Connect the dots

I know it's hard to just be someone's friend

 

Wait no I don't.

I DON'T understand.

I have no sexual feelings before I like someone as a friend.

But I have the ability to suppress my feelings for those I need to see only as friends.

 

It isn't that hard.

And maybe I'm an outlier, 

but I have yet to find a single 

other female who ever ruined a friendship

because they wanted more and 

the other person "wouldn't give it to them".

 

News flash, if you only want the endgame,

you're a sucky friend.

Especially since sex is by no means

a good "endgame."

 

Sex is about connection, and if you

can't connect the dots of respect in friendship,

how are you going to respect someone's wishes elsewhere?

 

I've missed the point of this poem.

I'll have to write another.
