Being friends with women, you get to meet their friends and a solid reference already. Doesn't mean you can NEVER go further. Or that you have to sleep with every woman you meet, or they are worthless. Have friends that are strippers and club girls, I meet their friends all the time.
People's black and white thinking always surprises me.
would admit that all my friends are attractive, and always very attractive to me, and I am sure this is mutual, but sometimes the sexual chemistry isn't right, sometimes the personalities aren't a match, I know a few that are bad, and like me, but I can already see it being a headache, because they are invested in commitment, or whatever. Sometimes it happens later.
totally understand what he is saying with "platonic" friends to a degree.
