I used to find myself attracted to people and being their friends, I just got the sex thing out of the way as soon as decently possible. Afterwards, the sex thing just sort of tailed off, and we stayed friends. Still got lots of men friends now, many of them former boyfriends. It's amazing how soon you can go off it, when it's always there for you. Spending such intimate time together means that you get to trust each other more than say maybe a girlfriend or less physically attractive bloke. Once you have parted in mutual amity, it's easier to pick up the friendship and turn it into a meaningful and useful relationship. It is difficult if the lust dies in one before the other, but it's workable.Oh, and I don't try it with my gay friends, we just end up fancying the same blokes!!!!
