I'm just wondering about this.
I've known my best friend for about 12 years now, and we've probably been best friends for about 8 years... I spend most of my time with him, and I talk to him everyday...
I used to think he was gay, but he told me 2 years ago that actually he has been in love with me for many years, and the reason I've never seen him date a woman is that he compares everyone else to me and finds them wanting...
The problem is I don't find him attractive at all. I love him to bits platonically, and I don't want to hurt him but I don't want to lose him either... but I'm getting increasingly aware that I'm kind of using him - I know that he'll do anything I ask him to and he does...
Despite the fact that I don't want to, and I know that he would get really upset, should I tell him we shouldn't see each other any more. He's 31 now, and never dated anyone because of me... he's throwing his life away.
Advice? Please don't judge me - I do love him but am not attracted.
