Also don't fall into the friend trap either. I've got it figured out. When they dump you they say that stuff about wanting to remain friends. They only do that because they don't want a bloke to be completly cut up about the break up. We only accept out of hope that she'll see the light and get back with you. Well it always turns into a recipe for diaster. So it only works when BOTH parties have moved on

Tell us more Ian.

Wait wait wait. So the friend TRAP and the friend ZONE are two different things? I think I need help with this one Ian.

Go to your concert alone Clifton, grab the junk of the nearest man, give him the you-me-disabled toilet-now look and you'll be saying crag androtop who?

I decided to give any guy that looked at me the "not if we were the last two people on earth and I had no fingers look" instead, that made me feel better.

Yes the Friend Trap is when she's broken up with you and wants soften the blow. The friend zone or friend bin is where she's not interested in more than friendship from the get go.

Interesting Ian, very interesting. I think there might be a career for you in writing books about such things you know.

I'm not friends with any of my ex's. Either we're together or we're not, none of this "let's be friends" bullshit.

This is bad advice unless you're a little emo bitch. If you've got the etiquette down of a relationship with the ex it's no problem. You can even keep them on the friend hook. Plus, even though you've lost the battle the war isn't over. You need to go out there, make a miracle come back and win the break up. Nothing motivates like getting dumped. When life gives you aids make lemonaids :lol:

Also you've already slept with her, so you definitely have some chemistry so some casual sex down the road is always a possibility.

very true! my mate Gareth hates it and can't hold a girl friend for more than a month! coincidence? i think not.

I'm a rock climber, I have a tank grip and awesome finger strength. I have no problems opening jars.

Also I'm not an idiot, and anybody with half a brain has figured out that if you get a butter knife and use it as a lever under one of the parts of the lid that goes down lower than the rest it all but pops open, so I can even open the ones the boys can't.
