Does this ever work? I've had several close friends that are attractive women, but all we've ever been is friends, but if you hang out with them long enough, it is almost like that feeling is going to be there of more than friends. This has been a rough situation for me for several years now, especially with one close girlfriend of mine.
My philosophy on dating has always been get to know the girl first, then date, then get serious if you like her as a friend and more. I always wanted my girlfriend/wife whatever to be one of my best friends as well.
Why is it so damn complicated? Ha Ha!
