Well at first I didn't totally agree that women don't really see sex as an equal exchange because in order to have sex with a woman generally she has to see you as valuable enough. In other words, she's not going to just have sex with any guy just for the sake of having sex. She doesn't have to. I looked at as women are always trying to take an advantage even if they aren't offering sex. But here I think you are on to something.
I suppose there is something to the fact that you have to have SOME value most of the time, because what would make her choose YOU over a dozen other options if they are readily available to her?
I agree here. I often here guys say if you lay a girl good she will always keep coming back. I think that's baloney and guys that say that don't know what they're talking about.
This brings up an interesting point.
I learned that giving a woman great orgasms is great, UNTIL she finds a better EMOTIONAL attachment, or a guy who will give her a commitment.
So it is especially true that great sex means very little when the woman knows that you won't commit to her.
As Rollo said, she might come back around in between relationships which is GREAT, but great sex alone WON'T keep a woman around.
You know a lot of times when a guy says he has a FB, what he really has is a casual relationship with unclear objectives. How often do you make it totally clear to the female that it's a FB situation and you are sleeping around. Not too often.
I agree. I have had a lot more quasi-relationships than fukk buddies. Even the 22 yr old's best friend made a comment the other day about her friend and another chick she knew I was hooking up with. She said, "You might not CLAIM them, but they were your girlfriends".
This situation is a little different. The pretense that we are "only friends" has always been there, and despite the fact that she would probably jump at the opportunity to make it into something more, she already knows that I have no interest on going that direction.
Btw, this friend isn't the AW is it Str8?
Who would have thought it would have transitioned to this after knowing her for close to a decade? I always said that I would never put any effort into it, but she ended up in my bed one night and it was a gimme, so I took it.
That is why this is going to be a once every week or two kind of thing. She's doable for being close to 40, but her age and her personality preclude her from a relationship with me.
