emcee, they are my weakness too. Hence my cougar crush. *sigh*

I've been seeing a couple guys (OK, I use that term loosely...really, we've just been hooking up. Yes, I'm a slut, we all know that)
ROFL!! JAG2 I bow to you and your amazing forthrightness. As we've discussed previously...Be the slut...Embrace the slut!!
Well ladies, I don't want to rub it in..but I'm off to the grocery store..
DON'T HATE!!
Wow, that is a long time, Schmerg.
I'm worried we wouldn't be such great friends anymore, especially if we broke up.
That's one of my biggest fears about ever starting to date friends. Totally.
*hugs Emcee*
I miss the old get-togethers, also.
We need to plan something soon!
Today at 10.40 in the pm, I am doing nothing but sitting here chatting to y'all. I was watching Flight of the Conchords but then I had a nap. I have some Battlestar Galactica and a couple of films I could be watching too (check me out, I can TOTALLY make my own movie decision this evening!), but you all type too fast so I'm not getting much opportunity to do anything else. ;D
At the risk of sounding like a total creeper, if I were as hot as jag, I'd be a total hussy too. Alas, I am too fond of my innate homeliness to make the effort all the time.
ARGH, CLEVER NAME!! Do you have to make us jealous with your grocery store exploits all the time? I can't wait until I'm grown up and I can go to the grocery store, too!
I'd buy nine kinds of cereal and Disney princess fruit snacks and those six-packs of banana cream pudding and lots and lots and lots of salad and Caesar dressing that ISN'T LITE (I'm such a rebel!) and unnaturally red apples and nothing else! And my family would hate me.
Maisie- No not yet! Hmmm...we'll have to find each other
I haven't had a date in a really long time. Maybe a couple years? Boys suck. I'm hanging out with a guy tomorrow but he's 18 and I'm 27, so hopefully I'm not giving him the wrong idea. He's cool, but it's a just friends situation.

I had a flirtation going with a guy last year, and that was super nice. He's still one of the best huggers I know. But alas, our flirtation got derailed when he met his soulmate. And I can't even begrudge him that, because the two of 'em are just so GOOD together. Dagnabbit. :3
"I've been in love with multiple gays. I still lust after one of them, actually!"
Me too, sister!"
Me three four and five! But not any more.
Emcee=that sucks! Be good to yourself and in time, you're good as new!

Hmmm...I had a similar experience, except not really. I was seeing a friend in high school, then abruptly broke up with him cuz I liked his sister. Needless to say that DID NOT go well. I really liked him as a friend but we haven't spoken since. *sigh*
But being officially single is the best because I can flirt with people I don't even like just for the fun of it (even Hairy Earlobes!), and my not-officially-boyfriend can't complain because he's not officially my boyfriend!
and now I'm with a hot drummer :)
... He IS really cute. Don't worry, I won't fly over to Maisie-land and steal him from you.
Damn tofu, that sucks. I guess it's just a teensy bit too ewww for him. Boys can be funny like that. :/
Thanks for the hug, Addy.
Jane - I'm just trying to distract myself. For now, it's working.
One of my closest friends in the entire world has been wanting to pursue a relationship for years, and I just can't do it - even something casual, friends with benefits, whatever. I'm too afraid of things getting weird, and I know they will.
LOL, thanks Weez! But you are not remotely homely, stop it! You are lovely. Besides, dudes don't care. I could look like Rumer Willis after getting hit in the face with a hammer, and because they know I'm easy, they'd still go after me. Hahaha.
luscious, go after that 18 year old! Be the hot older woman who teaches him everything he needs to know!
Justagirl, I'm not particularly cute (don't get me wrong, I'm not a hideous tentacled beast or anything, but I'm just average), but I have a lot of nerdy guy friends who think that because I've never had a boyfriend, I must be DESPERATE. Like them.
They usually get surprised when they find out that I'm not, and I'd rather not bother with dating them.

Yeah guys get weirded out over little things, while us girls seem to take things in stride. I love being friends with straight guys but sometimes they annoy me with their manly behavior. So I try to stick to girls and gay men. Mind you I'm not discriminating, sometimes I just want to be around people who don't talk about football and belching.
"I could look like Rumer Willis after getting hit in the face with a hammer"
LOL!
Emcee-distracting yourself is so smart! It's the best thing to do. And I totally can relate to trying to have a relationship with a platonic friend (is that what you meant). I even tried to have sex with this guy, and it was so weird that I jumped out of the bed right in the middle of it!
Okay, if I try to come back on here (or ANY thread) in the next hour or so, tell me to go away.
I HAVE to write a review for this play I saw yesterday and submit it, or I'll be in big trouble. And I keep putting it off. So please be the willpower that I lack, oh ladies of BWW!
Haha, that's an image.
It's all I can think to do. I'm afraid I'll run out of distractions and then actually have to confront my feelings because they aren't just going to go away, but... I don't want to be sad. And yes, a platonic friend. I almost have on several occasions but in the end I just can't. It's too weird. We grew up together.
I'm back from dinner (turkey sandwich) and off to get ready to party with the neighbors.
Emcee, sometimes the person who you are friends with makes the best partner. My husband and I were totally JUST FRIENDS for a long time before taking the next step. Seventeen years later we are still married and he is still my best friend. It's something to consider anyway...
I'm sure I'll be back on after too many drinks. Have a good night all!
Emcee, if it's meant to happen eventually, then it'll happen. My sister was just good friends with this fella for years and years and years, now they're married. They've just had their first biological child together, but I get warm fuzzies every time he refers to my sister's first child as his daughter. Truly he understands the difference between being a father and being a daddy. :3
But on the other hand, it doesn't have to happen at all! You might both wake up one day and find yourselves in the right place for it. You might just as likely continue as you have been doing. Don't ever go anywhere with it that makes you uncomfortable, but *IF* it might move on of its own volition, don't necessarily fight it either.
Awww, everyone's going out. Ah well, at least I'll be able to step away from the PC and do something else (for, like, half an hour, then it's bedtime ).
