    hi there,

    i have been friends with a guy for two years and we get on so well always takin the mick but havin great conversations we just get on so well, thing is i like him more than friends and i have told him how i feel he said he just wants to be friends and we still are, thing is still like him and do believe that he is the same way just scared to admit cos hes not the type to be tied down. when things get intense between he always pulls back at the last minute, like hes afraid to do anything.i cant get out him out of mind and i feel like there is some sorta connection between us but all this waiting around is killing me, if anyone could offer advice it would be greatly appreciated

    If you've told him how you feel and he's not reciprocated I don't think you should wait around forever. It sounds a bit like you don't want to accept the fact that he may not feel the same way but you have to accept that it is a possibility.

    Obviously we don't know the situation as well as you do, but he very well could have any number of reasons for not wanting to pursue things. Maybe he just gets on well with you and the reason he pulls back is that he knows you like him, and he doesn't want to lead you on?

    To be honest, it doesn't sound like there's much chance of anything happening here. I mean if I liked a girl that way and she told me she did too, friendship or not, I'd go for it every time. I think most guys would.

    It seems like this guy is treating you fairly. You told him how you felt, he said no and he's not letting anything happen that would confuse you or lead you on when it would be very easy for him to enjoy the attention.

    Sorry.

    Yeah it seems like i will just have to get over him, its better to have him as a friend than loose him altogether i suppose, thanks for the advice grand master

    People arent always what they seem and some take more time about things.

    I'm not sure how these post things work but here it goes, sorry if I have posted it in the wrong place

    I'm in pretty much the same situation as the first poster, I really do like my friend and I told him, how I felt, same thing just wanted to be friends but then I catch him looking at me, any excuse to visit me ya know things like that, we do a lot of things together practically boyfriend and girlfriend minus the intimacy part, I find it hard to see other people cos all I can think about is him and how it should be him there, I hear ya sister
