A Friend.....


Question Posted Saturday August 14 2004, 12:44 am

Okay here's my problem!I liked this guy here and there on and off. There's no doubt that there isn't any attaction cause people see it all the time. When we go out in public, people think we are a couple. I told him how I really felt about him (though we are like best friends) he said he only likes me as a friend, and that he's sorry he can't return the same feelings. But he also like one of my friends and out of the kindness of my heart, I hook them up... but she's jux like me, and we are also cool. I'm not jealous (yet) or anything like that cause me and him still flirt the same way we do, and we are still good friends. So I dunno what to do, still like him or move on? I dunno how to feel or what to think? Any advice? Plz help! Thankz a munches!

well a lot of guys do this...yall probably have a very good relationship as friends and if yall would go out and then break up, it would probably be really awkward to be around each other afterwards. so maybe thats why...talk to him about it

Well as hard as it may be for you, you gotta try and move on. OR maybe you can still like him just hide your feeling and not let them mess up his and your other friends relationship. You should be happy for each of them and let him know that your glad there together. It will help him stay himself and for him to know that your happy for him makes him feel better cause he knows hes not hurting you. hOPE i HElPEd

That's great that you two managed to keep your friendship even though he knows you like him.
If I were in your shoes, I think I'd probably move on, but make sure I keep his friendship. This guy sounds like a nice one. A lot of guys might've freaked out on you if they found out you liked them, but he remained friends, and even cooler, the friendship didn't change. Yay!
You will probably still like him for awhile, even if you don't want to, so it's more of a "what's gonna happen" than a "what should I do" question. If you find another guy you kinda sorta like, cool. If you still like this guy, that's okay, too.
It's also possible that he could develop a crush on you. Keep that in mind, but I wouldn't wait for him.
I hope this helped!

you can definitly still like him! hey, you set him up with your best friend which is a totally awesome thing to do. give yourself some credit here! just don't act like you still like him around them, cause the whole third wheel thing isn't good. good luck!

I would say move on. You guys have a good fRiendship, and that's awesome! But foR the moment, just give it a Rest and let things be. I'm shoRe you wouldn't want to do anything to jeopaRdize youR fRiehsip. PeRhaps someday he'll change his mind about the two of you as a couple. Just keep youR head up, and push foRwaRd! If it's "meant to be", it will. Hope I helped!! =D

Oh I have the same problem, accept he doesnt like my friend anymore, and she is NOTHING like me, but um well I would just wait for him to come along, becasue if he finally realizes that you 2 are good for eachother, he will ask u out, trust me!! thats what im doing with the guy i like A LOT! it will work. because me and this guy are getting closer and closer by the minute!! good luck!!

the best thing i can tell you is i know how you feel. i have this friend who always ends up STEALING all my guy friends. but there was this one in paticular. we were "dating" for a while and he dumped me to hang with her. so it is painful when a guy you like goes for your best friend. but i can tell you that i am way past it and deeply care about another guy, and it is a better relationship than the one i woulda had with the one guy! so, move on, date new guys, cuz there is NO USE waiting around for a guy who doesnt care about you. and flirting with a guy-pal can be fun. but sometimes, not a good idea, trust me, i did this one too, and we ended up not talking again...EVER! so it is a bad thing some times, and soemtimes can lead you to a new love (like it did me) so just get otu there and flirt your young heart away! there are plenty of guys you can have, if they think you are not with your guy-friend! so appearing single is a must! :D

hope i helped you a lot! good luck! and let me know how things turn out ok?

first of all congrats to you for actually telling him how you feel! i only wish i had the guts to do that...lol. but that is the best way to go about these situations because you can actually get things out in the open insted of wondering "what if".
anyway, since you did tell him and he says he only wants to be friends, then that's probably as far as it will go right now. do your best to move on. its awesome that you guys are still good friends, so you dont want any jealousy to hurt that friendship. maybe he has some friends he can fix you up with! and hey, you never know..maybe sometime down the road he will like you as more than a friend!

Well, if he is dating your friend, its probably not best to flirt with him too much. Some people, once they are good friends with someone, they dont want to date them. Try dating other people or try to get over him. If its easier, just try to stop looking at him as more than a friend, jsut look at him as a bug...good luck!
