Me and this guy have been friends for about 6 months now, and he is just the awesomest guy I know! A little over a month ago, I broke up with my old boyfriend, and this guy was there for me and took me out to ice cream and made me feel better! I knew I enjoyed hanging out with him, but it wasn't until my Spring Break that I really realized how much I cared for him.
Over spring break, I went home, and he stayed where we go to college. But he drove 4 hours to come to my home town and we had so so much fun! He even put his arm around me, so I started to feel like he liked me too.
Since we have gotten back, we have gone out every night. The way he looks at me is just the most amazing thing ever, and I swear I have never felt this good before. We sat in the car and he told me how he had so much fun with me over spring break, and that it was just the greatest day, and how awesome I was, and he even told me I was cute! I really started to like him at this point... He is seriously amazing!
This morning we got together again, and he taught me how to change my oil! It is kind of silly, but I just had the best time. He had never really broken the "touch barrier" before, but he like touched my hair, my hands, we laughed when I would do something stupid, and at the end of it all, he helped me get all cleaned up.
I guess the point of all of this is, I think I am falling in love with him, and up until this evening, I thought he was feeling the same way!
The issue is...he is going on a date tonight. With another girl. I mean, I have hung out with other guys during all this too, but I knew how I felt about them compared to Alex. So he is going somewhere with this girl, and now I just don't know. He really is a good guy, I know he wouldnt play me or anything, so I just need to know. Does he really like me, or am I somehow reading into this wrong?
Thanks for reading! I know it was long!!

smartnsassy answered Monday March 26 2012, 11:23 am: Hello! As I was reading your story, I remembered I was in a similar situation. When I broke up with my ex-boyfriend, my best guy friend was there for me. I spent all my time with him even though he lived 4 hours away...I still went to go see him. I thought I was falling in love with him also. I loved the attention, but one day he also went on a date with a girl. I was so hurt and confused and things got messy. Now I feel that I lost such a wonderful friendship because I let my feelings get in the way. My point is, you never know, maybe he is someone you're supposed to be with, but you need to consider that once you break the friendship and become more than that...it's very hard to go back to how things were. You might not be able to have that same person to comfort you again. I would really consider meeting other people and seeing if you feel the same. Since you broke up with you bf and right after starting hanging out with this guy friend, it could be that he is just a filler for the void you felt when you broke up with your bf. Make the effort, when youre hanging out with other guys, to remember that Alex is just a friend so that you can focus on getting to know other people instead of comparing them the relationship you have with alex. i hope this helped..i know it's long..let me know if you have any questions :) [ smartnsassy's advice column | Ask smartnsassy A Question ]
