How Do you Handle Falling In Love With A Friend?

Hmm. That's something I've never done, especially since I have few male friends. However, in case that happened to me, I think I'll just take it cool: take things one day at a time. Enjoy the friendship, but try to get over the feeling. If he falls in love with me too, then well and good. But if he doesn't, I'll really try my best to move on. :) There's no sense in investing into a romance that won't lead to marriage. :p

honestly,i dont know how to answer that question..we're in the same situation..and its very hard to be in our track..its too risky!!

I have been there. I have four guy friends at work. Because we were all together at work because of a certain project, we were always together. Going to work together, having lunch and break times together and even going home together. I became closer to this one guy who were very sweet to me and another guy who was quite shy at first but we get along as time passed by. They call me Shan Sai (from Meteor Garden) because they said they were the F4 of the company. This one guy who were so close and sweet to me, I control my feelings for him. This is becauseI have so many responsibilities in our family and I need to prioritize them. Unfortunately he was just being sweet, he never propose what he felt for me until we finally bid goodbyes. they say falling in love is both happiness and sadness, but that is what life is all about anyway. While I was falling for him,i just control my feelings. I hide a sweet smile, and sometimes i pretend i do not appreciate what he done to me, like i kept blinded so that I will never fall.

easy. if you see hope go for it. if there is no indication of the same attraction forget it.

Actually, it depends upon my friend is available or not... I was in love with a certain guy for how many months and I thought that we'll end up as lovers since we're good friends but he remained a friend to me. I know he'll be happy with the girl that he really desires and I know that God has other plans in store for me so with all my heart, I practice forgetting my feelings for him.

it's either you keep your silence or be brave enough to tell him/her and take the consequences.falling in love with a friend is different in real life.it doesn't always end happy like in movies.it's either your friend will love you back or you will get hurt because s/he doesn't.your friendship may be sacrificed,so be prepared for any consequences you have to face.

Yes handling with them is just easy. If you think that you feel inlove with him/her then let your feelings be. Like mine too I got my husband from our friendship and it is much better coz you know him/her better than anybody else. Just let your feelings toward your friend or if cannot be possible for both better to go off with him.

I think I can relate to this situation. I've been very good friends with this person for quite a few months now and I think I'm falling for him and I think he feels the same way towards me. However, I do not insinuate. I just treat him the same way I treat my other friends.

this happened to me once,i was friends with a really great bloke,we talked for hours,had a laugh together and just generally hung out,but then we started a relationship,it only lasted 4 months,it's never been the same between us since,the chemical attraction is still there,but we've both moved on now as it was over 10 years ago

You treat it as any normal relationship. To act differently will start to make things akward between them. And it is better to talk about it, so you know exactly where you stand. TATA.

I fell in-love with an old friend during high school days. He's been a good friend to me since we were kids and when he confessed his feelings for me, I got carried away & so, we became more than friends. But if I were to choose again or maybe if time turns back to the past, I'd rather suppress my true emotions for him so we can be as good buddies as we were before. Unfortunately, we parted ways due to uncontrollable circumstances. It has slightly affected our friendship especially when I got married but I'm trying to keep myself close to him though it seems he's going too far beyond my reach....The truth is, I do miss him so badly.
