To OP:

Stop being delusional. Those women do NOT want to sleep with you.

if you can't be friends with the opposite sex while your in a relationship it means you guys have trust issues, got some friends with the same problem. If you can just be content with the fact that you guys are only seeing each other then its easy to be friends with multiple women. If you have problems containing yourself then maybe relationships arent for you.

If you aren't worried about your self control ever....then it isn't a problem? I don't understand the OP.

Just the fact that you actually worry about stuff like that, when you say yourself that you are faithful to your gf makes it like you want a valid reason to cheat on her. I do not know if you are looking for such a reason but if that is the case, I suggest you jerk off until your dick is bleeding, and the thought about sex makes your dick hurt, or leave you gf.

You could also just pull yourself together, but since other people already suggested that I will not be talking about that.

I dont understand the OP's problem either. I mean, if you want your gf, stay away from the other girls. If you want the other girls, stay away from you gf. Dont try to convince yourself that finding a median between both is a solution. It's not.

True, men tend to sexualize their environment and interaction.

I personally gradually got rid of girls I used to talk with, after sealing the deal with my girlfriend. I love her, and the easiest way to avoid being a hypocrite to her is to not put me into such situations. I still talk with a few, but I dropped all the 1 on 1 relationships I could've had before.

I believe that women actually do the reverse, which is why they can have "best friends" who want to have sex with them. They're able to overlook the sexual desires of their friend and cuddle without second thoughts.

Men, on the other hand, will interpretate a look in the eye as "she wants the cock" even though it simply was a look in the eye.

I'm having this same problem, sort of -- I'm coming out of depression & withdrawal so once I can feel happiness again I think being with my gal will be phenomenal. I'm realizing its more about cultivating such a great relationship with your girl that, yeah, they're hot and you could do it, but why would you give up your girl? It's when she's worth so much more to you that others pale. If you've tried and tried and it isn't working, then be honest. But you have to give your relationship 100% and know that you did before you can honestly deal with this.

LDR's are hard, man. You gotta figure out a way to consistently use up all that energy or it will tear you apart

actually ive got a gal coming over tonight to play cod with before my gf arrives drunk or w/e. I could imagine sleeping with her, maybe, but it honestly would make me sick. I'm noticing a deviation to this same feeling with other women slowly.

for me, I just needed/need to meet more girls & keep not fapping. I'd stop objectifying, see shit for what it is, and once you've gotten in control of your sexuality the energy can be diverted anywhere you choose. I think your mind is weak at saying no because you don't do it many other places in your life and that's what is really scaring you. You wonder if when you come up to the cliff, you'll take the wrong plunge. Just gotta find other cliffs to walk up to, look over, and even if you like what you see walk away so you know you can. then you're good to go

I disagree with the notion that you should avoid letting feelings develop. Imo, a crush without a possible outlet, is an awesome foundation for a friendship. Crushes don't last forever, but you end up looking at the person from the nicest possible angle. Sure, sometimes you'll be a little torn, but imo, the best way to live life isn't trying to find the path of least resistance. Don't be afraid to love because you're afraid to be hurt.


This is kind of dangerous (from experience). I got really close to a girl during last year and she had a boyfriend. I knew I should have kept my distance, but we had this ridiculously strong bond that I thought would develop into something more. Long story short, we end up sleeping together, I wanted to pursue a relationship, she said we were just friends, and I ended up being completely torn asunder as I had invested so much into that relationship.

I mean, it was worth it from her point of view - she got what she wanted and had a relationship to fall back on. From my position, it really really sucked. I would be wary of doing what has been done to me, so it's probably best to keep your distance.

never said they "want to sleep with me." I said there's some mutual attraction there and I could easily make something of it if I wanted to. also, I think "don't be friends with girls" is a pretty silly solution. the more I think about this, the more I think that it stems from me not being entirely happy with my current relationship (just mostly happy). it's pretty complicated, but suffice to say, I feel like I could be happier with someone else. it's tough... I'm mostly happy now, and my girlfriend accepts my quirks and loves me for who I am, but those thoughts still creep up in the back of my head.

Dude where you live ? somewhere in Asia? Which mysticals creatures your friends date?


Haha, although I don't live there at the moment, the friends I'm referring to live in France. They are not very mystical. Just practical I guess. Like each other but logistics work against them (distance separates them every now and then for various durations).
Sex doesn't have to be so sacred. Or like an extremely precious thing girls hand out to handsome princes as some sort of reward. Going steady/faithful should be a real decision. Not something everyone does because Disney said so.

Honestly if that is your thought process it'll never last so you might as well break up now and get with one of those girls that you're so sure you can get with.

I think this is probably the rarest thing in the world, and I'm pretty sure I would not want to date a girl who was cool with being in an open relationship.

I also like that video haha. I also believe that it is impossible for guys and girls to be just friends(on the guys side at least) unless there is like zero chance you'd ever be attracted to that person.

lol. you know the old saying about when you assume...

just saying. you know nothing about me or my relationship, so it makes you look silly when you make giant leaping assumptions like that. I could go really indepth and explain everything, but I'm less inclined to do so when I'm dealing with someone who'll just jump to conclusions.

You could simply say how old you are.
