My guy friend that likes me stopped talking to me because another guy asked me out?
Im 19. Ive been getting to know this guy for the past 4 months (we met in class). We were texting almost every day & hung out on weekends. He found out that another guy asked me out. I didnt flirt with that guy or anything bc Im not interested. I did nothing to provoke that guy. Now, He has completely cut me off & stopped talking to me just bc some other guy likes me. Im REALLY mad. Why does a guy have to act like this?
Have you ever lost a friend (a guy) because he had feelings for you?
I think I am in a good position to answer this question.I developed feelings for one of my friends over the years of our friendship. One day I finally mustered the courage to ask her out and got shot down over a text message, "I don't see you that way".The only girl I have ever asked out, rejected me. Can't say, it didn't hurt.Then, feeling ashamed and afraid of ruining our friendship, I asked her to forgive me and not to talk to me for a while as it became real awkward.Acting mature I tried to bury the awkwardness and struck a conversation with her again, but this time she started ignoring me. Respecting her decision, I too decided not to bother her again.Almost 2 years passed. We were in the same class but never talked to each other.One day out of the nowhere, she sends a text asking me to meet her. I agreed and we met. Had an awkward conversation, no one talked about that incident. It served as an ice breaker.We started talking again, like nothing has happened between us, but, it wasn't the same anymore. I did not feel the excitement I used to feel earlier while texting her. But, some where deep down, I had a hope that things will work out.And you know what, they did.We are best of friends now. I understand that she doesn't want anything more than friendship. I would be lying if I say I don't have feelings for her anymore, but feelings don't walk away as easily as people do. I still care about her, probably, not in the same way as I used to. If anything , this incident made us more open to each other.So, don't worry. Your guy friend will come around. Just give him some time. Talk to him and try to make him comfortable. He ll eventually understand you.If keeping such friendship seems complex to you and you are ready to give up a friend who cares a lot about you over such a stupid thing, then I am sorry to say, that you were never ever friends in real sense.
My Best Friend cut me out of her life? Please I need help!?
Slowly over a year me and my BF grew apart. I tried so hard to keep into contact with her..she never responded if I was lucky I would get a text. We knew each other for 8 years...She doesn't want to talk to me anymore. She has made new friends. She was like a daughter to my mother. My whole family is taking this so hard.I am so depressed and stressed out. I have lost so much sleep over her I am always crying..I can only keep my mind off of her for 10 mins....I want to move on so badly. I told her I am not going to force my friendship on her....I still love her and she knows that. This was her choice. I feel so low and worthless now. Have you gone through this? How can I get over this?
Guy friend suddenly cut me off?
I am heartbroken over what seems to be the sudden ending to a friendship of 8 years. My best (well, former best) guy friend and I have been very close for a long time, until very suddenly about 5 weeks ago. One night I was at a movie with him and everything seemed normal. At the end we talked about plans for the week and getting together. When I didn't hear from him later in the week I texted him but was ignored. I just played it off as him being busy or whatever, although in our 8 years of friendship he has only forgotten to text back maybe 3 times. I tried again to make contact later the next week and was met with a 2-word answer - very out of character. I tried over the weeks to make contact, check in, and suggest fun things to do but was met with silence or 1 or 2-word texts. He does have a long distance gf of 4 months, but I don't think she told him to stay away from me. In fact, I don't even think she knows much about me. Also, i know from social media that she is VERY close with a lot of guys, so much so that when I've seen her profile recently I've wondered if her and my friend are even still together. So it would be pretty hypocritical of her to tell him not to hang out with girls. Just a week before this sudden exit we were having dinner and when we left he said "this was fun! Let's go to the gym together this week." So really I had no warning as he seemed fine. Please help me shed some light on this:(
I resent my best friend?
My life has been kind of crappy lately. I've been single for about 8 months and have no romantic prospects, my hours at work have been cut back and I am barely making enough to live on, and in general, have been kind of down. I live with my best friend. He's a great guy, and I love hanging out with him, but lately, I find myself resenting him. He's 20 (3 years younger than me), and talks about how difficult his situation is, but I have a hard time believing him. He spent his summer teaching for two weeks (making $1500), and then went to North Carolina for two weeks to a beach house (with his family that is supposedly broke). When he got back home, he started mowing lawns around his rural hometown, works at a theater, and runs sound equipment for his county fair. In about half as much time, he's making about twice as much as I am this summer. In his free time, he hangs out with a girl he likes, and hooks up with other girls every so often. The last time he hooked up with a girl (July 4th), he decided afterwords that she'd be perfect for me, and that he would set me up with her. I'm not opposed to being set up, but I don't want to be with a girl he's been with. Lastly, I just feel like we're in two completely different leagues. He's attractive, musically talented, outgoing (all of the friends I have I've made through him), smart, funny, driven, and in general seems to have more luck in his life than I have in mine. I'm none of those things. At 23, I'm overweight and balding, have no discernible talents, am withdrawn and shy, am intelligent but ignorant, have no idea where I'm going in life (and the direction I'm headed isn't where I want to be), and have been stuck in a rut since I graduated college Last year (I've applied to and been rejected from over 150 jobs since then). How do I deal with the fact that whenever I spend time with him, I wind up getting down, but when he isn't around, I feel crappy and isolated?
Can a guy and a girl just be friends after kissing and making out?
Everything on the surface adds up to a perfect friendship: a balanced dynamic, always fresh with two unique sides and thought processes.Girls and boys can be friends, but they cannot be best friends. Here’s why:1. Sometimes in close friendships, caring gets confused for feelings.When you are best friends with someone of the opposite gender (assuming you are heterosexual), any action you take to show your friend how much you care can be passed off as a secret sign of showing affection on a deeper level.2. You always have to dodge the “Are you dating?” question.You want to go out to eat together and people assume you’re a couple. Doing things alone, just the two of you, isn’t weird for either of you, but to your onlookers, you appear to be an exclusive couple. Answering that question sometimes is followed with a “Why not?” which leads to further explanation of the dynamic of your confusing friendship.3. You never really know what they’re feeling.Is he secretly in love with you, despite denying the possibility? Are you secretly in love with him, even though you think you only see him as more of a sibling? Should you be secretly in love with him? Would it make everything fall into place—or would it destroy everything?4. You find yourself getting jealous.If your friend starts dating someone or spends more time with a new potential significant other, you might feel as though things are falling apart. You’re not necessarily jealous because you want to date him; you’re just jealous because you’re no longer the only girl in his life. You might also be jealous because you want what he has.5. Your relationship is held to a different standard than other friendships.Because of that unusual dynamic between the two of you, you expect certain things to happen and/or not happen. When these expectations aren’t met, they hurt worse than any of your other friendships.6. Both of your parents want you to get married.They even joke about it in front of you. It’s awkward.7. Sometimes you end up being let down.You hold your friend to a higher standard because the relationship is—on some levels—more intimate, even though it is just a friendship. Anything that may go wrong hurts twice as much because you feel as though you’ve lost more than any other normal friendship.Think Peacefully…
Husband Making me choose between him and my Male Best Friend?
I have been married for almost 4 years. I have been best friends with a male for 8 years. I love my husband, but I love my male b/f as well. My husband recognizes that my b/f and I have this bond/deep connection that no one understands because we have been through so much together. My male b/f is kinda of sleeps around meaning he has been with over 20 women. He hasn't been with one female over the 8 month mark. He just sleeps with them and then leave them. But he treats me differently then the other women. He told me that if he had the perfect girl and she didn't accept our friendship, he would kick her to the curb. I don't want to lose my husband because he is the best thing that has ever happen to me, but I want my male b/f in my life because I couldn't see it without him. Everyone is telling me to let him go because he is doing nothing with his life, but I'm the only one that understands him. I love him and he loves me, I don't know what to do, can anyone give me some advice please
