Platonic friendship just means the girl won't sleep with the guy.

Yep, and sometimes it also means she just won't sleep with him yet
Um, we women have been known to change our minds occasionally...

It seems to me that he was looking for something different than you. At the same time appreciating him not waisting your time, especially after realizing his efforts were not inline with yours. Had he continued to pursue you, knowing that the two of you were going in different directions, Would we be reading about him in another capacity here? Would he then be a stalker? No offense but "Dam if you do, Dam if you dont"

I have to vehemently disagree that all males want to get in all women's pants.
Most of my friends are male. My best friend is male. The opportunities have been there MANY times to have sex, but we never have. I have discussed it with each of them, and pondered it (when one or the other, or both of us, were at a time when we were free to date) and it was 100% unanimous that our friendship was too special to screw it up (no pun intended) with sex. I love these guys like I would love a brother. I tell them my woes, I cry on their shoulder and they do the same in return. And if I were in trouble, it is one of them I'd call to come bail me out.
And no, they're not "sissy men"...one is a retired cop, another an ex-Marine, and the others are all VERY manly men. Most of them are in relationships with other women, and they have all made it clear when they started dating them that I am not a threat and they won't give me up for them.
Absolutely people of the opposite sex can have relationships that do NOT revolve around sex. It just depends on the people I guess.

How come beautiful and intelligent woman always think that the man only wants a platonic relationship and those big ones always mistake a gesture of humanity, a mannerism, or a your just one of the boys kind of comaraderie as a pass!
I have heard this over and over again from attractive and bright woman and male friends and associates. Wow! Talk about inaccurate self concepts sometimes. Not to bust anyone's fantasies, but every time a guy puts his hand on a fat shoulder - no way!!!!

What you are having is a misunderstanding. You have to realize that 99.9% of the time when a woman tells a guy she only wants to be friends, it is a polite way of saying that she is not interested in him.

Ok, you can count out the 27% who are gay. You can also count out the 30% who are too old or sick to get it up or worry about women. Out of the straight males who are left only a mere 99% want in your pants. About 90% of those do not want you to think that all they want is to get into your pants.

Nothing wrong with that...after all, that's why we fit together so nicely...but if that's all that's wanted, well be honest about it, and don't fume and fuss when we say no thanks, just move on down the road till you find a woman looking for the same thing.

Wrong. Remember, there is a great game being played here by the majority of the people on the dating sites, and they number in the thousands and thousands.. They are all getting laid, male and female, but the game has to be played right. Men who are honest and say they just want a booty call are going to be answered with outrage and will NOT get laid. To respond to such a bald request would get a woman labeled as a "bad girl." But if they play the game and tell the women what she wants to hear, they will be in bed with her in no time and when he vanishes afterwards she will react with the proper anger and hurt and will be in bed with the next guy who plays the game properly and tells her what she wants to hear the following week. There are no losers in the game. Everyone gets laid and the woman can still be a "good girl" because the guy lied to her and she was tricked into putting out. I do not condone this, I am just telling the way it is, and I am right.

I can attest to the fact that they are not all getting laid...

Generalizations are always false, including this one. I've been known to go there, and did what was strictly a booty call when the guy was honest. Heck, I went 20 years without getting any and I don't need to prove a damned thing to anybody, including myself. No harm, no foul if everybody's honest.

Do you have any clue as to the exceedingly high number of bad love makers running loose in the dating pool? It's a crap shoot out there people.
A good time is NOT had by all.
By the way custis, How are you this fine evening?  you know I would never call you a perv (sober) right?

The guy wanted a chance at more then friends. By drawing a line at just friends so early his chance was snuffed out. Sure did save alot of wasted time and heartbreak though. I think it would be great if more people came out and said what they were really looking for right away.
custis, the world just isn't ready to hear the hard cold truth about how 75% of men are some sort of player. I do enjoy the reactions you get out of everyone though. I bet some of the biggest players are the guys that quickly reply that your wrong and how they are nothing like that. I left 25% of the men out so they have a safe place to hide.

I am only the messenger. I did not say I condone it, but it is truth. And yes, most are getting laid. You may not like it, but it is nonetheless true. Whether you like it or not, these dating sites are bringing one hell of a lot of people together for booty calls. You can boo and hiss till the cows come home. I am only saying it like it is. I do not have a bad attitude, I am just very observant and in fifty years of living, I have done a lot of observing, and living.

"Generalizations are always false,"
It would only be a generalization if I said it was everybody. If you go back and read, you will see that I only said the majority, and I am right.

My sweet Willowy, I was speaking ironically. Such nuances of feeling are difficult to read in these forums and they cause a lot of misunderstandings. I am fine by the way and no, I did not take the perv thing seriously. It is just good fun. I am not a thin-skinned man with a chip on his shoulder (Smooch).

Men are not evil for wanting to get laid, It is just the way things are. Everyone knows it whether they wish to acknowledge it or not. I am just the messenger. All the branches of science which study human behavior have been telling us this for many years and they are right. However, many find the truth unpleasant because it conflicts with their anglo/Christian ideals and fuzzy warm dreams. Even the men who want to get laid would also like to find their perfect one and only, at least for the most part. But they are just not willing to be monks until that time. Neither are the women, they just do not want to admit it. Thus, the game is played, and will continue to be played. Before the Inet it was played in a jillion singles bars and still is, but now the Inet makes it easier than ever to play the game.
