Question - (28 December 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 28 December 2009)
A male United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hey everyone. I'm in need of some female opinion. Will take male opinion too if you wish. Ok long story short. I have a girl for a best friend who I am very much in love with. She knows all about this and though she says she doesn't want the same she let's me be affectionate with her as much as she feels comfortbale. I know she loves me even if its not the same as I love her. I am always caressing her face and telling her she is beautiful. I would never try to pressure her to do something she doesn't want to do. So I need to know how to interpret something. The other night we were saying goodnight and I did something I haven't ever done before. I took my thumb a moved across her lips. Our lips ave never touched and I have only kiseed her cheek. Anyway as I moved my thumb across her lips for a few seconds she was just quite. Then she let out a little laugh. Not a snicker and I didn't get the impression at all that she was laughing at me. I am looking for opinions on what that laugh may have communicated to me. if I had to classify it I would say it was more of a shy type laugh. I have known this girl for a few years and we have grown in the past year. So I'm just looking for women who might offer insight to interpret what this might have meant based on your own experiences or thoughts. Thanks

Blod agony auntMy best bet would be that she was trying to break the silence afterwards. It sounds like she might not have known how to respond and that she was nervous. So then she'd try to break that by laughing.

Either that or she was laughing because she thought you were sweet or cute.

It's quite difficult to interpret but that's what I'm guessing it'd be. Hope I helped.

blueyedgirl agony auntI don't know your friend so I can't speak for her, but if I were in the same situation, I would probably laugh also... not because anything is funny, but more because I feel self-concious and am not sure how to react. I don't know if anyone else has that problem but, when I am unsure how to deal with a situation, I often laugh. If that is the case, it probably isn't an indication of her feelings at all, just that you caught her off guard and she didn't know what to do next. It could be that she didn't like it, but didn't know how to tell you, or it could be that she liked it more than she would have expected, and was suprised by her feelings... the only way to really know is to ask her.
