i became friends with my friend not too long ago. He and i became "best friends". recently, he asked me out. it took a long time but i said no. he became a bit "emo" but i thought it was temporary. we became back to how we were and he asked me out again. once again i said no. now, he doesn't want to talk to me..he will..but i can tell he doesnt want to. he seems happier with his friends..so i don't really talk to him either...however...he's not as happy as he used to be..even with his friends. he seems really sad. is there anything i can do?

I only see him as a friend..i've already told him that. He was sort of like this when his ex girlfriend dumped him, but i was the one to help him, but now it hurts trying to help him.

He sounds a bit depressed. Although I doubt there's anything that you, as a friend in this situation, can do to help him. Perhaps alert others to his situation and ask that they help him either get some help, or encourage him to find positive interests.
Perhaps, they can help him get with the one thing he wants - a girlfriend that he trusts and loves and who feels as strongly for him as he does for her.
You can't make things be better for him, but you can try help others to help him, and that way showing (in a distant kind of way) how much you do care. Whether he appreciates it or not.

Your friend has a crush on you, which may be why he is your "best" friend now. You rejecting him has hurt his feelings and he doesn't know what to do yet. He probably thought you felt the same way. He may get over this with time, but in all likelihood, your friendship will never be the same.

it is were given something to do with a unusual and delightful double common it is reinforced by technique of non secular propaganda. Society has very solid non secular undercurrents, and as such, homosexuality is seen as incorrect and sinful. The double common subject matters come from the glaring incontrovertible truth that acquaintances, for some reason, detect it creepy and extraordinary that a buddy of the similar gender might want to have recommendations or factors of activity in the course of them, at the same time as any guy or woman might want to have not were given any qualms with a buddy of the alternative gender who felt the similar subject matters about them. by technique of using double common, it is also a by technique of-man made from this non secular undercurrent, all of us is tempered to believe that homosexuality is faulty and react to it with difficulty, hatred, and cruelty. it is gloomy that global places that are civilized notwithstanding have such recommendations of animosity in the course of those who're diverse.

Seems like the only thing that would work would be go out with him.For him to risk rejection he must have really liked you and thought you had some of the feelings.If you dont go out with him explain to him that you do not want to risk the friendship yall have

They same exact thing happened to me, all you have to do is give him time. Although you may not be the best friends that you were, he will eventually realize that he would enjoy having you around as JUST his friend then not talking to you at all :-)
**Good luck**

not really.. if you get really close again he is gonna think you like him and it will just set him up to get hurt again.. give him time to come araound.. and when he does then tell him you just want tobe friends and thats it so if he cant handle that then you cant be friends

you should talk to him! i know that you might not want to, but if you want him to be happy like he was before, then talk to him. it sounds like you were the one that was making him happy...so youre the cure to his depresson!
p.s. if he askes you out again...tell him you already have a bf. i know that it might be a lie, but he will leave you alone about that.
