Intense Intellectual Experiences

Today I ha the day off, so I went and saw a friend of mine (yes just a friend), any who through put the day we spoke of many things; the past and how we've grown because of the experiences we've gone through,
The present being what each of us hoped to achieve and things that still effect us every day.

We spoke of politics and legality, comedy and tragedy and continued on this way.

My friend is very dear to me, to be able to hold a conversation for the entire day about anything and everything was absolutely delightful (as his company always is)

Is there someone that you can flex your intelligence with, someone that understands your humor and delights in debates?

The poor bugger sounds like he's in the dreaded friendship zone.

I did! Till recently. A friend in work. We spoke/texted/emailed every day. It was awesome for years. We told each other everything. She even knew about my punting... and she was supportive/cool about it.
But then she admitted she was... kind of in love with me. I didn't/don't feel the same way (and I feel strangely guilty!). My brain never even entertained the idea because she's engaged with her long term partner. Anyway we moved on from that but it was never the same. In more recent times I think she was constantly looking for argument... and constantly in need of attention. I had enough and called it quits.

Col we're both in happily committed relationships, and it's nice to have a friend of the opposite gender that there is no awkward or sexual feelings towards, it was something we talked about and it's a mutual friendship and that's all either of us want.

Also the whole friend zone thing is a load of crap, seriously if you like a girl and you don't tell her but just be nice to her she isn't going to fall in love with you and beg for you to consummate your love -.-" if you're in love with a lady friend or a man friend tell them, if they say no then fair enough they're obviously not into you the way you are into them. It happens to both men and women and friend zone is just an excuse to berate and belittle someone for turning down a relationship that they aren't interested or emotionally invested in.


Also my apologies for my ridiculous spelling on the original post I will be correcting that later today at work (A. I'm currently on my phone so keypad is touchy and B. I was half asleep, my spelling and grammar is much better than that)

Ummm! If you say so.
Can't say that I've met a woman that I just wanted to be friends with.

Fair enough but not all men are like you.
On another note if you had a partner that you are completely in love with, the rest of the opposite gender for some become people and not sexual conquests

The women I've known would make crappy friends. I'd put up with their BS if I was getting something but not otherwise.

Sure a great friend is good to have... Doesn't matter about gender.

I'd definitely agree, I don't even find W/L's sexual conquests, sex is just a fringe benefit to what is otherwise individual and unique relationships with some very special people and it's importance within each varies based on the type of relationship we have.

Try telling that to your partner who was jealous and super suspicious of your every move and intentions.

He isn't like that, plus I tell him everything anyway, and my friend chats to him as well, just like I chat to my friend's other half. She's wonderful

I'm guessing he knows where you work then.

Yep He knows, I told Him the day I went for the interview and He was the first person I told when I got the job.

He doesn't have a problem with it. I like being admin/reception :)
