men, sex, friends and romance

[111222333]

Can a guy care about a girl very much as friends, want to sleep with her, and not be romantically interested? And if so, what should the girl do in that situation if she truly cares for him and wants more from the relationship? If there are no romantic feelings, but a guy keeps trying to make sexual advances, does that mean he doesn't think much of you as a friend?

Guys can generally separate sex from love very easily. If you want more from him than casual sex, then don't settle for casual sex.

I guess what I'm asking is this, if your bestfriend was a girl, would you try to sleep with her if you were not interested in romance? And if you did continue to try, even though she kept saying she didn't think it was a good idea, would it mean that she wasn't actually your bestfriend, that you didn't respect her, or perhaps even that you were more interested in the conquest than your friend and her feelings? Or... What?

The question you should be asking yourself is, do you want more than sex out of this relationship or don't you?
