Question Posted Saturday February 4 2006, 4:20 pm

Well I used to like one of my best friends, I've known for 9 years so I had one of my friends tell him and it turns out he never thought of me as more than a friend. Now its like 7 months later and he's ignoring me and I miss him a lot.I dont like him anymore but I miss being his friend. What should I do?

The same thing happened to my friend not too long ago. What you need to do is call him up one day and tell him exactly how you feel. Tellhim that you don't like him more than a friend anymore, but you miss your friendship with him. tell him how you feel and you would be surprised, he probably feels the exact same way. After you speak to him try and act casual around him, the same way you acted before your fight.
Good Luck! Hope this helps!

if you go to school with him, bring him into a hall way or a stair case where its not to noisy, and if you dont, just show up at his house, just make sure you tell him face to face, and explain to him, that you dont like him like that anymore .. and that you guys have been best friends for nine years, and didnt want that to change .. try to explain to him that u just want to have him as a friend again, and you missed those days where ud just talk for hours about nothing.

Just talk to him or send him a letter or e-mail and tell him how you feel about it, tell him everything, that you miss him a lot and don't like him in that way anymore. It's all you can do, there's no trick or anything to get things the way they were before without awkward conversations.
Good luck.

I think he owes you an apology. If he wasn't interested in you then, he should have told you so instead of trying to avoid you. That's no way to treat a best friend of 9 years. He must be really important to you if you're willing to be friends with him after that.

The first thing I would do is talk to him about what happened. Let him know that he should have communicated with you instead of avoiding you if he wasn't interested. After all, you have been friends for 9 years and he shouldn't have walked away from that because you developed feelings for him. Let him know that you don't have feelings for him anymore but you miss being friends with him since y'all had a lot of fun. He probably misses being friends with you too.

Best friends should be able to let each other know what's going on and work through everything together. Having your friend tell him you like him is probably what made him think that it was OK for him to just take all the time and distance he wanted. Be sure to have open communication with him at all times to avoid stumbling over the same hole again, because in time something like that is going to happen again.
