My best friend (for a few years) and I have recently fallen head over heels for each other - we were not expecting this at all - we truly care and adore each other but we decided that right now is not a good time in our lives to have that serious relationships we long from each other. He's been STRESSED with financial/schoo/work - as for me too but we're still great friends. For as long as I've known him, he's ALWAYS been the guy i go to whenever weird guys would always hit on me.
So because of recent events (wanting to move on and build more on our friendship), i said, "heeey dude, there's this dude that's been interested in me but i think he's nasty. awww this is sooo cute! Everything's going to be normal again - alot of guys will hit on me and you'll be the guy, my best friend i always go to so you can rescue me! and maybe in a few years i might just fall in love with you all over again..."
he said, "uhh yeah..."
sounded kinda bum...
does he still like me?

Well, I'm sure he has the same feelings for you. But if I told you he wasn't bummed I'd be lying. Even if he knows that the best thing right now is to not have a relationship...he still wants it inside. I am in the same situation....but I am a guy. We have been friends just like you guys, and have fallen in love...but realize a relationship wouldn't be a good idea at this point in time. However, every time she tells me that "she is glad I understand, we can be no more than friends right now" it kills me inside. Anyway, I'm sure he feels the same way...but I'm sure it sucks for him. So the best thing would probably be to let him know how you care, and reassure those feelings, yet at the same time make it understood that the only reason you aren't together is the fact that it would make it harder in the long run. Anyways, I'm sure you've read enough, I hope that can help. If you need anything else get a hold of me at "Tearsoftherose5@aol.com".
Good luck,
Tom

lol. Dont worry, im sure he still does. There could possibly be a hint of jealousy because you mentioned other guys hitting on you, but im sure he still likes you. He might also want to be more than friends. Why do I think that? Its because you mentioned the both of you being good friends and his response was "uhh yeah...". If you analyze it, it does actually sound like he as a thing for you. It wouldnt hurt to ask him how he feels about you. You never know, he may actually like you in a way that is more than a friend. Dont take my word for it, its just a possibility.

I am wondering how you went from head over heels to "does he still like me?" I would ask him...maybe the way you phrased that kinda freaked him out a bit. You are basically telling him "you know other guys want me, so get on with it." That wont work well in the long run.

I think that HE thinks that you're taking advantage of him, but I've been wrong before. Maybe he wants you to try being more responsible about your relationships because you're always needing him to "rescue" you. Still, I think he likes you; he's just having problems with how you're handling the relationship, because it smells like manipulation. Trust me, I've been in his shoes, and I know what it feels like, too.

after probably putting him through torture emotionally , does she like me as more than a friend or does she not? after struggling with both of those he probably got himself in the right mindset to say hey we are just great friends then boom you drop the flirtation lines on him now he is confused !! you need to be up front with him let him know how you feel most friendships end up to be great relationships so keep real with the guy,.

I am stuck in the friends zone, and unlike the endzone, there is no scoring and no half time making out shows with the cheer leaders.
go home, get down
BOOMA BOOM
