Alright, so there's this guy. I've known him since like, 1st grade, and we've been best friends ever since. And, growing up, I know he's had minor little crushes on me.
But we went to different high schools, and drifted just a little, but we remained friends, and now in our college years we're still as close as ever. I go to him about every guy and/or hookup I have. He comes to me with the same issues he may have with girls. He's just the greatest guy, and I love our friendship and I love him, as my best friend.
Well, these past couple months have been kinda strange with him.
Like, I've been noticing that he's there for me for EVERYTHING. Not that its bad, but I mean, he'll drop whatever he's doing to do whatever I ask of him. Like, I can call him at like 4am, drunk, and across town, and ask him to pick me up and take me home, and he'll do it. Doesn't matter if he's sleeping, or with his friends, he just does tons of super sweet things for me. And I just thought, hey, he's my friend and he really cares about me.
But lately. I've been hearing from his friends that they think he's in love with me. And that he has been for a long time.
And I don't know what to believe, but lately, when him and I text, he's been asking me questions like,
"Am I boyfriend material?" "Could you ever see us together?" "Do you think you could see yourself hooking up with me?" "What would you say if I told you I liked you?
and telling me stuff like.
"You're the only girl that means something to me." "You're the only girl who gets me." "I hate seeing you with all these asshole guys who don't know a fraction about you like I do." "I'd never treat you like anyone less than extraordinary."
And every time I go out to party, he'll text or call me to see if I've been drinking, and to see if I make it home okay. And if he doesn't hear from me, he always asks me if I hooked up with anyone.
I don't know what to think about him anymore. He keeps bringing up us "getting together" but very subtly, and when I tell him I love him as my best friend, and that my feelings for him are platonic, he says, "oh ya that's how I feel too."
And, I know if him and I got together, it'd be a good thing. He's the best guy I know. But I've never seen him as more than a friend, and I'm not willing to risk what we have now. And I've told him, maybe in a couple years or in the future I'll see him that way. But as of right now, I like it just how we are.
But I don't know what to make of this situation? What do you think?
I would have to say that I am in that situation right now but I'm the guy who likes the girl. I asked her out and she said she would rather be friends and I said that was fine because id rather have her in my life then not at all but I don't think I could get rid of the feelings for her. I just wished she would give me one chance.
I think you should talk to him about it face to face and if he really does like you tell him that you just want to be friends and maybe that you could see ur self later down the line going on a date cause honestly I don't think he will lose the feeling for you and will understand how you feel
