im falling for my best friend...


Question Posted Wednesday December 28 2005, 1:22 am

ive known this guy for about 5 years and hes my best friend. i never used to think i had feelings for him until now. but things are getting confusing now, when we hang out he'll do things like put his arm around me or cuddle and i dont know what to think. im starting to feel things for him but i have no idea what he feels about me. i dont know if i should ignore these feelings because i dont want to ruin the friendship we have. any advice would be helpful.

I think you both are in the same situation. Hes trying to tell you that he likes you more than just a friend but he too cannot do much about it because you're his best friend. A friendship is one of the greatest things a person can have with someone. A "dating" relationship means absolutely nothing compared to what you have with this guy.

Just wait, you know it will just happen by itself, and you both will be aware of its bloomingness (if thats a word) but probably wont tell one another because you are both frightened of both the asking out part and the breaking-up part (consequences-both of which can ruin such a beautiful friendship as you obviously realize). Asking someone out is sort of asking them for permission to be in a "dating" relationship BUT you two don't need any of that. As I see it, you two already have it...and what you have right now is everything. Cherish it and be happy. I mean, I would love to have a best friend I can talk to and be myself around like you do.

Continue to be who you are and dont ignore these feelings or his feelings because they are the strongest one can feel.

Much love

tell him how you feel. if you dont you may miss your chance. make sure you let him know that you dont want your feelings to get in the way or ruin the friendship.

Chances are he does like you, as for the second part I can tell you what to do but the final decision is up to you.If I were you I would talk to him, just don't lay it on too heavy.

Unless he's naturally flirty, he's got all the signs for liking you. You can't ignore your gut feeling, if it's strong enough it'll keep coming back. I understand you don't want to ruin the friendship, but it seems like he's already crossed the borders, and there's kind of no turning back at this point. Normal best friends don't "cuddle", and if you guys have on more than one occasion I think he's trying to hint at you.

good luck babe!

I was in the same exact situation as you, before I moved. I had a best friend, named Charles & we were best friends since 2nd grade, onwards through right now (we're sophmores) and I started liking him in 5th grade, but I never dated him because we were like best friends, and I didn't want to like dent our relationship if we broke up or something of that sort you know? Basically, now that I moved away I'm so pissed off at my self because I never told him how I felt about him, and I also found out he liked me for the LONGEST time too! You need to tell him your feelings, even if he doesn't feel EXACTLY the same way you do, atleast you know, that he'll alwayws be your best friend.

Just start flirting with him a lot until he knows you like him, and until you get an idea he likes you. Smile at him a lot. Call him maybe..plan some times for you two to hang out!!
Hopeeee I helped!!!!!!<333
