Having read through this whole thread, you've gotten lots of good advice and I think you already know what to do so no need for me to add anything.
Does this mean I have to keep my hands to myself when you visit? | |

I'm so naive. I kinda started an online friendship with a woman, feeling cool with developing it because (a) I had no desire to sleep with her, and (b) because she's a nurse. I mean, she looked sensible, level-headed etc. I just don't have a lot of friends here and sometimes feel like I'd like to make some. I tend to prefer the company of women. It's not always easy, it seems. | |

I had a mild crush, like any number I've had, like the one I had on my boss, which didn't stop me from turning up to work everyday. | |

ZombieKitten said: thinks we are going to get it on if we meet up
I just want to see what he's up to, talk, since we used to have a great time talking! (cause I am a ninja bitch and have a guy harem for intellectual purposes) But I really think he wants to BUT he also used that word "mate" which usually is how the aussie male differentiates you from a potential bonking partner, except this guy is from Arizona and probably doesn't realise that I think it means we can't just have a coffee, worst luck. Anyway, I guess my thread is less me asking you all for permission to go on a NOT DATE, but more a lament that it is not the done thing, and that doing so makes it OK for all to assume (the guy, most of the thread-respondents on this thread) it was going to be a hook-up. Everyone assumes a married woman meeting a guy IS has to be for sex, because there can simply be no other reason why they might meet, can there? | |

I lament as well, with others on this thread, that it's hard to be friends with the opposite sex sometimes. I have always enjoyed hanging out with guys, just as friends and as I get older it becomes more of a no-no. ![]() | |

ZombieKitten said: Serious said: It does not work every time. But if the guy likes you as a person there is a chance that he will be interested in being friends with you even if there is no sex involved. no chance then, this guy probably couldn't care less who I am unless I boffed him Well, then definitely don't go. If someone doesn't even like you as a person or care about who you are, then why waste time even knowing them at all?

If you really want to see your old crush but don't want to have sex with him or give the impression that you might consider it, why don't you meet up casually during the day or preferably on a weekend afternoon at a public place like a mall or something and if possible, bring the kids along. That would send the old crush a clear signal that he can;t expect to hook up with you that easily (though he may email or text you to meet up later). BTW, my best friend called me earlier and told me about how she went out to a club with her girlfriends and had a number of married men hitting on her. | |
