Find physically attractive, yes. Romantic feelings, no.eatpolerepeat wrote: »Kashmir_314_ wrote: »Ladies and gentlemen,

In my experience, no. It's never turned out well. Unless it's an f buddy, but then is that actual romantic feelings or just lust 🤷♀️
I never mix romantic feelings with a f buddy. It's a recipe for disaster and why so many people say f buddies don't work. Boundaries - physical, emotional, mental - are key.1 -

It really all depends. I have one freind that I always had feelings for since I was 14 and at that time I'd get crazy jealous. Over the years and coming to the conclusion that he didn't feel the same I stopped feeling jealous but still had romantic feelings. 🤷🏻♀️ So it's possible but I agree unlikely. Maybe it worked because he never opened that door for things to get complicated.
I think if both are mutually interested it might be impossible in the long run.1 -

I'm a bit jealous - I find it really hard to develop romantic feelings. I really want a full relationship, but... the vulnerability. Your ability is powerful in relationships.3 -

I find both equally annoying and loathsome, but seeing as how I get more unsolicited d* pics than unsolicited advice, I'll go with the d* pics.
Your eggplant isn't as cute or sexy as you think it is.

Are you more open with your friends or your lovers? With whom do you share more of your heart? With whom are you more honest?
Neither. I have been burned so many times by both friends and lovers that I keep my secrets. I no longer open up to others outside of stories others know or that I hold no negative emotions or personal hangups over.3 -

No. It NEVER works. And I say that from MULTIPLE failed attempts. Better to decide which you want: a friend, or a potential romantic partner. Something in the dynamic ultimately changes at some point and either one or both of the people involved get fed up.3 -

Brene Brown is slowly working on me. I'm able to recognize the strength in others, but struggle to develop that it in myself.1 -

If I can wear dumb stuff like this with no shame, then any woman can wear super baggy pants that may or may not act like a parachute and carry her away on a windy day.
My "baggy pants" are akin to the baggy fabric pants you see pirate types wearing at Renaissance festivals.

No. I much prefer life now with less of both than when I was more conventionally attractive (IE. thinner, younger) and got both ALL THE *kitten* TIME. And that was even in the days when cellphones weren't prevalent and photos took a ton of data to send.1 -

Did you see them modeled on the Disco video? Some of those looked fun but if you tell anyone I said that I'm gonna lie through my teeth.2 -

oohohhh, wookinpanub 🎶
I can't just be friends with someone I find truly and terrifically attractive. Either we are going places or I'm going to stop going the places I see them.
Eff buddies are just a bad idea all the long way around.1 -

Similar for me. I have a line... things/topics on the safe side of that line I'll discuss with anyone (assuming I can stand being around them long enough to have the conversation). Subjects on the wrong side of that line I don't typically discuss with anyone.2 -

Would that adoration not cause feelings to flourish anyway? I feel like there’s really no win with a “in it for the fun” arrangement, but that’s just me. My downfall has always been being too sensitive.2
