Does he really mean a platonic friendship or fwb or friends with possibility of dating?
I met a guy at a party who said I looked like I would be a good friend, but he looked kind of creepy and wanted to dance with me and get my number. He was my friends uncle so it was too weird for me.
And another guy I met from a friend added me on fb and asked if I was dating anyone. His fb said he was in a relationship so I thought it was weird. He then told me it was because he had stalkers. I'm like yeah, right. When I told him I wasn't interested, he said he still wanted to be friends. Of course, I got suspicious.
And this last guy I dated said we'd be friends, but he started putting the moves on me even after we broke up and I was really trying to be a friend, but saw what he meant when he said "friend".
So now I'm kind of weary when a guy says he wants to be friends. I guess if a guy really wanted to be friends, we would just be friends without that whole "conversation" huh?
When I say "friend" I really mean friend, not FWB. If she wants FWB, I may be open to that, but I will not try to move things in that direction. That's what I do, but that's probably not what most mean.

Here's a rule of thumb that will rarely fail you in life. Men almost NEVER go out of their way to befriend women unless they have a romantic and/or sexual motive. Almost never. If a man puts serious effort into becoming your "friend," the odds are about 99% he is interested in more than friendship.

The first guy wanted to date you but was too chicken to risk rejection, so he tried to sneak in the "friendship" back door (which NEVER works guys out there). The second guy was a cheater or will be a cheater and wants to feed his ego by getting attention from women even though he's in a relationship. The ex-bf meant "I still want to have sex with you, but without the obligations of a relationship".

Agreed. Married, single, dating. Doesn't matter. Gay men are your only safe bet.
How to tell: They give you the up down check out so pay attention.
But when a woman tells a man she wants to be friends, that's what she really means right? How would guys see that?
