Will a man befriend a woman without any sexual intention?
There are friendships that grow out of convenience, out of coincidence. And then there are friendships that men initiate because they just want to be around certain women. And by a sexual intention I don't necessarily mean a plan*. Is sex always part of the equation? I'm not a guy but I tend to think guys don't make an effort with girls unless they're attracted to them or like them, i.e. can/do picture having sex with them.
The worst offenders seem to be the ones in relationships. He can chat up girls left and right and pursue a lady all he wants, as long as he cuts it just short of leading her on. Hey, he's just friendly! Yeah? Well, I thought you were hitting on me so now I feel like an idiot so piss off! Rarrrrr...
*I don't think men are planners. I think men are instinctual; they react in the moment. I am a planner and analyzer. I find that my tendencies often hinder me. Often I wish I could act more like a man about men... sort of.

Your * footnote is accurate, at least in my experience of myself and observation of others. Although things change as we age. Like everything.
Ach, you don't want to think too much like a man. A little, sure, but too much, no.
Would you be offended if I said men think less than women, about dating? That's what I want: more thinking less. But mostly I'll just keep doing what I'm doing: over-analyzing and hyperventilating.
