I have a Female friend and we have been friends for 2 years. we go out all of the time we call each other like crazy and we are there for each otht we are still just close friends but, we both get jealous when we are approached by other people. i took a mutual female friend home is her request and the next day and i never heard the end of it. so she countered by allowing another man to to escort her i was deeply hurt ! are we more than just friends.

Me personally once you place in the friends zone there is no turning back really. Also if you do get lucky to turn your female friend into a lover you're going to lose everything down the line friendship if both of you have a fall out its not worth. Keep the friends and lovers separate.

You can be lover and be friends. It really all depends on the people involved. I have male friends that I have been friends with and slept with and realized it would not work out. So friendship was to valuable to loose. So friends can happen. You have to opend minded about. Somestime you have to get that sexual tension out of the way. When you both find out your not compadable that way the friendship can end up awesome. On the flip side some people build a friendship in the begining know that having sex would destroy the freindship. Like I said it all depends on the people involved. Mytigress89@yahoo.com

Dave Matthews thinks it's a good idea to be lovers for a night and then go back to being friends. I don't know if that's even possible, Dave.

Hi Tom,
Speaking from a woman' s point of view, and only from this woman's point of view, it would be very difficult to sleep with a friend and then go back to friends as usual. I speak from experience here on this subject. But not all women feel the same about such things. So again this is only my point of view here.
