I am completely in love with my best friend. I can talk to him about anything and he always makes me feel better when I have a bad day. And sometimes I think he feels the same way, but then other days I’m not so sure, and then there is the problem that we now live 6 hours apart. There are times when I want to tell him but I don’t want to risk our friendship, it’s too important to me, I don’t know what I’d do without him.
I can SOOO relate with you! I fell in love with my best friend as well…before we started going out i was so confused about his feelings for me…I had a feeling that he felt the same but I also had an even more strong feeling that he didn’t! So my friends got fed up and gave me a deadline to tell him I liked him or else they would do it themselves! So I sucked it up…and decided to go for it! I ended up telling him how I felt and before I did…I thought to myself… if he’s my best friend..he won’t care if I like him..i know that our friendship means just as much to him as it did for me! So I took the risk and confessed my feelings for him..turned out that he liked me too! So I say GO FOR IT! :D tell the guy you like him..take the risk..there is that great chance that you can be something more :D if you don’t…you’re gonna regret it! And that’s the worst feeling ever!
To anon, I’m in the same situation and have been for three years. You’ll find that you will keep in touch with the people that matter. I have kept in touch with my two best friends, and just a couple other close friends. Plan skyping sessions, text a lot (even about stupid stuff), and just see them whenever they are home. If they are good friends, you’ll keep in touch. And if you don’t keep in touch, and it isn’t bothering you, then it’s probably for the best anyways.
Thank you other anon x)
