I love him but hes my friend!! yikes!


Question Posted Sunday August 7 2005, 10:49 pm

Okay. I like this boy and everything but he is like my best guy friend that I have! i like him so much. I'm not scared to tell anyone that I like them if I do. But I'm thinking about our relationship together. I don't want to ruin what we have right now. But I want more. I mean, if I told him and he didnt like me, it would be totally awkward!! Does anyone have any advice? I will rate high for GOOD advice!!

I think that you need to do more flirting around him like eye contact and smiling alot more around him, and sitting next to him more and things like that.
I've had this same problem before and it worked out because when I flirted with him and he flirted back I asked him out and we dated for a while. After that we were back friend again within a week so it all worked out, and i'm sure it will for you too, but if it doesnt then you need to enjoy all the time that you have together already and spend more time together so he can get to see what a great person you are already even if he already knows.
Good Luck and I hope this advice helps :P

if you know he likes you back then just kinda flirt more with him and let him know SUBTLY that you wanna go farther in your relationship...you can touch him..or hang out just you and him...sit closer to him...put your arm around him((this is recomended only of you know him well))- or when your saying goodbye, hug him and kiss him on the cheek

when my crazy but awesome friends want to get me with a guy that i liked-at a dance she grabbed the 2 of us and made us slow dance together-we ended up laughing about it, but then afterwards i got his sn and we talked and later he said that he liked me and that we should hang out sometime...

try different things, but if he still dosnt get the message..just say to him- " i think that i want to take our relationship farther..." make sure that he can tlk to you about it- you both have to be totally comfortable...

hope i helped

muchh lovve

Don't risk yourfriendship for a greed of wanting more of something. You could talk to him and if he's all weird about then he's not a good friend because I good friend will always be your friend no matter what. Relationships start out as friendships.

really dont stress too much about it TONS of people go through the same thing.. i would say go for it, just let him know that you like him but tell him that you arent sure if you want to have a relationship with him because you dont want to ruin what you have together. having a relationship with a best guy friend has its up's and down's.. first off, he must know you pretty well since you two are friends which would help alot in an actual relationship.. but if you ever DID go out and then broke up, it could ruin the friendship you used to have.. im not saying that will happen but it very well could.. i think that true friendship can handle anything though.. :o) hope it works out!!

Aight, I was kinda in the same position, and lucky for me it didn't get awkward. You prolly should tell him you like him. He should be able to understand that being so close of a friend those feelings could easily come into play. I think you should be straight up because not telling him will get you no where. Yes, it is a big risk, but if it's good it could be the best thing ever. The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward.

ok yes i agree with you that if you came out and told him you like him and he didnt feel the same way..things would get weird. But i doo think that not taking the risk will leave you thinking "what if?" and thats not good. if you dont go for this..it will kill you inside, you will constantly be thinking.."what if we could have had more?"
to go for the hookup AND to avoid weirdness, i would think of a trusted friend of yours (if you have a goood friend who is also a good friend of his ..then even better)
and talk to this good friend..have him/her talk to this guy ..say something like
"what do you think of (your name) as more than just friends?"
and if hes totally like 'no way, too awkward..why does she like me?" tell your friend to tell this guy
"no,i was just wondering because i think you two would make a good couple " or somethin like that

so friends talking to him for you works best if the awkwardness is a big concern..thats what i would do

i hope this helps!

Hey I totally understand what your going through. I went through the same a couple of times but the other way around. You know what a good thing to do is? My guy friends always started up a conversation about who I'd date and who he would date, and then would ask "so what would you think if we went out?" It's a good ? because it breaks the ice and you'll know what he really thinks, and if he says soemthing like "That would totally be awkward" then im sorry but you have to move on sweetie. but if he says that would be kinda cool then you should tell him how YOU feel. hope i helped xO marlene =)

When you're both alone, pin him and give him a big, long, passionet kiss. That'll get his attention! Haha! Just kidding.

I think that it's perfectly natural for good friends of oppisit sex to develop feeling for one another. This could develop mutually, or it could be one or the other to develop feelings for the other (hope I didn't confuse you!). You could get one of your friends (that he's friends with also) to casually ask this guy if he likes you more than just friends. If he says yes, then make your move soon! If not, then don't tell him anything. If it goes smoothly, then everything will be normal.

lyDia_LoU answered Sunday August 7 2005, 11:14 pm:
In my opinion, he wouldn't be best friends with you if he didn't have any feelings for you. Try showing him you like him. Things like touching his arm during a conversation. Do you catch him starring at you? Basically I think you should. I wouldn't say you like him "so much" but just point out that you're interested and see what he does. Good luck!

You should talk to him and tell him how you feel about it. If he didn't like you than you could still be friends either way. Tell him about how you like him but you don't want to ruin your friendship. Hope everything works out for you and hope I helped <3 Blair
