ok this may take a while but it's worth it. i have this guy friend, he's a sophomore and i'm a senior. we get along really well - we have a brother/sister relationship. i've liked him for a while and he likes me, except there are a few problems:
-we tried being more than friends for a little bit (hanging out, making out, etc.) but it didn't work out, i ended it, but i'm not sure why
-he's looking for a more physical relationship while i'm looking for a more emotional one
-if we went out and my friends found out, they'd kill me. they'd do everything they could to get us to break up because not one of them likes him
-i don't want to lead him on if i'm just gonna hurt him again
i know i may have left some things out. if you need more info just ask and i'll add it. thanks so much :)

1.if hes looking for sex and the inbetween stuff and your looking for the long term kind if relationship then itll only turn out bad and wont work, trust me im waiting till marraige and all hell try to do is push you into something you dont want to do and youll just end up getting hurt.
2.but...if you really like him then dont let yoiur friends stop you from going out with him but if your friend really really likes him then maybe you should talk to her about it first cuz friends can last forever while guys more then likely only last for a little while and its not worth losing your friends over.
It doesnt sound like hes that great for you, if you want a physical and emotional relationship then go for it, but make sure you dont let him pressure you into doing something youre not ready for cuz he might just want to get in your pants and when he does he might be done with you and your just gonna be setting yourself up for a heartbreak.i can get really into this so if you wanna talk more then my aim sn is bondbabethree, you can im me [ bondbabethree's advice column | Ask bondbabethree A Question ]
Sherry answered Wednesday March 23 2005, 12:12 pm: Forget about your friends. Their not really your friends if their going to try to break you up! Right? And well before you go out talk to him about what your worried about : how he wants a physical relationship and you want an emotional one. and how you dont want to lead him on. I'm sure you'll come up with ways to work things out if you just talk about it. Good luck! Sorry if I didnt help much! [ Sherry's advice column | Ask Sherry A Question ]
