Although we haven't knew each other for a long time, I felt so connected to him that I've considered him as my own brother. I've been calling him bro, and I told him that I called him that cause I really think that he's like a brother to me.
But then last Sunday suddenly he told me to not call him 'BRO' again. What is he implying? I got the feeling that he probably don't want to get too close to me. He said that a 'FRIEND' is enough. It felt like he's creating a barrier between us, right when I feel that we're getting along so good. Starting from that day, I've lost interest in a good friendship with him, and haven't contacted him again. I tried to, but aborted to do it cause his words stuck in my head that I felt lazy.
Please give me good advice on what I should do know. Should I forget him cause he didn't really care for me that much? Or should I accept the fact and still befriended with him. Or should I do something else.... A good advice would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

Okay... to make things more obvious, I'm no good in friendship. I never could get along so fine with other people. I never had a best friend. This guy is the FIRST friend whom I feel so connected and felt so close. So I think of him like a brother cause I only felt this mutual connection with my own siblings.... NEVER with anyone else!

First we need to know all the particulars...Now, are you attracted to him? Maybe he feels a weird vibe coming from you and he is not down with it. On the other hand, is he black and are you white? If so, he may feel like you are calling him 'BRO' because you are moking a stereotype. My guess, either way, he does not feel like it is a sincerely genuine guy friend 'thang' that you are trying to give off. He doesn't trust your intentions, plain and simple.

You're making a mountain out of a molehill, BRO! Hey, if the dude is your friend and he's asking you not to call him "bro", then say, "no problem"...and go about your business. Where your friendship goes from here is in your actions. Be a good friend on mutual terms and respect his wishes. If he doesn't want to hang with you anymore, so be it. Don't be such a pussie worrying over this crap. Go play basketball or something, DUDE!
