Don't catch feelings...

"Don't wanna' choose between having you in my life, or losing you forreal because I caught feelings" - Marsha Ambrosius of Floetry

Having a female as a close friend gives you an advantage over those without female friends. For starters shes a female...it doesn't get better than that, then its the fact that she can tell you about yourself and be honest. See you can't go up to your boy and say "Dawg, is this outfit straight?" some cases its alright but sometimes its borderline homo. Having close female friends can help you understand females better which can help with your game...if you have any. The only thing you have to worry about is her time of the month and the #1 rule of the game...don't fall in love with a friend.

My nigga never ever, ever, ever catch feelings for a female friend. Why? I'm glad you asked...well first off your in the friend-zone so in most cases she doesn't feel the same way about you and once your in the friend-zone its a struggle to get out. Second off, if she does feel the same way about you and you both decide to take it to the next level shit changes alot. Catching feelings for a friend especially if shes close can ruin your friendship. When you start having feelings you don't view her as a friend you view her as your girl and then little shit yall did when yall was friends turns offsenive because now your more than friends.

It doesn't always turn out this way though. I mean being a friend and a lover isn't all bad. You provide eachother with support and love throughout the day and at night your exploring her body with only one thing on your mind. But in most cases in the first few months of the relationship it might be all good and then shit turns sour. In the end you'll feel not only heartbroken if you fell for her like that but you'll realize you just lost a close friend. Once you go past that point and fuck up you really can't patch things up.

I caught feelings for a friend...that shit took me on a ride. But lessons are learned and life keeps going on. Don't make it one sided either...cause near the end of the song Marsha changed the hook on us she went from,
"Because I caught feelings" to "Because we caught feelings"
Females share the same feelings as we do. Keep the friendship friendly pimp, and if you happen to catch feelings, then catch them right and don't fuck up. I mean, some of the strongest relationships are built because the couple were friends first. Its all about the love.
