I really need to start taking my own advice.

advice

my best guy friend is leaving on wednesday to go to the philipines(where he's from) for five weeks. we went out last summer for like two months and i never got over him. i know he still cares about me and were the best of friends. everyone thinks he likes me and im pretty sure its true. ive tried to move on but i think theres always gunna be something there between us. anyways, we're going to hang out before he leaves. im not sure if it will be just us or with a group but im thinking of kissing him before he leaves because im going to miss him. i dont know if this is a good idea because i dont know how he'll take it. if i give him a hug and kiss after we hang out do you think he will get the wrong idea; like i wanna go out with him? i dont want him to think that cause i dont want to mess up the friendship. sorry its long and thanks for reading. i love your advice.

I tried this once before, but me on the other hand wanted the guy as my boyfriend; it worked out beautifully. So yes, go ahead and try it. However, be sure to say something afterwards that has to do with your friendship.

For example:
Hug him, and pull back a bit and look at him. Lean in and kiss him, then say something along the lines of "I really love our friendship ____, I'm so glad to know you're always here for me. I'm going to miss you."

Or, you could always go for the safe route. Hug him, then kiss him on the cheek, then say "Thanks for being such a great friend."

Good Luck
