Ok, I told her. I explained that I like hanging with her etc., but it got too 'relationship-ish' too quickly, and that's not what I want. I reminded her that I don't want a girlfriend.

She said "Yeah, I thought that's what you were gonna say. I really like hanging out with you and if it means anything I'd be sad if we stopped hanging out completely."

I just wonder if she's capable of not growing closer? I'm not being arrogant... I just mean that I tend to have a colder heart that most with things like that. So where a normal person would grow attached, I don't.

So let me get this straight...  You want to hang out with her.. have her as a friend and get to know her.. possibly engage in physical contact with her..  and it has to be COMPLETLEY on your term without any consideration for what she wants or how she feels??

That's what it sounds like.

Hey, I've been completely honest with her from the beginning. If she wanted more, then it would have to be cut off. I've been funking about this because I don't know how SHE feels, and would never want to hurt her.

However, I did just get done talking with her and it sounds like we're on the same page.

Or she just said what she thought you wanted to hear so she wouldn't be cut off from you...

If he has spelled that out to her and she is ok with it, I don't see how that makes him the bad person.

Okay, I'll be the one Pollyanna ... then again, I've been down for 10 weeks (more, really, struggling with depression since last November) ... but today is okay. Probably because I start training again, for Ironman and I'm really happy about that.

But I'm really, really dizzy, and I'm never dizzy. I keep feeling like I'm pitching forward. I'm eating a good second breakfast and hopefully that will help

Well, then that's her own stupid fault, and she's not being honest with me.

Don't you understand that it is the firm belief of most women that men can be trained to do as the women folk want?
