I think friends are soul mates you do not have a sexual relationship with, I cannot equate friendship with contractual duties like trust or being there for me, or me for them.
A friend for me is someone who I enjoy the company of, I admire trustworthy, steadfast types but it does not follow that I want to spend my unpaid hours with them.
We have to be able to trust ourselves rather than our friends, and that allows us the luxury of spending time with people we actually like, as my old dad used to say 'learn to cook and marry for love'.
I have a close r'ship with my sis, but we only see each other on holidays, where we get along real well. I cant help but think that people are thinking and saying things behind my back for my unorthodox practices.
I get along really well with my mum upto a point. But there always seems to be a stumbling block with all my r'ships, family or otherwise, where something always seems to get in the way of the potential of our r'ships coming to fruition. I would say it's their fault and if we weren't related I reckon they may hate my guts because of the values I expouse.

I am also interested in sexual r'ships. As for me I've had 2 serious ones and 2 kids. A girl and a boy. I'm rather happy about the way it all worked out. (considering I wanted to split with the first one,(first woman when the daughter was 5), like my job there was done.
(I'm going to stop here- starting to sound like a confessional)
Am I missing something, or just too old-fashioned to understand?
