I can't tell if it's "just friends" or are we more? It's complicated.

Question - (29 June 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 29 June 2008)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Okay so I'm best friends with this guy. I've known him for about 5 years. A couple of years ago I told my friend about how I liked him and she ended up telling him. I asked him to a dance around the same time, and he of course accepted. It ended up he couldn't go, so he wrote me a note to tell me. It said that someone had told him that I liked him and he was sorry to say that he didn't feel that way about me. I was kinda upset about that and the fact he cancelled at the last minute. So i didn't really talk to him for a year. Time passed and I let it go, moved on for a while. Had a boyfriend, then rekindled our friendship. I found out we had a class together earlier this year. Once we became friends again I asked if the note still remained the same and he said "yeah, sorry :(" However, our friendship has really grown in the past year. We hang out all the time now. Usually in groups of 3 or more people, but he hasn't said no when I've asked to hang out just the two of us. His response is always "Sure, cool." The more we hang out, the more I begin to realize how much I like him again. We make fun of each other all the time. I usually talk to him online everyday and he calls if we don't talk that day. Recently he went away to a camp for a week and ended up calling me everyday. I missed his calls a few times and his voicemails were always like "Hey I'm bored. I just wanted to talk. So call me back when you get this message." When he got back from camp he asked if I missed him. My response was "of course haha." Then I asked if he missed me and his response was "yes, I definitely did." I just came back from the beach and decided to try the same thing, so I asked if he missed me and he replied, "of course!" We're best friends now, and that's where it gets complicated. I can't tell if it's a "just friends" thing or if he really does like me. What do you think?

i agree with the first post, let him make the first move.

and yeah, it looks like he likes you:) lol, over time friendships grow into something more, and mabye he just needed that time to realise how special you really are to him:) just keep going, the closer you get, the more his feelings will become clear, believe me nearly everytime a guy is best friends with a girl, he likes them@:)

good luck anyway really hope things work out for you

Oh, to probe the mind of a boy, life would be much simpler Dear Lady. I myself wold let him make the first move, if he wants more that just firind status. He has already told you twice, that he likes you just as a friend. So don't jeprodize the friendship by making any moves. And to have him as your bestfriend is awsom, it can always grow into something else with time.....All my Prayers are with you Dear One. God Bless!
