[QUOTE="Dark Jezter, post: 2891973, member: 1015"] I'm going to repeat a line that Teflon Billy posted on this very subject a couple of years ago: [b]A friendship where one "friend" has unrequited romantic designs on the other is not a friendship; it's a recipe for disaster.[/b] Unknown Soul, if you've let this woman know that you have romantic feelings for her and she's given you the "let's just be friends" bit, then you need to distance yourself from her and try to find someone else. This is gonna sound harsh, but when a woman tells a man that she likes him as a friend, she's telling him one of two things: "I like using you as somebody I can complain about my problems to, but I would never consider sleeping with you" or "I'll keep you around as somebody I can settle for in case I can't find somebody better." Women seem to have a type of mental barrier between "friend" and "boyfriend", and it's [i]very[/i] difficult for a guy to make the transition from friend to boyfriend. So get out there, date other women, and enjoy yourself instead of pining over Kay. If you and Kay are meant to be together, then it's up to her to make the next move; you've already done everything you can. [/QUOTE]
