falling in love with a friend

October 4, 2009 11:16am CST
have you ever experienced this? Or even the other way around? how did you ever handle it? I had a friend before in highschool. He was one of my closest male-friends. And I never knew that he really likes me until I transferred residence to another province. We had communication through texting and even snail mails. It was then that he confessed to me his true feelings. Honestly, I was relieved that I transfered to another place so as to avoid facing him. It was kinda awkward.

ya it had happened once that i started developing some feelings towards my best friend.but the best thing i did was to give myself time.later i realised that he can be a good friend to me than anything else.so with time things resolved.infact now i feel that was the wisest decision i had taken .

Well, just go for it... As long as you overcome the awkwardness, the change in how you see each other, and how will your other friends accept it ...
