friends or more?


Question Posted Saturday April 30 2005, 11:29 am

ok i have this friend. WE have been friends forever. But last year i started feelin like i was starting to like him as more than a friend. So i saked my friend to ask him out for me (really bad idea) and he said no cuz he didnt wanna ruin our frienship. So another friend asked him and he said no once again. I really really like him and now everytime i see him i feel so awkward and i dont know what to say to him. I feel like now that i have asked him, we arent really friends anymore. But i still really like him and i really wanna gou out with him. Please tell me what i should do, or even what you would do if you were me. Thanks so much

Well, I think your friend has made it pretty clear that he doesn't want to go out with you. This means that unless you want to make things extra awkward and possibly lose the friendship, you should stop asking him out.

If you are close friends, you'll be able to weather this storm. Let him know that you feel awkward, but that you really want to work through it and remain friends. This conversation can be scary, but it's something that needs to happen if you want to stay close with this guy. The ball is also in your court as you are the one that asked him out.

I think you were really brave to recognize your feelings and act on them, and it's now going to take as much bravery to work through your hurt feelings and this awkwardness.

But I also believe you can do it.
