I seem to find a lot of stories about gemini men staying as a "reserve" via the friend front line. Even though they know they're not number one, they're persistent at keeping their foot in the door anyway.

Is this common? Are you even ok with this if so? Would this be something you, as a gem man, would even think a convenient situation(As in..you have your own line of woman as well thank-you-very-much!)?

To be honest it hits a little close to home. Now I've never been anything but honest and open, but I'm starting to think I'm being very inconsiderate. He always acts content with what things are though..

this is true, but i dont really see it that way...its not like im TRYING to be there just incase nawmean...its just how i am with friends,and i dont play games like that. so maybe you're misinterpreting this "reserved" action for him just being himself...just my thought.

Yes I didn't see it like that either, my man was good being my friend and truly being a friend when I was married. When things shifted he was still a good friend....not really good with the friend role once he saw I was interested in dating again so he stepped up and said ok, this is what I want and kindly and gently (I say that somewhat tongue in cheek) led this bullette into his pasture. 🙂 he is a friend first....and we like it that way.....perhaps your interest is building the foundation to whatever future life has in store for you both? Regardless of what it might be. 🙂

My Gem ex kept the cat he gave to me on my bday when we broke up...I still talk to him years later about my cat so I'd say that's a GREAT way to keep his "foot in the door." LOL!

My Gemini ex pulled something similar. We were Volkswagen buffs and had an old van that we had fixed up together. I had technically bought it, and it should have been mine when we broke up, but he raised such a stink about keeping it that I just left on a bus to be done with him. Turns out he wanted the van so badly so he could hold it over my head for years and try to lure me back with it.

Ok, so you're seriously saying that you're an off and on fuck buddy because you're a good "friend". You will off and on stay up all night listening to heartache and sharing yours because you're a good "friend"? Really, really? I just find it kind of hard to believe that feelings can be so easily separated. Hell even I have problems with it.

"fuck buddy"?...no. just no
