Just Friends

So i just got done watching the movie "just friends". started watching some of the behind the scenes shit and i am racking my brain to find a girl that i was "just friends" with, that i didn't end up screwing. i couldn't think of one. i mean, any girl i ever entered the "friend bubble" and i wanted more than that... i got it. sure, i've been fortunate in that respect. i mean, usually if i ended up in the "friend bubble" or "friend zone" it was a cold calculated move to get me some. and it has nary backfired. so here is my question, to women: do you honestly have no clue what you're doing to us when you put us in the "friend bubble/zone"? i mean, really, are we as males that clandestine as to our wants and needs? yeah, i thought we were pretty obvious too. and guys... expose your inner pussy, tell us about being stuck in the "friend bubble". just for sharing's sake, i figure i'll help out. the closest to an unfulfilled "friend bubble" was my friend jeanie. she had a crush on me in like 8th grade. but then, she got hot. but i didn't actually see or hang out with her for around 4 years. we were more "phone" friends than anything. i knew when she lost her v-card and when she had sex in a lake, and eventually when she had to her face reconstructed due to an asshole ex. but i was never mad about her, wanting her constantly. so i don't know if it counts. of course there's naked beth. her and i were great friends for a short time. lot's of drunkenness and debauchery, and nudity and drunkenness and quality time spent together. but no sex. i was still delusional about an ex at the time, and couldn't bring myself to "cheat" on an ex girlfriend. yes, she was an ex at the time. i know. big pussy. trust me, i don't make those mistakes anymore. w00t! so there ya go. now, tell me stories. please. post anon if you want. i could care less. i just want stories.

I want stories, too! I'm not friends with guys. Definitely not friends with exes. Too much tension.

Heidi said...

Hmmm... I actually think I am going to post a whole entry about this. I have too much to say for here. So check there for your answer and some stories.

Rev said...

wait, you're hard pressed to think of a girl that you're "just friends" with?

Are you trying to say that there isn't a girl that you know that you haven't slept with?

Cause I can think of a few...

Drunken Chud said...

i wholly understand kristin. but you've NEVER had guy that clearly wanted you but you kept him as just a friend?

heidi, thanks for playing along. glad i could provide a topic for you.

rev... did you fail reading comprehension? cuz i said nothing of the sort.

laurie, i too walked into blockbuster around 1140. however ours close at midnight. i almost had to cut someone to get the last copy. but, i didn't. i think they saw the bloodlust and backed off.

I had a male friend who was convinced I was keeping him in the "friend bubble" just to keep him around. When I broke up with my asshole ex he tried to pursue me very actively. I honestly didn't want him in "that way." And come on---you can't pursue a girl who just got out of a psychotic relationship and expect major romantic sparks. That shit just doesn't happen! Anyway, when I told him that it caused a huge fight and we didn't talk for about two years. Of course now we're great friends. It turns out he just needed to get laid...and even though it wasn't by me, I think him getting laid saved the friendship. So my advice to girls who have a guy who wants them is to get that guy friend hooked on another girl. Buy him a hooker, fix him up, something.

Drunken Chud said...

so laurie, had he decided to man up and make a move that weekend, would you have shot him down? i mean, from the sounds of it... you were open to the possibility.

I'm Scooter, but I might be a troll. said...

Chud, uh... I think you know my story. Any ways, Elizabeth is my sister. My 19 year old, hot sister. I say this with total sincerity, touch her and die a slow, painful, shameful death.

I mean it man, I will build a Chud oubliette.

Drunken Chud said...

wait you have a hot sister? does she like fat guys?

Steph said...

I'm in two minds about the friend bubble. I DO have some male friends, but i've known them forever, or they're gay, so that doesn't count.

I find if I like a guy, i start to think sexual thoughts about them. I can't help it!!! Doesn't mean I'll act on it, but i can't control my lustful thoughts. :P

Rev said...

I am the KING of being "just friends"

And godDAMN it sucks

I WANTED to be in the friend bubble with one girl and struggled for a while. We got along amazingly well and she was stunning so I, naturally, fell hopelessly for her even though I was CONVINCED that we weren't right for each other (which we weren't, I guess).

Got over it though. We're friends now and I don't want to ever leave that bubble again.

Stepho said...

I was pretty oblivious to the whole thing. As soon as I found out HE thought I was doing it, I tried to talk about it and we fought and ended up not speaking for two years. Apparently he'd have rather stayed in the zone.

trueborn said...

Unfortunately I too flirt with as many girls as possible, and am friends with just as many.

Just friends for men is a hard thing to do.

Most times there are motives involved. But then, women are no different in this regard.

My buddy was just friends with another chica while he was seeing his girlfriend. Once they broke it off, this chica was on him like white on rice.

Stickler said...

I hooked up with a friend of mine once in kind of a drunken hysteria. It started with a challenge by her. She basically told me that we never would, ever! So I threw her ontop of a juke box at a bar and made out with her. Ended up back at her place. As she took off all of her clothes I looked at her, ran in the bathroom, and puked everywhere. All I can say is, I am no longer friends with this girl. Que sera sera!

Drunken Chud said...

steph, see, even if you've known them forever, who's to say they don't secretly want you? hmmm?

well, rev... yeah...

see, aubs, that out of context. in my statement of, "..any girl i ever entered the "friend bubble" and i wanted more than that... i got it." is really the qualifier for that remark. and i mean, duh, of course i'm trying to charm all online friends so that on the off chance i meet them in person they fall all over my "husky" body.

and thanks for the tag hon. i WILL get to it. i promise.

wait, jobe... you WANTED into the friend bubble? well... i guess that's good.

stepho, we men are odd like that. we suck actually.

you know true, it's true. like i had said above to aubs, i have had motives. and in fact it's been difficult at times when you both have motives, and are both dating each others friends. that leads to a bad place. pretty quickly.

stickler, please tell me it was the booze that made you puke and not her naked body. cuz if it was her body, i'd have to question if the jukebox survived the ordeal.

Ben said...

Why fuck up the friendship for something that wouldn't last if it happened?

Why... that's just silly!

I should mention I wasn't out of the bubble really. The chances were there but we took control of our urges.

Drunken Chud said...

you know jobe, if that's the case that you honestly knew it wouldn't work between the two of you, then good on ya.

Drunken Chud said...

hehehehehehe. i think she was answering my hypothetical aubs. when i asked IF the guy would have tried, WOULD she have.

Stickler said...

Chud, It was from drunkeness but I'm sure she thought otherwise.

Jobe, the reason you mess up the friendship is because you grow some balls and take a chance. If you don't you could miss out on something so much better. The old adage goes, "It is better to have loved and loss, then to have never loved at all!"

I feel this could can be applied to sex as well by just changing some key words!

Ben said...

Possibly. But I was 100% certain there was nothing there.

It probably wouldn't have fucked up the friendship if we did that, but nothing would have come out of it and I didn't really want something quick from her (or long for that matter).

Drunken Chud said...

stick, well, at least you have the truth.

jobe. good on ya. good on ya.

Beakerz said...

definately one stupid movie it would appear.

Is it even worth watching on HBO?
