. Today I dont look at her as someone i want an intimate relationship, we are just good friends now. I think if you want an intimate relationship with someone that it can only work if you have the ability to be friends, I dont mean afterwards, I mean they have to have the qualities you want in a close friend and the qualities you want in a lover. That relationship will work much better then the one about sex, or the one about friendship with the occasional sex on the side. If you cant be friends, how can you expect to be something more?
