Ha! JR, you might not know write from right but ... you ain't lacking a subtle sense of humor.

> Friend-zone

MWD coaches advocate friendship while the conventional wisdom in the forum is to not become a castrated friend. I think what I've wound up doing is to be a good friend in short bursts, but always end it quickly, don't linger. Let her know I can be a good friend, but on my own terms, I'm not going to sit around and mope for her attention.
