i'm falling for my best friend..


Question Posted Tuesday May 16 2006, 7:20 pm

See, I'm falling for my best guy friend. And I don't know what to do. Seriously. I know it's so cliche but stfu. If you don't like it, don't read it. I've known him since the 5th grade, we've gone to school together ever since then and we're still at the same school. Things have always been great between him and I, but lately I've been having these feelings towards him that I shouldn't be feeling. Usually among my friends I'm always the one to give advice, but now it's the other way around. Let's say his name is Bret, okay? okay. Brett and I have even been compared to as an old married couple. Because we argue and argue for about an hour, and then five minutes later everything is back to the way it was before. I just don't know what to think, a couple of my friends think he cares about me more than I know. I sort of agree but he cares about me in the way a best friend should, not something more. My friends say maybe he does like you but he's too scared because it might ruin our friendship. But the thing is I can never be mad at him, it's not possible. I try my hardest but it never works. He always wins me back with his stupid boy charms. But I'm just the friend right? And is that all I'll ever be?

Sincerely,
A Girl With A Confused Heart.

hey a girl with a confused heart first you never know what you'll be if you dont give it a try. It may work out for the best sonce you known each other for so long so talk to him private and tell him that if dont feel the same way nothing going to change but you need to let him know how you feel about him

I suppose my advice depends on how much you like this guy. If you like "Brett" enough that you feel he is worth taking a chance on, I say try it. Approach him about it. Tell him that you know you are both really good friends, but that lately you have started to have feelings for him. Tell him that you understand if he doesnt feel the same but you didn't want to with hold something major from him. Then tell him that you don't want you telling him this to change the friendship if he doesn't feel the same.

If you think he is the type of guy that will not be effected if you do tell him, then go ahead and try it. But be prepared in case he doesn't like you to follow through and still stay friends and not let any awkwardness come into the friendship

One not serious question: Are you me?

No seriously, I'm like in the same boat ALWAYS. I always fall for my guy friends and the reason why we don't go out is it will ruin our friendship. Also, all of my friends call the other couples "old married couples" and the only unofficial couple that we call it is me and my crush.

First think about what you would rather have...an awesome guy friend or a boyfriend.

Then talk to him about your decision.

You would think I would have a better answer after being me but I honestly think this is one of life's unanswered questions.
