You're right.  I guess I don't mean that I'd put absolute limits for 
all time, just be a little careful about it, slower to trust. And I 
never place "in my circle" type of limits on anything although it does
lower risk since men in my circle have mutual friends to answer to.

I guess you don't know
what it's like to have someone pretend to be your friend when you're 
going through an emotionally vulnerable time in your life just for 
ulterior motives.  Maybe it's also my own fear of having to say no to
people I'm close to but it's just easier to be on guard with men and 
confide in and depend on my female friends more.
