Obviously I'm not that delusional that I think men are robots and of course sometimes they want more but I think once they know they're not getting any they move on! lol
Just like MOST of the time women want something more. (It deffo applies for both-women can also be in friendships coz they want more too.)
I answered either.
This is because friendships with men and women are different. They both have different pro's (and con's). You use their friendships for different things (not like that before anyone makes stupid comments lol  )

Well, I guess it depends on the individual/s, can't generalise either way. Its usually a certain breed of boyfriend that tries convincing you that every male friend you have is in it because they want to get in your hoo haas, for the purposes of warding you off them. I gave it alot of thought a while back, and discussed it with a male compadre, & came to the conclusion that whilst its probably true (in many, not all cases) that they would if they could, that isn't always the sole or major reason for the friendship. & as you get older & develop more mature friendships/work relationships etc obviously things change.
But even so, i'd rather be 100% comfortable I could sleep in a bed with someone & mess around naked if I wanted safe in the knowledge they weren't thinking/trying anything ditty. NOT that all men would, just with a best mate i'd rather not have to keep barriers up.
So I guess this includes gay men.
I do envy thyne rose tinted spectacles sonzo.
