Im sad because, well, I was stupid enough to let myself fall in love again, with a friend (my best friend actually) and the last time this happened (with a different friend, who I had grown up with) we ended up on really bad terms, so Im pretty much scared to death right now.
But I wont get into that. There are far too many girl threads on this board, and Im not about to start my own.
You just gotta go with the flow. Tell him/her how you feel. If it really bothers them and they don't want to be friends because you told them, then they don't deserve to be your friend anyways.
I've had a friend that I "liked" and I told her upfront, and we are really close friends still. Not bed buddies or anything, just now we both feel we can confide in eachother things we won't tell anyone else..
Its a little more complicated than that. For one, while I would love to be in a relationship with her, I dont want to do anything that would jeopardize our friendship. If we got into a relationship, and it took a turn for the worst, where would I be? She is the one who helped me through it the last time. I dont have anyone who could be there for me if I ruin this with her. Plus, right now, shes involved with another guy, and I like him, and I think they are good together.
I tought about telling her anyway, just to get it out of my system, but...well....these lyrics explain that better than I could:
I've nothing to lose
I've everything to gain
And I'm not abandoning
All fear
Isn't life too short for shyness?
The times I've talked myself into
Telling you, decided to
Then I see you
And just think I can't do this
I cant lose her, and Im afraid that if I tell her, that I will.
