I'm trying to make amends with my best guy friend. We could talk about ANYTHING and we used to hang out. I miss that so now I'm talking to him a lot more to get closer to him again. I've noticed this though.. Right before he goes to bed, I say "I wuv/love you" He really does mean a lot to me.
I have a boyfriend who tells me he loves me. But honestly, i don't love him. I take LOVE seriously. It's only been 3 months.. I've talked to him about this and I'll tell him when the feelings right ..when I'm ready. But this is my question: is telling some other guy that I "love" him.. bad?
My best guy friend.. we had a past together and we dated for over 13 months. My boyfriend knows about that.
Is this cheating of some sort? I'm so confused as to what it is..

Do you know if your best guy friend still has feelings for you? Because if there's any chance, then it's kinda bad. But if not, then whatever. Girl friends and guy friends should be the same. I say that to all my friends; they know I just mean it in a friendly way. Plus, the fact that he says "wuv" shows that he doesn't think a huge deal of it either.
Is your boyfriend the kind of guy who would care? If he is, try not to let him now(don't lie, but you know. Don't really tell him either.) But if not, then you might be able to let on. Don't just say it, but if he asks, or if you're talking about love, or friends, or anything and it comes up, cool. If not, whatever. [ andalixsays's advice column | Ask andalixsays A Question ]

I think the whole thing isn't a matter of right and wrong or black and white. It has that fine line in between or that 'grey area'. The thing is I don't see it as cheating or a bad thing at all, how can it be? I agree that you're only supposed to tell the person you truly love that you love them and you say it when you mean it but you can love more than one person right? Like your friends, family, your boy/girl friend.
Love between a family, friends and your partner are different forms of love even though the word is the same. You love your friend because of all the history, trust and so forth. You love your boyfriend because, well, the same reasons perhaps or because he makes you feel whole (eventually, if/when it happens that is). My point is just that the word is the same but the meaning (or should I say the actual feelings) are two different things. I mean I tell a few of my friends I love them too yet I could never see myself with them because I value and care about them as dear friends. Yet if/when I had a girlfriend I don't think I would be doing anything wrong in still tellingmy friends I love them - because me having a girlfriend doesn't change what they still mean to me as friends nor do I love them any less.
