can men & women be friends if one wants more. I think I may have ended friendship this weekend because even though I see my friend all the time,and we hang out together a lot (couple times a week) she just doesnt want to take it any further. We did see each other for a while 2 years ago but when we took a trip together it just fell apart. But oddly enough, we continued to be friends and dated other people and lately spent a lot of time together. I havent met anyone I have so much in common with, were both artists and musicians and have the same warped sense of humour, Im very comfortable with her. She likes hanging out with me because we have a lot in common. I know that she is seeing someone now off and on (her words) that she says is a pompous ass but shes physically attracted to him. So I just decided to end it because I dont want to hurt myself anymore.
