Guys and Dolls

I've always heard that a guy can't be best friends without a girl. That there are ulterior motives, that he is just trying to get in her pants, trying to get with her, what have you. While this may not hold true for every guy, I honestly believe that for a majority of guys, the reason you become close with a girl is to 1) try to date her, or 2) try to fuck her. Now, there is some middle ground here and you can end up becoming close with someone without satisfying either of those criteria.

I can only speak from experience, but every time I've ever been close to a girl, it was because we either dated, I had feelings for her, or there was something more carnal going on there. I naturally get along better with girls for some strange reason, but I'm not overly feminine or desperate. Maybe it's just me, maybe I just have a problem. Every time I become interested in a girl I'm immediately relegated to the friend zone, save for one time. We won't go into that. Now, I've talked to my share of girls, but the ones I truly find interesting and worth my time either 1) don't have the time for me or 2) already have someone waiting out in the wings. This is when i curse my bad luck and just suck it up.

One day I'm going to figure this whole dating thing out, and hopefully I can have close female friends that I don't want to date or fuck. Not that there is anything wrong with that, because I hang out with some pretty good looking ladies. The one time that it actually worked out for me, it ended up being a beautiful disaster. But like I said earlier, we won't go into that.

That's a story for another day.
