Heartbroken by my best guy friend? Need help?

[Anonymous]

Last week my best guy friend and I confessed our feelings for one another. But recently a situation transpired and I wanted to address it with him, but other things came out of it as you can see below:

How can you love someone but not want to be with them? He said he never pursued me cause he’s “not shit”. When hearing all this it just doesn’t sound like he’s interested. We’ve been talking everyday for 8 months now, we’ve made ourselves vulnerable, we fall asleep on the phone together. We know each other like a book, we support one another, we get along so well, we fit like puzzle pieces... I just don’t understand. We have an amazing friendship but I’m hurting right now so I’m putting distance between us. Should I cut all ties with him? It hurts not to be his friend as well as being his friend.

Male female friendship is a complicated topic after feelings have been confessed.
My female friend never confessed feelings to me, but we were drunk, stone and horny... It took a long time till the friendship normalized.
Cutting all ties would be wrong decision.
let it cool a little bit down, if you don't want lose a friend

You can like someone but be mentally dealing with some things so you just don't think it's fair for the other person. Let things cool down but don't end the friendship. Give yourselves some time. He's probably scared of losing you as a friend

He's scared. Show him little patience but persist.
