100% DISAGREE

My wife and I have been best friends for almost 20 years.

It absolutely is possible.

You just can't settle for whatever/whoever comes along.
If this comment is aimed at my post that men and women can not be just friends you prove my point, you are married. Men and women cannot just be friends, it is primal, we are designed to have sex, and have children....the only important thing you do in life. This is deep in every man and women's brain, some never figure it out and think they can friend zone, you cannot. Men and women have a relationship, or a business deal, you are never just friends, especially after sex.
 
I will bring up something.
In post #1 the op says she called it quits but would still go to HI.
We have been bashing on her but hell she did tell him before the trip.
Alot of gals would have waited till they returned.
I got to give her credit for that.

Exactly, she was straight and upfront with him. I can't believe all the advice to treat her like a piece of ****. Could be one of the reasons why this world is such a shitty place.

I believe the majority were to give the OP reason to stay away from her.
 
I believe most of the comments were made in jest. I wouldn't take them too seriously and I am sure the OP probably doesn't put much stock in opinions gathered on an internet forum from complete strangers.
 
Advertise one ticket go alone enjoy your time with your brother and family maybe meet some else there on vacation and maybe start a new relationship you never no you might me someone close to you

Gonna' have to disagree again.

While there is often a sexual tension or desire, there is also the possibility that there is not.

Do you know any women you find unattractive? Could you be friends with them?

I have been friends with several women who have not been love interests, some were quite attractive, although I admit more often than not the desire to go further was present...but not always. It is a soul searching question to decide if you value the friendship enough to cease "pursuit" if that was the intent at the onset.

Believe me, I am the poster child for the "can't we just be friends" speech, and I have sometimes responded with "I really don't need any more friends".

I have also had friendly relationships "with benefits" so to speak.
The key there is to really know who you are dealing with.
Both parties must be extremely mature and honest.

In my book love and like are not mutually exclusive.
To me, love is an extension of like.
I can not love someone if I do not like them.
 
We now have threads about how to meet gals and break up with them...who needs Dear Abby? We got it all here.
 
I think you need to change your girl finding techniques.

Oh…is the OP still pining? I was always a ***** sort, few women (there were some not) that I hadn’t had a fleeting thought of boinking. Some I did when I was still cute. Didn’t matter the setting, the conference room, her office, mine, grocery store, bar, etc. I’m too old now to draw any attraction from any women under 60, so I realize that urge has become an impossibility to occur. Is this helpful? I think so…it takes some time to get used to though. Sorry OP...I'm sure this is not helpful.
Hope you're doing well.

Hookers don't care about how old you are.. They just want the money. So there is still that for ya. :thumbsup:

Lol, I’ve always had some mind block going to strip joints for bachelor parties or when the guys I’ve been with want to go. Found going into these places depressing as hell and same thinking about buying a hooker. Da bone is non-existent. Now I have to get my right hand drunk dousing it with beer…ahh joke I heard about getting your ‘date’ drunk before sex…as for this actually working..................sorry this is classified info.

Used to have some success in being a bit high or have had a few beers but seems the women weren't too responsive after a few at least not in the right way. They were either goofy with laughter or getting sick. And no, they weren't laughing at anything about me! They were usually laughing well before the clothing came off. Man, that was 40 years ago lol

There is hope and a lot of women with "Daddy" issues.

Actually we can. But won't last. Not because of "Primal instinct." But because it will get in the way of other relationships you will both have? Or eventually have. My best friend was female. But she got a boyfriend that was VERY suspicious of me. And when I met a gal. She was even worse with her. So now? Far more distant friends.
 
Yeah - I had a close bud who started dating a gal I broke up with and they eventually got married. It seemed awkward, more to them I guess than with me. She was one piece of work hey, lol. Could be real moody like a personality disorder, IMO...and ahh...she liked to inflict pain during sex. Didn't mind that too much; but **** it could be weird on occasion getting me pissed...if I want my balls flattened lemme find a bench vice and will do it myself. Great looking blonde I was attracted to since 8th grade and we started dating junior year HS. Great curves. Well go friggin figure...that marriage lasted around 3 years before they split. I heard she lives around where I do and likely wouldn't recognize her anyway after 40 years. As for my old bud? No clue he's been missing since around 1980 as I've had mutual HS friends try to connect with him to no luck...
 
well, I could save face a bit and tell yall that I didn't take her to Hawaii. But, that's not what happened. I took her. We had a fantastic time. I have no regrets.
Since we've gotten back, she has been wonderful. She treated us to a trip to Austin for the Alanis concert. She bought us tickets to Wicked, complete with a fancy dinner in Dallas. She has tickets for Guns n Roses...her treat. She has even booked us a week long sailing trip in March in the Bahamas.
She wants to keep me in her life, and understands that our financial contribution needs to be somewhat equal. But, she wants to date younger guys and wants me to date others as well.
The result so far; she has discovered that the younger guys don't give her the same quality attention that I do. She often tells me how much more she appreciates and values what we have. For me, I've gone out with several beautiful 45-55 year old women. They are great women, but seem to enjoy being pursued and courted more than anything. The time and effort that they require is ridiculous. But perhaps it's me and I'm not ready to date others.
For now, I will enjoy my young friend, while occasionally dating some more mature women. Who knows.....perhaps I'm still just an idiot.
AND....the Kona manta ray dive was spectacular. Highly recommend !!!!

problem #1- if she actually listens to alanis morsette's lyrics....whew

interesting take- I personally found slightly older women to be much less interested in playing the game, and more focused on getting down to business.
