trouble with my male best friend
hi, i'm a twenty year old who is afraid to fall in love. I'm asian and live in a conservative catholic environment. I once lost the guy I loved to the calling of being a priest, i was soo catatonic then that when I finally recovered my friend asked me not to enter a relationship till I at least finish collage. That was back when I was a junior in high school now I'm a senior in collage and i think i'm falling for my best guy friend. the same guy whom i promised I won't fall for. I'm afraid that if i tell him it'll put a dent in our friendship and i value him too much to risk alienating him for he is too important to lose.

Well that is a tough situation. I guess If I was in your position I would have to weigh my options. A) Telling him which could either result in a new relationship with the amazing guy I think I am falling in love with OR it could make things awkward B) Not telling him and living the rest of my life wondering what could have been if I had and watching him possibly falling for some other girl knowing how much I like him
Now to me I would tell him. Love is all about putting your self out there and making your self completely vaulrable. Plus if he is a great friend then it wouldn't put a dent in your friendship. Love is amazing and completely worth it to me.
Now Speaking from personal experience I am dating my best friend going on 8 months now. We talking for a year and we both REALLY liked each other but we wouldn't say anything, too afraid of losing the other. In the end he got brave and told me that he liked me and that he didn't want things to be weird but he had to tell me... and look at us now. SO it can work--- trust me, Good luck inbox me if you need anything else,
