I can say I have been with girls whose friends were guys all wanted to fuck em. I never held against em. Was honest about it with em, but I always put the trust in them to do the right thing.
I've learned in life there's a little truth to everything, and a lot of bullshit with a lot of things. You'll have horrible women, and horrible men. You'll have folks so obviously blind to what's in front of em, they won't know until their bumping uglies with eachother. You just gotta roll with it.
I feel like there is a difference between finding someone attractive enough to entertain the idea of having sex with them and starting/maintaining a friendship for the sole purpose of keeping open the possibility of sex in the future when they can exploit a vulnerability. If a friend treats everyone of his/her friends roughly equal, I see no harm. However, „friends“ that bend over backwards, get overly touchy and so on with the people in a committed relationship they wanna bang and not with people they don’t, I see a problem. Worst case yet that i encountered was a „friend“ that mimicked mannerisms, hobbies and appearances of the partner that „stood in his way“. That’s just plain creepy.
Also I think it has to be stated in life do your own thing. Most relationships, if you don't breed right away are lessons about others, life and yourself. You will learn finding women is realitivly easy but over coming financial strain is a whole bit of fucking awful. You will learn that there is not much love really in this world. As you all argue about mating issues the kings are gaining territory which has nothing to do with mating. This wretched earth.
