I just posted a lengthy response to a question about guys ghosting when they ask a friend for a date and get rejected. You are probably familiar with that tired line, "but I don't want to take a chance on ruining our friendship." That resulted in the ghosting that motivated the Asker to post the question.
1. After you reject him, that friendship probably is ruined anyway, because not many guys will want to hang around and watch you dating other guys after they got rejected. So that old line doesn't have much meaning.
2. HOW MANY TIMES have you heard a girl say, "I want my romantic partner to be my best friend." Well, if that's what you REALLY want, why wouldn't you date a friend? You're already halfway to your goal.
So. . . would you date a friend if he or she expressed interest? If you felt some attraction?
