No that is the line "I look at you as my brother".

And the only plausible answer to that is: I am an only son. (and leave)

loinburger's three rules for dating:

Rule #1: Women are haters.

Rule #2: See Rule 1.

Rule #3: Did I mention that women are haters?

Another plausable answer is "So how do you feel about incest?"

But that doesn't always work.

Errrr... I live in the South. The line "I think of you as my brother" might not convey the message you're thinking of around here. A girl would likely get a response along the lines of "Well HOT D**N, sissy! Let's Go!"

You have to read between the lines. I.e.; good girls want to be bad and bad girls want to be good.

Good girls and bad girls ? Tell you, most women are little angels AND little devils - and they show it anyway. If you mean a man should play both sides, then yes.

Haters? Hating what? Do I taste a itsy bitsy bitterness here?

They sure hate other women. Had a big argument this week with my girlfriend about going to a birthdayparty of an ex-girlfriend of mine. She didn't mind, but blah blah blah.., Drekkus is staying home friday night.

Hater = *******, *****, bastard, ****er, ****, whatever it seems most appropriate to translate it as at the moment.

Don't read too much into a hippie-post on an internet bulletin board. Women are all well and good as long as they don't hate on me, and so long as I don't have a relationship with one they either a. don't hate on me, or b. are powerless against my Haterade.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH!

Don't get too worked up over this.

If the girls says lets be friends, be friends. That doesn't mean you can't become a really close friend that every so often behaves like he already was the boyfriend and make the "friend" scratch her head.
Many marriages have been made out of the line "we already behaved like we were married, so we just went ahead and did it".

The lets just be friends line works on different aspects though.
One, -you're cute but i'm trying to grab someone else right now.
Two, -it took you too long to hit on me and now you'll suffer the consequences.
Three, -you're too nerdy looking for me to parade with you as a boyfriend.
Four, -i hate men right now but stay around for when i reconcile myself with the gender.
And so on.
