absence of affection


Question Posted Friday October 19 2007, 4:17 pm

I have a lot of guy friends, and they show signs that I see as affection. None but one has ever asked me out. I like these little signs of attention that others may not get, and I want it to go somewhere, at least in my mind. I imagine what it would be like date each of them, but in real life, I could never actually see myself actually hooking up with them. I love guys and love to hang out and chat with them (it's less drama than my girl friends), but I am nervous that my affection could be taken a way that I want it to be taken, but I know that I would never feel comfortable dating one of them. Does that make sense? I am super confused with myself.

You're making perfect sense, my friend has been in this situation once before. I agree with the person below, if you can't see yourself dating any of them, then I don't think it's the best idea. Unless something would change, as to where you could see yourself with one of them -- at that time, I would try something.

Do you think that maybe you just want that affection from a guy in general? And since you're super comfortable with these guys, you happen to imagine being with them? I really think that's what's going on, which is also perfectly normal, by the way.

Don't worry, I think you're making sense. =)

I think that it's great that you have all these guy friends you can feel comfortable and hang out with, but if you don't see yourself dating any of them, I wouldn't try.

I'd wait for that guy who comes along that you have feelings for and then try to date him, and who knows...maybe your guy friends can help hook you up with him. =D
Good luck!
