Also, sexual desire and romantic feelings are not the same thing, but young men have an especially hard time disentangling the two. As I get older I have a much easier time being friends with women than I did when I was in my teens to early twenties. I have a couple friends that are very attractive women, and while I'm attracted to them, I have no trouble decoupling my attraction from my friendship. This is something I would have found impossible a decade ago.
