Growing up, my photo could've been next to a male friend and friend zone. I had and still can have a platonic friendship with a woman; I've changed, though. I'm not as generous with my time to invest in these relationships as I used to be. I did all of the listening to a woman's problems for hours without secretly having an agenda of having sex.

I'm a straightforward person. If we have physical chemistry, we know that early on. I'm not too fond of hidden agendas. I'm honest; why do I have to lie? I don't like making my life complicated. Other people had more problems with me being in the friend zone than I did it was weird for me to be friends with a woman without lusting for her. No people outside of me were weird. I had no problem getting sexual relationships so I was secure in having platonic ones.
