At this point, I would like to introduce The DCWP (pronounced Duh-c-woop) Rule. This rule is inviolate, cannot be argued with, and can be used in a number of circumstances. This particular example is a classic DCWP moment. Once the DCWP Rule is invoked, by law the object of platonic affection must never refer to your drunken ramblings, and must never base any of his/her future behaviour on your misguided statements.

It is only The DCWP Rule which allows us to maintain our fragile hold on World Peace (Subsection: Relationships) and, as such, is far more important than such irrelevances as the ten commandments, the law, or the constitution. However, it has to be used with respect as The DCWP Rule is a powerful thing; do not use it lightly.

I've known it to work backwards several times :P . I've sort of known a girl but not very well, got pretty drunk together(but not on every occasion), had a good sesh :wink: , followed by a slightly awkward week or so and then become solid platonic friends(with the odd relapse in some cases!). Everybody's happy :D !

Personally, I can't help but think about what it might be like to bone any decent looking woman I come across. If they're married, it's platonic. If they aren't, I am, so it's still platonic.

Before I got married, it was different. I'd be after any attractive woman who dared show any interest in me whatsoever. The chase may not have lasted long, but there was a chase. Platonic is for :yearght:

Well, if it's a gal you've convinced yourself you'll never have, I wouldn't worry to much about it. Just enjoy the view. If you've got a chance at her, I say go for it. You're only young once.

Three things you should get as much of as you can when you're young, surfing, sex and real estate.
