I have been asking myself may questions lately. I've a lot of time to think, and sometimes my thoughts take strange paths.

For instance. What makes someone a friend?

Is it a shared experience? Something that two share in common? Perhaps it is something else all together that draws two people together into something called friendship.

But what happens if one of the two involved acts on... intentions that are less than pure?

Is it still a friendship? Or is it now simply a manipulation of another person?

	But I'm just wondering what makes someone assign that label to another person and not another. [...] No, I am not. I wasn't even- I don't think that has anything to do with this, does it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Probably something simple like how much they like them. I don't know, you started talking about impure intentions, what else are you talking about? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think you're right. I'm overthinking this entirely too much. Manipulation. Coercion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm going to go out on a limb here and say manipulation and coercion are not friend activities. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yet I have experienced them in a supposed friendship. I'm wondering when the lines were crossed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I guess when you stop liking it, if you ever did. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hannibal. I feel as though I should have known this sooner. I'm looking back on things, and the signs are so clear, yet I failed to see them somehow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, him. I thought you meant some kind of relationship or something. Involving sex. Possibly women. Because love is blind, baby. Hindsight is always 20/20. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Valerie K/Will G stream 2014-05-12 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	I can't say that's been something I've been involved in for some time. But I'm glad you thought me capable, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Valerie K/Will G stream 2014-05-12 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	I think you see me as a friend, and there is nothing wrong with that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, I'm not going to go too much into it, but let's say if you didn't have handcuffs as an occupation and you had a little more in your wallet than an FBI card, you'd have a shot.

You might still have a short-term shot, it just kind of depends on where I am with my prospects. You understand, right?

	I just gave you a big "maybe if nothing better comes along." Why are you thanking me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Because it's more than I ever would have thought possible. The last woman I was in any position to be close to... told me that She wouldn't be good for me, I wouldn't be good for her, and her professional curiosity about me would always be there. In other words, a big no. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] I'm a topic of interest in the psychiatric circles. My particular brand of empathy does not present itself often, and combined with where I fall upon the spectrum, some find me intriguing. I'm not interested, however, in someone picking my brain, and those that know me know better than to press upon that matter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We certainly share that in common. It's been a note of contention in the past with some of my colleagues until they realise that I am unwilling to budge upon the issue. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
