I liked a guy and asked him out and he turned me down, but we talked everyday for 8 months and now he tells me that he doesn't  want to be my boyfriend but rather friends. Was i wrong for thinkin that would could have had something?

Not at all. It's never a waste when a great friendship has flourished. \nAfter investing 8 months of your lives, I'm sure you have both found that you are great friends. Am I right? It's possible that rather than lose you due to romantic involvement, he would rather keep you as his friend... It's rather common....\n\nAdvice,\nAlways beware. It's very easy to fall into the "friend zone". Be upfront about what you want and expect without being scary and demanding...

what is the question here? you liked him, you had your friend ask him out, he said no. Seems pretty open and shut. Move on

maybe when he said yes to your friend, it meant he would say yes if YOU yourself asked him.  Guys get all weird when girls use eachother to get boyfriends. If your friend said he said he would go out with you, then you should've gone ahead and asked him.  Give him a break, the whole 'thru the friend' stuff is not dating-worthy.  Next time, go ahead and ask. Im not saying you'll get a definite "yes".\nhave a great day!

Don't expect anything concrete from this guy first.  looks like he's way too confused about what he wants to settle down.  Just agree when he says he doesn't want a relationship.  If saying "let's just be friends" riles him up, forego it.

I'm going to be blatently honest with you.  If this guy has gotten to know you already and still declined dating, then he's just not interested in you.  he'd make room for dating if he liked you like that.  However, if he doesn;t know you very well, actively try to start a friendhsip.  just put ti to him like this 'everybody has to have friends- it releives stress, and you can't have stress getting in the way of your schoolwork'.  if after he gets to know you he still seems disinterested, then either keep him as a friend or move on.

He just might not want to be in a relationship right now i would ask him. Its not you he obviously likes you if u hang out with each other so just ask him and don't be offended by the answer theres plenty of fish in the sea, and good luck

Sounds like a great friend. Don't rush things, it's better to have a great friend than an ex-boyfriend. If he decides to change his way of thinking and date friends, I'm sure you will be the one he comes to. but for now just be happy you can spend time with him.

You might have missed an opportunity.  It sounds like you asked him on a specific date, which was bad timing for him.  You should've mentioned that you could get with him another time when he wasn't busy.  Try asking him again.

He asked you out last year and you havent talked in 4 years?\nI didnt understand that.\nMaybe you meant 4 months so Im going to go with that, and say just call him and tell him that you were shocked he asked you out and you should of said yes. Us girls always change our minds, its ok. :)

you said he is a guy friend...so he is your friend.  \n\nit's like you are putting him in a situation which he does not want to be in.  it seems that you asked him that question because you want something more to come between you two.  do u? \n\ndon't embarass yourself to ask the same question over and over again.  once is enough....read between the lines.

been there done that, yes, no matter what u do, men still have their own mind set, if u think this guy isnt right for u just move on, even if u want to be friends he wouldnt want it to b friends he would always want more, that's what happened to me, so i just ended it all!!

Awww! I hate it when that happens... \nMaybe he just wasn't good enough for you...\nI don't know what you told him but possibly, something that you told him about your personal stuff made him think that you're not the right one for him... I don't know! \nDon't worry about it. It was just a date! Move on... there's plenty more fish in the sea :)

he was mad that you didnt make a decision right  away because he probaly feels that if you thought he was important to you that a quick yes would have easily occured, maybe he realized that you guys were better off as friends and just wanted to still keep some form of a relationship with you, even though i think that after he broke up with you that you really shouldnt be his friend, he had no concern about your feelings about it before making the decision before hand...

My bestfriend was a guy and we started out like you but I was the one in your position.. my friends didnt want me to date him b/c they wanted him. Then one day things clicked and we've been together for two years. I say Screw your friends listen to you.

He could be trying to say no in a nice way.  (Sorry!!!)  I had the same thing happen to me.  I asked a guy out and he said we would...sometime.  Next thing I know, he's "kinda got a girlfriend".\nGuys are jerks when they try to be nice.

Not necessarily.  He probably got scared off.  May be he is interested but perhaps you sounded pretty serious for your relationship.  Give him a little time, but don't close all the doors.  Meet new people (just friends) you don't know what might happend nex

He might be just as shy as you are.  I hate to say it, but you may have to be brave to get what you want.  Introduce it as something casual - not a date.  Like ask if he wants to go hang out doing something you both like to do.  The best relationships go slow and start as friends.  Good luck.
