Because if you like him like a brother, it might be difficult to carry on a romantic relationship with him. You can't make yourself think of him in a different light. You can sure try, though, and make yourself feel guilty about not returning his romantic feelings. Don't beat yourself up either way, though...whether you like him as a boyfriend or not. It's just the way it was meant to be, and probably is for the better. You don't want to string him along when you really aren't <i>romantically</i> attracted to him.

And don't scrape a relationship based on the fact that kisses feel odd right now. If you two have been together a long time and are close, things will come naturally with time. [ MandyBB's advice column | Ask MandyBB A Question ]
