Lines: 14 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Line Eater, What Line Eater? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I too have wondered why it is that one could not be friends and be intimate at the same time. Especially with this one woman friend of mine. She claims that 'it' would spoil our loooong time friend-type relationship. That's the only answer that I can get out of her. It could be that she is happily married etc. I suspect though that her reason goes back to the fact that there is a basic difference in how women (read more than 50% of women) hold sexual encounters in a relationship versus the way that men can. Women-- tell us like it is! Byefornowbutnotforever pmbs~~~> ~~~> ~~> ~~> ~> ~>
