Should You Be Lovers… or Friends?
While
growing up, women always meant one thing to me: girlfriend material. Women were
always potential lovers; never once did it slip into my mind that I
could be friends with them.
It wasn’t until I started racking up lovers that I felt the need to slot women into particular roles in my life. I couldn’t (and didn’t) want to sleep with every woman that came into my life, because some women ended up becoming a bigger headache than they were worth as lovers.
However, I began to realize the importance and utility that a mutual friendship could produce. High status women are excellent for social fulfillment, preselection, and they can help you get a closer look at how women act on a daily basis.
Unfortunately, I ran into quite the conundrum. I would harmlessly flirt with women, only to find myself sleeping with them and having our friendships break down. Women would seek sex from me, and I would give it to them, thinking we could still be friends afterwards.
After all, it was just sex.
As I quickly began to realize, I was ruining potential friendships and potential lovers by flipping in between definite roles. The relationships were in some weird middle of the road status, and things would become awkward in a hurry when neither of us knew how to proceed.
What was the underlying problem for me?
I wasn’t defining our relationships roles from the outset. The perpetual chaos that ensues in this situation works against producing stable relationships and causes them to break down. I lost plenty of women because of my indecisiveness, and you could too if you don’t know where each woman belongs in your life.




You
meet a really cute girl at an event or out on the street. You
know right off the bat that she’s the kind of girl who gives you
butterflies in your stomach. She smiles at you. You exchange
pleasantries. You vaguely reference how the two of you should get
together sometime. She giggles and agrees. She gives you her number and
says to contact her sometime. The two of you part ways.
