Search Results: sexual tension between friends

Okay. So this is my friend of four years. There's always been some sexual tension between us. Three years ago he got a girlfriend and a year ago I got a boyfriend, so between that period we never crossed the line, but we still flirted intensely. Before those periods though, he use to touch me. During and before, he complimented me all the time. A year ago, we got matched up in the same classes after a year of being apart. He had his girl, I had my guy. I never really crossed the line because I felt that was unfair to my boyfriend, but my friends with benefits told me once that he saw us being in a relationship. We smoked together sometimes, once he told me he was hoping we'd just be shit faced and have an affair with eachother. He brought up motions of us being together. And shit.

I feel like he did that because he had his girl, so he felt safe saying that stuff, you know? But that's just my theory.

So my boyfriend and I split in January. He and his girlfriend in February . Soon after we kissed, and gradually moved up to sleeping with eachother.

Now. He NEVER brings up the thought of us together. He seems so terrified just at the thought of us being together. I can jokingly call him "Babe" and just in an instant he'd be like, "Don't call me that". Like relax man, I was just joking. LOL. But he calls other girls pet names jokingly, and has noooo problem with that.

I mean like. To be honest, the feelings have always been there. But I'm leaving for a four-year university in September. I'm sure it wouldn't work anyway. And he's one of my closest friends, so why do it if I'm gonna' probably end up losing him? I'm not attached to him. Usually when I have feelings it's like an obsession, but it's not like that with him. I just feel comfortable with him and the idea of not dating him doesn't phase me.

I have my theories, share yours. I like to hear other opinions.

I'm going to go see him tomorrow. Now that we graduated and no one's in our busniess, he'll probably be up front with me.

There's a guy who works for same company as me but in a different office, my friend thinks he likes me but I disagree. We are friendly and exchange emails a few times a day, but they are not really flirty more teasing and jokey in tone. he is chatty to me and friendly on the phone when he calls for work things and when he comes to my office. We go out for lunch together and my friend says that there is a lot of chemistry and sexual tension between us which other colleagues have also commented on. We have also recently started texting outside work, again friendly with nothing overtly friendly but he always responds to my text/email. My friend is sure he likes me because he is not as friendly or chatty to anyone else and she says when he is in the office with me he comes to talk to me a few times when it isn't necessary to do so. Thoughts?
