Why is that whenever you tell a guy you aren't looking for a man they suddenly ask to be your friend?

Because, in the hopes that you will change your mind in the future, they want to be there to pounce. \n\nYou asked.

I do not know what you are talking about. If a man tries to talk to you and you tell them that you are involved or not interested, you become a snob. Sometimes womwn are just not interested!!

Just ask because when you blew him off, he probably thought you weren't interested.  Thus, he wouldn't ask again because he doesn't want to come on a creepy guy.

A lot of people say that. I say it all the time. When I say it it usually means I'm confused and I need some time to think. Well if he's keeping you a secret maybe he's not man enough to admit that he likes you or something. If his friend has a crush on you and he wants to take a break maybe he doesn't want his friend to find out about you two.

well you weren't supposed to date the guys friend.  that's a no no.  now if he asks you out it'll be a miracle.

You shouldn't have to ask this question.  With men, it's blatantly obvious if they like you.

DO NOT have a friend ask. It leads to trouble. They get mad and they wonder why you didn't ask yourself. Happened to me. Ask him if he says no shake it off. If you're good friend just ask him. Goodluck

sounds like he does like you. usually if someone is asking that and they are not your friend yet then that means they are interested...\n\nor they are finding out for someone else but that rarely happens with guys

his actions are not those of a friend. Friends don't lead each other on or use each other. They don't kiss or any more so let him go before he puts you down even more. You've learnt and now you're free again to meet the real guy that's out there for you. You don't need friends that lie. What a pig!

Well, the fact that the guy hasn't responded can be either good or bad. It could mean he's trying to figure it all out and decide when he should make his move or it could mean he's ignoring your friend. Your friend should give it time and if the guy seems to be doing nothing, well, then he isn't worth the time and effort and quite frankly doesn't deserve any girl.

Men & women can be friends. Just be careful not to let it go any further than that. Eg. I am friends with my male colleagues at work, but I make sure I get to know their wifes or GFs as well so they do not get the wrong ideas - aka they need to know I am not a threat. And I never put out wrong signals with colleagues - some may hint at something more but I always made it clear where I stand. If I am not interested, I am not interested period - particularly in married or men who are already with someone else.\nAs to why it does happen? Well, men tend to think of sex most times (read relationship books - it is a primal thing with them). They find opportunities for it to happen and at times end up jeopardising real friendships cos of it. If a guy friend pushes it, I let the friendship go. Maybe that's why folks say plutonic friendships are not workable. But I have good male friends who are absolutely faithful to their spouses so I am glad to know that such men, however rare, still exist. I for one would want my man to be exactly that - faithful to me and only me and I would be the same for him too.

Heck no.  In this day and age women DO ask out men they are interested in. Also, if you don't let a man know that you are interested he may be too shy to ask you out.  Let him know how you feel - ask him out. But you have to understand that in asking a man out you may face disappointment if he says no.  If that happens just accept it and move on.

It is very important for a girl to have a male friend who is just a friend. Girls are rarely good in friendship. They tell your secrets to everyone, they may forgive about friendship etc. That is why guy friends are so treasured. I had such a friend and although I understood 100% that he is interested in me more than a friend I made myself believe that we are just friends. He could even stay for a night in my house, sleep on a couch in my room etc. But then he had a promotion to a different country and proposed to me (and we didn't even kiss). Of course I denied ;(.

They're trying to get the info for the guy. He obviously likes you but is afraid to talk to you himself, so he's sending his friends to find out more about you.

I don't know why he dropped the friendship, but you are acting kind of needy--almost stalking like.  take a hint, for whatever reason, he does not want to associate with you.....let it go.

As they say ,,,,Men come and go , but a friend is hard to find. I wouldn't risk my Friendship over no man. To many men,,,not enough true friends,,so if you have a true friend,,choose the friend, and in my eye,s if she is a true friend and you told her how you feel about him, and why you wont date him, for fear it may cause friction between you and her, if she is a true friend,,,,,she will stay away from him also, out of respect for you!~

Oh yeah. That guy absolutely is head over heels for the girl normally. Too bad he's in the friend zone. I pity those guys more than any other man on the planet since they are so incredibly close to what they want and they will never get it. Its kind of like a homeless person that owns an unbreakable box with $1000 in it. The person wants that money more than anything, but they have no way to get to it. The plight of the "male friend" is truly one of the saddest in the history of humankind.\n\nWhich is why I don't make female friends anymore.
