A female United States age 30-35, *elleeashton writes:

I decided that I may want to be more than friends with one of my very close friends about five months ago and he didn't know what he wanted because he was hung up on an ex girlfriend who kept him waiting. I didn't know about that. I just didn't want to lose him, so I told him just friends would be better. Its not like I was madly in love with him I just never thought of him in that way and he is my best friend so I told him how I felt, it turns out hes liked me for years and everyone knew but me. Our friendship wasn't the same we spent the next three months with an akward friendship and it became too much for me to handle, I just wanted him back like the old days but it would never be the same so I told him I never wanted to talk to him but in a nice way, it just hurt too much that I ruined everything. He asked if we could be together and he didn't want to lose me and never realized how much I really meant to him, of course I agreed. Now I feel like everytime he looks at me he sees her, like he really wants to be with her. She wouldn't date him. I know he really cares about me, but what do I do? Am I right to feel like this?

MorganRenee agony auntI've felt that way with a lot of my relationships and I've learned to always give someone a chance. If you've gone through 100 guys who always lie to you....dont hold that against the 101st guy. You should really ask him...if that is in fact what is true. Bc assuming things like this does not help at all....bc most of the time its human nature to be ignorant {{not knowing}} about situations or to come out with a worst case senerio....But talk to him about it...and if he does think of her when he's with you...give him time to himself to decide what he really wants in life...as far as relationship wise.
