So what you're saying then is that a guy can only intentionally end up friends with a woman if she's ugly.
Huh.
As a general rule, when I'm interested in sleeping with a woman I make it apparent from the start. It's been my experience that doing so (in a non-creepy way) is the best route to success.
If you're a woman and I've been interacting with you for more than a week without any indication of this, you can safely assume I'm not interested in it.
There are two people in my life who might fall under the heading of 'best friend.' The first is a guy who I've known since grade school. Having been friends for that length of time has resulted in a unique bond.
The other is a young lady who most folks would agree is quite pretty, myself included. However, she's 5'11" and her weight tends to hover between 120 and 130 lbs. I like girls with curves generally, and she doesn't have a lot of those, so even though I can acknowledge that she's attractive I have no personal desire to sleep with her.
This is one example. Potential partners may be rejected for a wide variety of them. An incompatibility of personality, lifestyle choices or ideals are all things that might disqualify a woman as a partner, but not as a friend. They're all completely independent of physical appeal.
Please. If you're going to talk about attractiveness and how it relates to a male's chances of befriending a woman, avoid phrases like 'all guys.' I know it's hard to imagine, but some of us are capable of looking past a pair of tits.
