writes: So, my issue is I don't have many friends of the opposite sex. Why? Because I've lost them all because they started having romantic feelings for me. My issue is pretty stupid and simple, but it's urgent to me. How can I have guys who are just friends and don't want to bang! I lost my very best friend because I didn't have romantic feelings for him, and now I'm just utterly sick of it. Thanks in advance.

i'm sorry- i don't have much of an answer, but i'm just "happy" to read someones having the same problem(: haha i love having guy friends because their so care-free and it's nice to be away from the girliness that i live, and everytime i try to keep a guy a friend they push it to the limit and it ends..
what's been working lately is i just tell them upfront- my best guy friend right now meet me with hopes of a hook-up but minutes into the conversation i told him "i love your personality! but know that you're not getting anywhere with me, but i want to keep you as a friend if you're fine with that" and basically he agreed and here we are(: best friends.
just pretty much, try telling them upfront. it definetly doesn't work with all of them, but that way no one gets hurt in the end when someone wants more
