"You're a good friend."

That's what I'm tired of. I mean, what the FUCK, right? I'm a good guy; I'm nice, I'm fairly talented and all that, and I'm not even butt-ugly like Bean. So why the hell is it that that women see me as some sort of a-sexual creature like, "You're so nice; let's just be friends." Why the hell isn't it, "Sure, I'll go out on a date with you"?

I've had a lot of beer tonight, so I'm in a ranting mood. But like, waht the shit, man? Am I too nice for my own good? I had a good thing going, too... and then she's like, "You're not a better or worse choice, I just chose someone else." Well, y'knwo, that sounds to me like I was a worse fucking choice. So lemme get this straight; I treated you like a queen for 3 months, but you went back to the guy who treats you like dirt and he's not the BETTEr chohice, just differnet? What kind of fucking bass-ackwards logic is that??

"You're the closest friend I've ever had." Well, Jesus, that means a whole lot when I got ditched for your EX... y'know, the one you broke up with because he was a DOUCHEBAG. The one where you went and spent hte weekend with him and I ask how it went and you sayd, "ugh, I don't want to talk about it."

Yeah. Taht makes my self esteem just fuckign skyrocket.


FUCK.

Dood... sounds like she's the douchebag, and that she's attracted to other douchebags. Otherwise, why would she choose an asshole over you?

Let her alone, wish her a happy life with her douchebag, and be glad that you aren't saddled with that mess.

Ignore her....Act like you don't see her even when your looking right at her. She'll come running back. Never seen TOO interested.

More than half the women that said to me "I just want to be friends" confronted me a year later, asking "Why haven't you ever asked me out?". They couldn't even remember that the snubbed/snobbed me.

Also, ever notice that, when you are in a very public relationship (or married), that old girlfriends, fuck-buddies and chicks of general interest come out of the woodwork in droves, BUT, if you're a bachelor who's down on his luck and "between relationships", not a single one of them will give you the proverbial time-of-day?

It's true. I know it sounds clichéd but the trick really is to play it cool, be polite, but don't go out of your way for them, and they'll make their own mind up. At least that's what's always worked for me.

In fact I get the opposite thing to what you've got going on, I always think of women as friends or even "acquaintances" and don't really think about pursuing them, most likely because I'm too lazy and too busy thinking about some kind of scheme to get rich (seriously, I'm usually bored in social situations and tend to be rather distracted by something stupid that's on my mind when people talk to me). What usually happens is that the resulting conversation is rather brief on my side, the woman gets to talk a lot, which she likes, and probably makes me a good listener (though I'm still actually thinking about whether or not there's any money in a "man with van" enterprise), we politely exchange contact details, so we can hang out (as far as I know), and things generally just happen from there, as long as I don't make any assumptions, or even care...really.

I think it's time to throw in the towel on this one though.

Yeah, she sounds like a waste of time, big-time. You should write her off...and then pull your car onto her lawn and burn some "donuts"...

Then, treat yourself to an iPhone...Loving this thing!

I agree. If he says that's childish, just casually point out that a child can't drive! That'll show'er!
