Even if you are not in love with your guy friend, that doesn't mean it's totally free and clear to swoop in and date you.
The guy who spends the most time with you has dibs on you. Nobody can date you without cucking him, and a lot of guys won't do that just on general principles.
This is why it's always so complicated for a guy and girl to "just be friends." Whoever you spend all your time with is who you belong to. Even if you don't see it that way and even if your guy friend genuinely doesn't see it that way, EVERYBODY ELSE DOES.
Nobody wants to come in and be the third wheel or try to turn your friend into a third wheel either, and if you meet a guy who doesn't care about hurting your friend, guess what? He won't care about hurting you either, so that's not better.
Yeah it's not a good feeling because you think you've blown your chance, but If I were you I wouldn't go straight in and ask him out, maybe talk to him or pop up somewhere and start talking. Then you see if he likes you rather than go out thinking you'll get on but have different interests and it could be awkward
Man he knows you're not dating him. The moment you make your move, he'll figure it all out. I swear this ain't rocket science.
It doesn't bother me, I'm too busy looking at her...
It's a thing we consider, especially if we like the girl.
Pushes me away, personally
