Can men and women just be friends? Enjoy a platonic relationship, just enjoy each others company? I suppose it's feasible but there is a problem in that the man is always going to want to shag the woman.
Because basically men and women are completely different in their attitudes. Most men could quite happily have fun times with a bird, knowing she's just a friend, but still happily jump into bed with her at the end of the day, sort of like a shag buddy.
But most women don't work like that. they won't shag a friend. They think it will spoil things. So thats problem number one.
Then what if the bloke actually really cares about her and wants to be more than friends, but she doesn't want to know? What does he do then? Does he just keep seeing her and hope she changes her mind?
What if he just accepts it, puts up with the fact that she doesn't want to know and just enjoys her company anyway. It seems to me that that situation can cause problems as well. What happens when she gets a bloke? How does he cope with that, knowing someone else is getting what he desperately wants and is never going to get? How does he cope with meeting her new bloke and trying to be happy for her when inside he is hurting?
Do women understand that when they are in a relationship men are quite happy to let them have male friends, dance with other men etc because they know that the woman is theirs and thinks they are special? Do they understand that usually when a man gets jealous it's because he's not with her and isn't getting what he craves?
And why are women so bloody fussy in the first place? Why do they always want a guy to be perfect? Why is it that a man can accept a womans faults, overlook a lot of her physical defects because he thinks such a lot of her. But a woman always wants the man to be the man of her dreams, the perfect specimen.
Maybe if woman were to lower their standards now and again, as we men do, they would be far better off and far happier.
Now here is a bird I'd happily lower my standards for!
