James--thank you so much for responding to this ancient post! I was about to write something nearly identical to it!
Why can't guys understand when you just want to be friends!!!!! Don't you boys understand body language???? I mean if a girl keeps trying to take a step back, why the hell do you go in for the kiss????!!!! I'm so annoyed right now. I have to figure out if I can still be a long distance friend w/ this guy after he leaves and not have him expect anything when he returns home.

WHY WHY WHY does this ALWAYS happen!!!
