What that means is there is no absolute when it comes to attractiveness. Everyone has their own concepts of what is and isn't attractive. Friendship does not have a single damn thing to do with attractiveness. Romantic interest, friendship, and sexual attraction are three separate categories. Not different branches on the same tree. The way you explain it seems like.a "capital F" Friendship that is untarnished by outside factors. In certain situations that can happen but I would feel fake acting as if I'm not a sexual being for the sake of a friendship. I also disagree that all of those things are separate. Ideally friendship, romance, and sex would come from the same person. Attraction plays a factor in everything, like it or not. We can isolate these factors in different contrived activities but the imbalance and toxic manifestation of sex in environments that are not supposed to be sexual is a hot topic. Also, why are you condescending? Cut that shit out. --- http://www.lukesurl.com/comics/2010-02-24-determinism.png <cite>berlyman101 posted [p:942383546] in It's possi...
