last night was incredible. let me just say that.
my best friend who i've known since i was 7 and i....well we spent the night at our elementary school playground...we got there at 8 and didn't leave til 11:30. We just stayed and talked about all of our memories from when we were little and how we should have been friends then. We've grown up together. And well, last night was different. I took his phone as usual (we always mess with eachother) and I put it in my bra as a joke...and somehow that kinda lightened the mood. He was acting strange....not as shy as usual. I learned that he's attracted to me. Somehow we ended up embraced in the passenger seat of his car....I was kinda leaned into him and he kept making little comments about my "little nose" and kept going on how he likes my nose?? I don't even know. But last night just felt weird....it got physical kinda but no kissing or actual cuddling or anything.
But yeah, I can't have anything with him...he's my best friend but I know I have some feelings for him somewhat. It would just complicate things if we became more because he dated my other best friend (we've all known eachother forever.) He's my BEST FRIEND. what am i thinking?!
tomorrow's july 4th and this guy who i've had a fling on and off with...well we're spending it together and my best friend will be there. I do like this guy...i have feelings for him and i know they're real.
but then there's my best friend and I don't know what to do.
maybe i should just tell the guy I have a fling with that I can't commit to anything yet because I dont know what i feel but i do like him? i dont want to cause him too much bc his grandmas dying and i think that we need to spend tomorrow together. we ghave something. i just focused this post on my best friend mostly because im confused about it. maybe i was horny?? ughh help please.
ughh.

I understand you that you are afraid to be more than just friends. that fear is natural. But a relationship that holds great risks offers the greatest gains.

So choose. You must risk feeling silly and awkward If you want everything he has to offer. or you can shy away from him and leave you both feeling devastated.

Be careful...best friends are tough. Im currently dating my best friend, tomorrow makes 6 months actually, but it scares me that if something goes wrong he is gone...

Use ur head but listen 2 ur heart

Okay. Girlfran, you got toooo many emotions going through your head...and heart...right now. So, when you have the 2 guys together, you need to figure out what the situation is. If you think what you have with your friend could grow into a relationship, consider ending the "fling." Personally, I don't like flings because they tend to lack the emotional connection. It's going to be tough either way you deal with it, but there's just no easy way out of it. If he's your friend and you have to hurt him, he may not understand. Or, he might, but he just won't stop trying. This may be one of the tougher things you've ever had to do, but it's necessary to keep all hell from breaking loose. Trust me, I know from experience.
