Girls, When you develop feelings for a close guy friend?

[Anonymous]

What should I do? We have a great friendship and I’d hate to lose it

Not weird. It is expected. If you didn’t fall for him, chances are he would’ve fell for you. But rarely do you fall for each other at the same time. But, don’t expect it to come together. That may happen very rarely; but, the reality is when someone enters into a purely platonic relationship, they aren’t looking for romance. You can take your chances and confess. But the greatest likelihood is the guy friend will feel just as weird and want to call a halt to your friendship. Or, if he has no scruples whatsoever, he may just decide to make good use of your feelings and partake of some samples. It is the certain path to a friends with benefits relationship. If you want to keep this friend, it’s best to never tell them. Let the feelings pass and hope you will still feel like being best friends afterwards. But, your best bet is not to enter opposite sex bestie friendships. They usually do not end well. And, it prevents you both from remaining friends if you each get other partners. The partners will not care to see you in their relationship as the fifth wheel.

Thanks, so we’ve known each other for about 2 years and we both compete in water polo for our college. He’s really sweet and we get along great, he also looking amazing in his speedo lol

Those are perks lol. What’s prompting you to have these feelings after this time tho? You haven’t felt anything prior in the 2 years?

He was dating another girl when we met, they’ve been broken up for 4 months now.

Yeah you should see his speedo, you can clearly see his big penis and balls bouncing around!

That last part made me spit my water😂
I’d say to assess your feelings, like if this is a romantic thing or you’re just having lust because of how good he looks to you. If you think it’s worth going for him, then go for it but just keep in mind it’s a risk!

[Asker]

Haha why did it make you spit your water? Are you picturing anything fun? Lol

I think he’s over his ex but I don’t know for sure

[Opinion Owner]

I had just laughed out loud that’s all lol also If they were serious then after 4 months it’s possible that he’s still not over her, or still in contact with her in “that” way. If you guys are close friends, could you ask him about that directly?

[Asker]

They only dated for 6 months so it wasn’t that long.

He doesn’t ever bring her up anymore.

Last practice I accidentally tapped his package when he was in the speedo

[Opinion Owner]

Hmm, well I mean that could be a good sign!

[Asker]

I think it hurt him a bit, I don’t know why it wasn’t that hard of a tap

That's always a stupid excuse, just do it.
