I have a LOT of history with this boy. We went to nursery together and then the last few years of primary school together (kind of friends) and then we went to the same rowing club.
At this time I massively fancied him and made it really clear, we went on a date but nothing really came from it. Then about 6 months later he decided he really liked me and asked me to hang out at least 5 times but I'd lost feelings so declined each offer.

Now we're in the final years of high school together and we are really close friends and I like him soo much but he just got out of a pretty bad (but brief - 2 months-ish) relationship.
He told our mutual friend that he is attracted to me (since breakup) WHAT DO I DO? I don't want to ruin our wonderful friendship :(
Btw I'm female and we're both 17 years old (link)
Hello!

You seem like a very genuine person, so I'll be as genuine as I can to you. I'm experiencing something very similar to this happen to me in a relationship with a friend of mine who is a girl (I'm a guy). Long story short, we were good friends for a long time, tried dating for a month, but disconnected because she lost feelings, which was really sad. Now, I'm getting romantic-like signals off of her after being away for a few months, and I can't help but really like her again (even though I'm in a relationship rn [I know, it's bad]).

Your friend was probably really disappointed (in the way I was) when you two broke up. I bet he's a bit of a changed person now who is totally ready for a serious relationship with none other than you. It sounds like you already have good chemistry. I would go for it! Just be really honest with each other so you both know what you're getting into.

Good luck!
