Eric


Question Posted Sunday July 15 2007, 12:25 am

Okay i asked another question about my friends boyfriend and how he hit on me and all that and how Eric kicked the crap out've him. Well last night Eric told me that he liked me and that everything his friends told me about him liking me was true. And I didn't know what to say so I was a idiot and said Okay. I think i hurt his feelings cuz he left sortly after.. well the a couple hours ago I was talking to rachel and she was like omfggg are u serious you should soo go out with him. And I love him. And i like him and I loved the fact he kicked kiles ass for grabbing mine and I was soo flattered but I thought he did it because were best friends not because he liked he.(even tho thats good too):) but is there a time when you cant go out with your best friend?? I want to but what if we broke up it would ruin our friendship and I dont want that to happen i mean everyone has said were ment to be together but is that true?

Hi. I remember your other question actually. :] Hmm, well I can understand you only said okay, lol. You were obviously quite unprepared for that and if you explain that to him I'm sure he will understand so don't worry about it. :]

The hardest part about two friends starting to see each other as a couple is that they could lose the friendship aspects of things especially when/if there's a break up. And sometimes no matter how much you tell each other that you will try work it out and stay friends it just doesn't work that way be it jealousy later on (when one or the other starts seeing someone else) or from just the pain of being around each other if the breakup was only one sided. It can put a big strain on the friendship afterwards. Saying that though you have to remember no relationship is a guarantee thing, every relationship has a 50:50 chance of going well or not going well. It will either work out or it won't, the best you or anyone can really do is give it their best shot. He cares about you obviously and you said yourself it's not a bad thing so by all means I'd say go for it and see how things go. Take things slowly and see how things are as a couple instead of as just friends and see if things work out. If you are scared of what could happen to your friendships though as a result then I think the best thing to do is sit down with Eric and talk to him about it. Ask him about it and what would happen to the friendship if you both ever ended up breaking up on bad terms (to say it would never happen is ignorance because it can happen no matter how much you convince yourself it won't). As long as you both are friends enough to be able to say if things don't work out either can back out without any hard feelings then by all means go for it. It's either that or do nothing and forever wonder what might have been. I don't think there's any rule to say friends can't go out, in a way it's not such a bad thing at all because friends often know each other well enough to be able to connect in that way but obviously the only downside is what happens if things don't work out. As for people being meant for each other - I can't really comment on that but I will leave you a quote that says what I think when it comes to who is meant for who. :] Goodluck on things with you and Eric and if you both do decide to see each other as a couple then good luck and I really hope things work out with you both. :]

Well this happened to me actually just last month. My BFF Fred kicked some guys ass for making fun of me. I thought he was my hero. Then he asked me out a while later. I was scared just like you. But i went for thinking everything would be alright. I mean my gal freinds said we where a "match made in heaven". So we went out and then he broke up with me.

Our friendship didn't change. I think it got better. Of course it did take about a week for he and I to get over it.

But it really all just depends on the boy. If he really likes you he will go out with you and won't stop likeing you just because you broke up. And if he does it's more likely that he didn't like you that much to begin with.

*hope i answerd ur question!*
