More than Friends

Have you ever experienced that your relationship with the opposite gender can be more than friends? Sometimes if both of you feel the same, then no problem. But there are times, the other person just want to stay friend with you and it really hurts.

This is why we need to make sure we stay in our spot, not to go beyond the friendship line, unless we can take the ''turn down''.

@atoz1to10 That is true. But sometimes we can get off guard and before we know it, we already have this strong liking to our friend. Have you experienced it?

Sorry to hear that. But, I haven't experienced that so far. The good side is, you and that person, can still be friends. You can still hang-out, if you want to.

@rachz_kisses I had a friend who fell in love with me. He insisted himself to me for many years until I have no choice but to stop our friendship. I do not feel anything for him until now.

@annierose ...And when you told him how you felt, he didn't feel the same way now? Well, could it be that he was hurt the first time you rejected him and he wants you to feel the pain. But then again, I could be wrong.

I am currently experiencing something quite similar. I really am into this guy,but at this current moment in time we are just friends,but there is the potential at I believe to be something more. I am not rushing anything or pushing the issue just going with the flow to see how things turn out. It's all you really can do because you don't want to scare the other person into thinking that you are needy or clingy. If it has been longer than a year or so I would definitely at some point expect to have a conversation about it though,

I see friends as only friends....if the other person is not seeing that way, it's their wish..or problem whatever. Lol

@prashu228 I see that as a problem. It becomes a nuisance if the person is always insisting himself to his friend to love him/her more than a friend.

I don't think I see myself doing that in these past few years.

I have experienced it both ends, that is, sometimes I wished for more than friendship and on other occasion people wanted more with me but it couldn`t happen. Yes it hurts, but we must accept that forcing into a relationship would not make anybody happy. I don`t believe in "give me a chance, I will make you love me". It happens once in a million years. Either there is mutual love or there is not. You can not make it from something else. That is why love is so unique, so precious and irreplaceable. That is why we must keep on searching for the right one.
