Missing..

The sad truth is men and women can't be friends. And it isn't the sex thing, if that's what you're thinking. And if you're not thinking, give it a go before you write in and rip me a new one. It's some "Men are from Mars, women are from Venus" shit. It's an outlook thing, it's a linguistics thing, it's something I can't put my motherfrigging finger on. With a relationship, which is hard enough as it is, there's the sex to bring two people closer together and there's the siege mentality, us on the inside, the rest of the world on the outside. With friendship, it's like men and women do everything differently: expectations are different, reactions are different, things that piss us off are different.

I'm not saying they can't work. Just that the odds are against them panning out long term. Or, what I'm saying is they don't work out for me. That's just MY truth. I've got a couple of friends who are girls (Carmen and Riro) and they've both withstood the test of time: no drama, easy-going and clearly defined rules bind our relationship. Everyone else is cut off and I'm not even accepting new applications. In fact, even if I'm friendly with you, until we've been friends for five years, we're not friends, just acquaintances.

It's just too much motherfucking drama.
