They say we can\u2019t be pals, that it can never be,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why? You ask, no room for platonic with opposites, apparently,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Temptation has the final say, unless one of us is gay,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hook-ups are inevitable, getting fresh inevitable as day,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can\u2019t fight biology, urges and all, put \u2018em together long enough, clothes are bound to fall,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And don\u2019t get started on situations when one or both are committed,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They may stay faithful, others lack respect and discipline, it\u2019s a one-in-two-chance, why even risk it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Better keep an eye on \u2018em, so they\u2019re sayin\u2019, \u2018lest you want to lose \u2018em,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guys and gals just can\u2019t be pals, don\u2019t say they didn\u2019t warn ya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But who are they to presume that all are crude and crass?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That it\u2019s straight to the sack as soon as they cross paths?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How little trust must you have towards \u2018em if you ain\u2019t letting \u2018em mingle with others, can\u2019t control \u2018em 24\/7, you ain\u2019t their mother or father,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sounds like y\u2019all are projecting your own lack of self-control, perhaps your own insecurities,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How\u2019d you feel if the tables were turned? If they\u2019re dictating with whom you\u2019re allowed to converse,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If there\u2019s love and respect they\u2019d behave themselves, never do you dirty,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So leave that distrust at the door, no one looks good oozing petty jealousy,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And what if they befriended the opposite gender before they met their significant other?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They supposed to leave them behind? Their ride or dies for life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your issues aren\u2019t their burden, your paranoia could cause them to flick ya,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hell you even doing with \u2018em if you ain\u2019t trusting \u2018em? That shit sounds fucking counter-productive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sit and chill out, let \u2018em all be pals,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You wouldn\u2019t want the same treatment, to have your own circles limited,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But of course, there\u2019s also that proverbial elephant in the room,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This can only work if both parties agree to keep it cool,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No catching feelings, no silly business and fooling around,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If one or both can\u2019t or won\u2019t then it\u2019s obviously a big, glaring \u2018nope\u2019,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if they\u2019re just hanging out, chopping up like a couple of buds,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No need to get worked up, let \u2018em have friends while you have yours,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if they ran together long before you\u2019d arrived, your demands to separate \u2018em instantly disqualified, couples aren\u2019t always certain but true friendship lasts forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
