I have Female Friend (Ex Girlfriend) who lives in the same Block as me.
As far as I'm concerned she is just a friend and Sex with her hasn't even entered my head. All we are is good friends with a relationship that ended many years ago.
She's been through a real Rough Time and I'll be there for her if she needs a chat. After all her Boyfriend beat her up and left her for dead then whilst she was unconscious he set the house on fire with her still in it, luckily she managed to come round and escape.
She's so paranoid that she stays awake of a night but sleeps through the day.
Her boyfriend was well known for being mentally unstable and I think she likes me being with her as I have no fear of him and he knows it, but I can't be her minder forever nor would I want to be her Lover.
I call round 2/3 times a week to see how she's getting on and I know she feels safe and can relax when I'm there.
But as for Sex, I'd prefer just to talk to her and that's the way it will remain. So you can have Female Friends who are not sexual partners, whether she wants it or not it won't be with me. Just Old friends from a LONG LONG TIME ago, and that's the way it shall remain.

Tony.
