"The woman I'm eventually going to engage in an emotional affair behind your back with"
"The woman who I couldn't have, so I had to settle for you instead (and will constantly belittle you via comparisons to in an attempt to mold you into a replica of her that I will eventually come to resent for not being the original version)"
Also don't fuck with him if he has a "work wife".
I don't bother with male friends anymore because every single male "friend" that I ever had just wanted to get inside my pants. I've come to realise that most men are not interested in platonic friendships with women so if a man has one or more "close female friends", I consider it a massive red flag and I get the hell away.
Very well put.
A man who refuses to give up a female best friend is damaged goods. He is not emotionally clean enough to be an HVM. Emotionally speaking, he is carrying another woman’s STDs.
Leave them to each other.
It's true I wouldn't want to get involved with a guy who has a weirdly close "friendship" with another woman. At the same time, if a guy can manage to be friends with women without trying to fuck them, that would be a plus. Would show he has the ability to relate to women as human beings, not just fuck objects.
That's a big "if", of course.
