      I helped a male friend move last week. There were 3 guys and one me. I was the only one with a driver's license so I drove the van, also I was by far the best at figuring out how to build the IKEA furniture. Bonus points for being good at picking colours :p

      You wouldn’t want to be friends with her even if she wasn’t hot. Wanna know why I know? Because it’s biology and men only think with their dick. Why would they waste time on a chick who is already disqualified to have sex with? Yeah

      Because if the guys would say "yes", then they aren't platonic friends, even if you are their platonic friend. The point is that girls can usually be platonic friends, but guys almost never can, and that's something many women seem to be in denial about.
