Can you stay "just friends" with someone you're in love with?

[HouseMoat]

In my opinion, you COULD, but, you'd just be lying to yourself. Why do that?

[Beckybooboo]

I have a friend that went through that and it was a nightmare for her! There was a lot of jealousy, pain and anger she had toward him and any girl he dated. I actually think he got a kick out of it but ultimately, is was her fault. Finally, she fell in love with my brother! ❤️

[HouseMoat]

Is she dating your brother

[Beckybooboo]

Yes, they are actually are engaged.

[HouseMoat]

You were ok with a friend and a family member?

[Beckybooboo]

Definitely! If for some reason it doesn’t work out, it wouldn’t change how I feel about either of them. I’m friends with all my brothers exes. 😂

[HouseMoat]

I mean, you're supposed to be good with your family, that's a no doubter, but, friends are diff.

Why are you friends with all of them?

[Beckybooboo]

Because I liked them? If they screwed one of my brothers over, I wouldn’t remain friends with them but they didn’t. The break ups were mutual with no hard feelings.

[HouseMoat]

Who broke up with who and why

[NathanDavis]

I've been friends with two of my exes, yes... for years

but NO, we are not "still in love with each other" there's no romance, no left over, no lingering feelings...

we love out friendship yes, but we do not call it "love" we're just great friends and we have been that for more years than we ever were a couple in love, lol

[MiddleAgedClimbee]

I don't think I would want to even try that. By focusing on your ex, you might miss the opportunity to be with someone who made you even happier or was a better fit for you. Too much tunnel vision.

[laraWM]

Maybe because you don't want to stop seeing your friend

[Tharithi]

Are u in love?

[HouseMoat]

I don't know what love is

[exitseven]

nah, it would be torture every day.

[cherriibly]

I can't

[CharmedAngel69]
