Yes, it sounds like you are...but I think almost all of us have had moments like that.  I know I have.\n\nI'd ask yourself how you really feel about her.  Do you miss her as a friend?  Were you wishing there could have been more than friendship?  Have you ever shared with her how you feel about her?

I think you should think about it and tell him if you are relly sure you want to. Does it seem like he feels something for you? If you break up or are rejected there is a possibility that your frienship will change. But it is not good to keep it to yourself because you might have a chance and if you dont tell him you might regret not taking the risk later on in your life.

Well if you like him as a friend then just tell him that you feel more comfortable being friends and that if he accepts that tell him that you'll ALWAYS like him like that again maybe but you just wanna be friends for now..\n\n\ngood luck

Tell him exactly what you are feeling.\nTell him you would like to still be friends but have concerns.\nTell him why you are concerned & explain quite simply that this can not continue to happen.\nTell him how it makes you feel and how you would NEVER do that to him...\nAfter saying this, listen to his reaction & proceed however you think is best.\nMy guess is things will change for the better, but this is up to you to decide. (If he really was a good friend, give him a chance to redeem himself and make things good again.)

If your not comfortable with it then just tell him how you feel if he is your friend then he will understand...

i would think that if you have known each other for that long and you have had a platonic relationahip he may not show anything at all to indicate to you how he felt. he may just hide it for fear of ruining the friendship. sometimes guys are really passive

Talk to him, let him know how you feel.  But also let him know that the friendship is very important to you.  So if he doesn't feel the same way (or is nervous/scared), then make sure he knows how much you value his friendship.

he's being straightforward to you and has been respectful to you. I think you should do the same, if he just wanted to be your friend, you should let it be.

Oh tough one. No wonder you are in a state of confusion.  If he is a close friend of yours anyway have you thought about suggesting outings and activities that are just for the 2 of you rather than with a group of friends. Spending more time alone with him should help you to gauge how he feels. He could be feeling exactly the same as you are and equally scared to say anything. Be patient. If you are meant to be together it will happen in the end but don't expect him to pick up on hints. In my experience men are remarkable dim in that department.\n\nGood luck.

Leave it at that and just be friends, maybe in the future it will turn to more but don't force it or you could lose his as a friend.

Tell him how you feel.  Otherwise you will miss your moment. If he cares for you at all (even as a friend) it shouldn't damage your friendship.  And atleast you would know if he feels the same way, and if he does (i'd say its a good chance) then you guys could patch things up and move on. Good luck to you sweetie.

wall u need to tell hem that Ur friendship means a lot to u. And u don't wont to Mass that up with mixed feelings of going out. And if he cant accept that than i should just walk a way.

This is always a tricky situation, and its often feared that the friendship might be ruined if the other person doesn't feel the same way. I think that if you two are 'best friends' and really close and have a healthy relationship, then if he doesn't feel the same way, maintaining the friendship should be easy.\n\nI think you should tell him and for all you know he could be feeling the exact same way, and having the same fears! So take the risk. If you don't then you are risking a really good chance to be with someone in a relationship that you really care for.\n\nPlan the right way to do it for you- whether that be on the phone, face to face, through a hand written letter, email or msn...whichever is best for you, the point is that you do it and get it out in the open of your relationship. \n\nJust remember of all the great possibilities, that's why you should do it.

ya i think he does but he doesnt want to admit it cuz he doesnt thinkn u feel the same way as he does and he didnt want to lose u as a friend so he didnt say anything

I would talk to him and tell how you feel. If he cares about you as much as you care about him he should take into consideration your feeling

Yes, you need to talk to him about how you feel.  Admit that you've tried to be ok with his friendship with this person but as much as you try you really aren't ok with it.  Your suposed to be his best friend now, not her and if your uncomfortable with the relationship he has with her he should be willing and want to end it in order not to ruin what you two have.
