Question Posted Saturday September 30 2006, 10:41 am
okay well my best guy friend ever, likes me...and i think i like him and he is going to ask me to homecoming,
but i just dont want things screwing up if something bad goes wrong, like if he asks me out, and we break up and wont be the same again, thats what im afraid of. but all my friends say that having a good friendship first makes the best relationships..
so should i just go and see where it takes me or what?

Just first of all, have a great time and see if he flirts or anything and how you feel about it all. If you notice your feelings grow stronger then I think you should take a chance with him. Even though, yes some relationships can't return to that friendship level they once had, but if you guys work at it hard enough and ever were to break up, I'm sure you could go back to being friends. I've done it before with my ex-boyfriends.
If he does ask you out and you really do want to go out with him, like I said, go for it! But just talk to him about it. Be like,"I really do like you and I really do want to go out with you, but I'm just really worried. What if we were to break up, and then we wounded up hating eachother? I don't know if I could deal with that. I wouldn't want to lose you and have you hate me or not talking to me or something." And just talk it. I assure you, nothing'll go wrong to make the friendship awkward. Maybe even make a pact between the two of you.
My friend and her boyfriend did this because they were best friends for the longest time before they started dating. The first day they started dating ( or whenever they talked about it ) they just made themselves a little promise between eachother that no matter what happens, they'll always remain friends and talk to eachother.

Hope it helped

Also if you dont take a risk and go for it, he might get tired of waiting and go to some other girl, which will make you uncomfortable and heartbroken. Be strong and independant and do what your heart tells you. [ tammyb's advice column | Ask tammyb A Question ]
