BballBumMegan answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 8:16 pm: Well, if you don't love him then ur hurting him already by leading him on...you need to sit down and really talk to him one on one...explain to him that u really love your friendship..but you two need to cool off...if hes a true friend then he'll understand and you'll continue your great friendship...you can do that OR if you do love him you could learn to look past his imperfections such as his immature attitude
he seems like he really likes you...so take time to think it all out and i know u'll do the right thing hope i helped ya! (please rate!) [ BballBumMegan's advice column | Ask BballBumMegan A Question ]

Sunkiist answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 5:15 pm: Okay, I think that if yu don't feel the way he feelsz about yu and yu wanna dump him - yu should cause it'll hurt him more if yu wait and yu shouldn't be in a relationship with him if yu don't feel riqht about it. But yu should definatly talk to him first. Just be like `listen.. yur really cool and I like yu alot - but i'm havinq some problemsz :and then explain yur problem:`. If he'sz true and a qood friend.. he'll understand. Maybe he'sz actinq this way for a reason. The bets thinq to do is talk first and see what'sz up. Then decide what yu feel is riqht for yu and him.

Luscious_Kisses15 answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 5:08 pm: talk it out with him, you said he was a great friend so if he's worth having as a friend/boyfriend he'll understand. Tell him how you feels, and if he really likes you, he'll take it to heart and try to act better. And hey, no guy is worth not feeling happy, so no matter how much you think you're going to hurt him, he said he loved you so he'll still want to be friends.
Once again you can only hear so much advice, you have to make decisions on your own, think about the consequences to both of your actions. Like if i stay with him, i'm not gunna be happy and i'm gunna hate hearing him say he loves me when i can't say it back. Or if i break up with him, what happens if he doesn't want to be friends? is he worth losing, even though i'll be happy?
XxCuTiEzxX answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 5:03 pm: well if u wana break up with him and still want to b friends with him then talk to him about it ask him to be more mature! then you would have your best friend and the man of your dreams!

the_haha_boat answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 5:02 pm: If you love him too, then he can get over his immaturity, or you can. Is he only immature around his friends, because that happens sometimes, and maybe then you could just not hang out w/ him when hes with his friends. If the case is that your not happy though then you should end it because its not doing either of you good. Good luck w/ whatever you decide to do.

Mackenzie answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 4:58 pm: You *CAN'T* stay in a Relationship because ONE paRtneR doesn't want it to end. If you'Re unhappie.. you need to get out. Yes, I'm shoRe he'll be upset, but you need to do the Right thing heRe! It's unfaiR to you to keep putting up with something you'Re not Really into, and it's unfaiR to him because.. honestly.. what's the point in giving youR heaRt away to somoene who won't give you theiRs??? Tell him you caRe foR him, but you don't want a Relationship with him. He should undeRstand.. it's in BOTH of youR best inteRests!! I wish you the best of luck!! Hope I helped!! =D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
BlueEyedBlondie725 answered Wednesday August 18 2004, 4:57 pm: Just tell him what you just told us. Just be like "I know you told me you love me and everything, but I just don't have those kind of feelings like that for you like you do for me. And I don't want to hurt you because you're a great friend. And I want to keep you as a friend, its just I don't think its working out for us because I don't have those kind of feelings anymore and I don't want this to keep going on if I don't have them for you anymore..I'm sorry. But, you're a great friend and I just want to know if you can still be my friend..?" Just say something like that and let him know he's a great person and you still want to have a frienship just not a relationship. Hope this helps and good luck.
