...Works for me?

... I tend to prefer it this way, too. Except when those friendships remain just that- friendships and never anything that involves being naked.

That guy I had a massive crush on at work? Yep. Was not the first time. If I don't marry Gerhard, it will definitely not be the last time. The majority of my crushes have turned into friendships.

Men complain about the stereotypical 'friends space' from whence romance can never spring. I might just be a man.

Edit: Not that having friends isn't totally awesome! It's just that I'm completely inept at expressing romantical feelings for someone. I look back at the ways in which I have managed to do so in the past, and I cringe. I think I missed the 'seduction' part of 'Learning To Be Female', wherein one can turn a friendship into something more.
