A new lady friend called me last night. We have only spent time together alone a few times, but she came over a couple of times and helped me trim Amelia's nails and bathe her.

I tried putting the move on her a couple of weeks ago and she said, "Please don't tell me you are going to do that."

"Not if you don't want me to.." I said.

She told me she was just getting to feel safe with me. That's cool.

Last time I saw her was Saturday. Sold her some speakers.

Last night she called me just to let me know she would be out of town until Saturday.

Is that sweet? Is that considerate? We've never even kissed. We may never kiss. That doesn't matter.

I just appreciate the hell out of the fact that she knows I appreciate her.

Just the way I am.

You're such a terrific guy, riff.

I adore you.:heart:

Hi Riff, I'd call this very sweet personally. :D

Sounds like you have a nice lady there.
 
She is a very nice woman. I admire her very much- not obsessively like the traditional needy literotican male. I just admire her. When she called, I felt like I just got admired back- could be all in my head, but that's what it felt like.
 
I think you are right and that is an amazing feeling to have for someone. To just be admired.
I imagine it would be rather intoxicating.

JL:kiss:

btw- I'm one post away from 5000. Brings back memories, riff.:)
 
It now comes down to the old Billy Crystal argument in some film with some blonde chick who faked an orgasm in a restaurant - shit cant remember

anyway - the point he was making was that a male and female cannot ever have a truly platonic relationship

Sex will eventually rear its ugly head - call me a cynic - but you have met this woman - you fancied her early on - she knocked you back a bit - now you admire her because you know she knows that you appreciate her !!

If you like her you need a distinct plan of action to woo her heart or get her into bed ! Appreciation and admiration can come later !!

That is such bullshit. My closest friends are men and those issues only came up with 2 of them. And just because sex becomes an issue at some point doesn't mean you can't get past it.

I think that male/female friendships that don't involve sex are very important and valuable and I hate it when people discredit them over sex. That's rediculous.
 
Riff,

You are special. You are precious. Please, never doubt that. :)

I wish we were neighbors.

Heh Billy Crystal said it not me :) No I agree you can have close friends without sex- becoming an issue - but even you said it only came up with 2 . and I agree too that you can of course get past it. Relationships are very complex things wither this be a friend or a partner - it is something like being at school everyone had a fling - ok crush on everone until eventualy it settled down and you could be friends -

It might just be flirting - for god sake look at the board we are on it is still a way of expressing our sexuality with the opposite sex - who maybe friends
The closest femail friend I have is an ex - I dunno I think that you will always have little bit of testosterone / hormones running around . I am not trying to belittle your friendships - just putting a point over . and last point men will always be men its their job and we cant help it :D
