Question Posted Thursday February 3 2011, 11:43 pm
So Ive had the biggest crush on my best guy friend for a long time now. It really seemed like he liked me back but recently he's been different and today he was talking about a girl he wanted to ask to prom... He's like my best friend but how can we talk on the phone or text EVERY SINGLE day, and him not develop more feelings than friendship?? It actually broke my heart when he talked about the other girl... And I don't know what to do... I havent felt this shitty since when my last boyfriend dumped me and this guy has been the first guy since (almost a year) that i can talk to and not miss my ex... Please help me:( I hate this...I'm 15/F hes 16/M

Otherwise, it'll just hurt u more, when he looks at other girls, talks about other girls..see to him, you're his pal, his buddy! The thing is, guys are stupid, they don't see when girls like them, at all! Or, they choose not to see it..let's just say guys are extremely complicated! But remember, if you do tell him, 3 things could happen: No.1 The feelings are mutual, you too become the cutest couple ever! No.2 The feelings are mutual, but after some time, it doesn't work out, you break up, but you can't go back to being just friends after being so close, so the friendship is either over, or will never be like it was before. And No.3 He doesn't feel the same way, things between you turn awkward and the friendship is ruined.. now there is an option 4(but that hardly ever happens): He doesn't feel the same way, but you two put it behind you and return to being the best friends you were before...the reason why that never happens is because even if he doesn't feel the same, you still will, and being with him will probably hurt you and because guys freak at commitment and love and he'll just act weird around you, even if you somehow put your feelings aside, he'll always be scared that you could still have feelings for him! So, the question is, is he worth all this risk? Is your friendship worth risking? And sadly, that a question only you can answer!
