When to take it to the next level...

Hey everyone just checking this thing out... would like some feedback -

Can a guy and a girl really be just friends?

I ve been doing the dating relationship game now for a few months after getting out of something serious. Right now I'm having a difficult time phasing into taking the relationships I ve built with these women to the next level. I'm a pretty fun, crazy, intelligent, guy that is pretty considerate and helpful to the women I date. At the same time I know I want something more intimate with one girl and not spreading myself out so much as I ve been doing. There are 2 girls in particular right now that I've kinda been seeing that both seem to be on the line of not wanting anything serious.

One I met over the summer traveling abroad and we lived 15 mins from each other. Shes a friend at this point and Ive been very respectful and haven't even really tried making another move on. Enjoy each others company and laugh and smile a lot. Shes more introverted while I m the extroverted type. Ive learned a lot from her and shes even come out and told me that she doesnt see herself settling down or having children (which I had a great reply to that made her laugh). I d be lying if I said I didnt think there was potential with her. Having a tough time phasing into a more intimate relationship with her and expressing how I feel to her. At times she definitely gives me back interest but we ve kinda lost touch for a while - each of us working 2 jobs and I recently even started school again. Any thoughts on what to do?

The second I recently reconnected with on Facebook. Went to HS together and didnt really know each other cause I was detached from HS - hanging out with college friends mostly while she was into the whole HS drama - pretty and popular girl. Met up after chatting and she helped me shop for a baby shower. Date went well - I gave her a personality analysis and she wound up paying for lunch. Recently though has gotten dry though she said she liked hanging out and would do it again anytime. I m into this girl and would love to see what can happen. Whats the next move... again she said she may not be ready for a relationship cause they're alot of work.

I love being friends with these girls at the same time though I find it interesting meeting new women and have been getting friends trying to set me up as well. My game definitely could use work in the area of taking things to the next level. I haven't been showing that much interest and when I do I think I might show too much too quick and then back off. Isnt it weird how the more you get ignored the more you want someone? I respect any feedback on what you all think. I love as I said meeting new people- have no prob grabbing a phone number but at the same time these girls are on my mind at times. I love giving in a relationship and dont really look to see what I can take. Craving some more intimacy and passion and looking to see what kinda better strategies I can use to get into passion on a date.

Wow .... looks like women find you friendly, easy going person who they can talk to about anything. You give out vibes like that. I am not sure these women have any romantic feelings for you and find your friendship a platonic one.

It might be a good idea to ask the one you like more out on date. Not sure what her reaction would be, but it doesn't hurt to try. Good Luck
