My best friend.


Question Posted Wednesday August 11 2004, 9:09 am

Hey. I've been friends with a guy from school since as long as I can remember, and when we left school at sixteen we went to the same Sixth Form for two years. We've just finished those years and are awaiting our exam results. Anyway, when we started sixth form we became closer, and at around last Christmas we became closer still. Our relationship has developed into an amazing best-friend friendship, he's someone I'd trust with anything.

However, I have a problem. I know this is cliche and sounds corny, but I find myself attracted to him as more than a friend. We see each other every single day when it's possible. He makes me laugh, and vice versa. We playfight. We go places together, and are always having fun. We're always hugging and touching each other, and when I see him I can't help the stupid grin that appears on my face. The reason why I haven't told him how I feel is because he's going to a University that's quite a way away in September. One, I don't want to ruin these last precious weeks we have together by making them akward. Two, I don't want him to feel limited when he's away, like he can't go out with anyone else for fear of me finding out and hurting my feelings. I care for him so much, but I don't want to hurt him or myself. Should I get over it? Should I talk to him about it?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

(p.s I'm 18/F and he's 18/M.)

I think, honestly, that it's better to talk to him about it, even if you come to the conclusion that you'd rather not loose what you have then live in regret - "it's better to regret something you have done than something you haven't".

Ok it seems like a situation that i was once in. First of all just tell this person how you feel you can't not tell them becasuse then you'll always wonder "what if".
Then ask the person how they feel once you get this cleared up you'll feel a lot better.

it sounds like youre not exactly sure about what youre feeling for this guy and you could tell him about how you think you feel or you can wait until he goes to school to see whether you get jealous, or if you cant live without him. definetly dont just get over him. what if he has feelings for you back. gosh, you guys have a really good relationship, almost like brother and sister.

Talk to him about it...or you will always wonder!! It sounds like he likes you anyway! I'm sure it won't make things akward, it could make them alot better! If things work out, tell him exactly what you said "I don't want him to feel limited when he's away", and let him decide on what he wants to do. But really, you should talk to him! Goodluck!! :D
