    I met this lad a few months ago, we got on great, and "clicked". We met over a mutual problem I am currently going through, and something he had gone through. He gave me loads of support, and advice on the issue, and met me to discuss the problem.
    Apart from the similiar problem over which we met over, we got on great, and were chatting online for hours and hours over a few months. He had previously broken up with his fiance, and was single at the time. We became really close, and he knew alot about me, and he confided in me also, and we had become really good friends.
    The problem I had, and still have is really effecting me badly, and am doing my best to deal with it and resolve it. We had a conversation online a while ago, I had a few drinks, and for some stupid reason, copied the entire online conversation, and accidently sent it to him...........
    That was a few months ago, a month later, he got back with his ex, and has become distant. I have to say I really miss him, and I think I may be in love with him.
    He is back with his ex, and I wish him all the best, I want him back as my friend, and I miss him. I think the fact that the conversation we had online was copied to him by accident by me, and now because of that I think it has effected our friendship.

    I really like him, but would never do anything to say or do to interupt his relationship with his ex that he is currently trying to sort out. What can I do to get him back as my friend?

    Paragraphs have a full blank line between them. If you want people to read your post, at least do that.

    There is no need to be rude. I would appreciate some advice rather than some comment like that

    Him being distant is probably more a factor of him being back with his ex than you copying an online conversation to him.

    He probably had some sort of interest in you as well, which is why he's cooled it now that he's back with his ex.

    Basically, leave it lie. You don't want him as a friend, you want a relationship with him. You didn't make a move when you had a chance, and have now convinced yourself that friendship is better than nothing. It's not, it will keep you in painful limbo and prevent you moving on to other relationships.
