Wow, yes this his happened a couple of times, once when i was a very very young boy and at primary school, we were friends but way too young really for anything to really mean anything, the relationship just fizzled out. But then there is the time when i was at college, i had been in a relationship for just over a year and that came to an end, but when the next year started i was on a different course and i met a load of different people, i always love spending time with women and i did a course on care at college and that had mainly female students, anyway, i got close to a lot of women, especially one, she and i were so alike in so many ways, she ended up falling for me but i was still hurting from my breakup from the year before and so nothing happened even though i did like my friend also, it is a shame as i do think about her sometimes, i guess she will be happily married now with a couple of children. But while at college atleast we did remain good friends. A part of me wishes i could just turn the clock back. I would have changed things and given her a chance.

sorry for that^^ but is sweet that you were honest with her and didnt use her to forget your ex. you are a great guy. you really deserve a great woman that really loves you. im sure that if you are meant for that girl anyway she will appear in your life and you dont need to wish that the clock could turn back. im sure that you will find a great woman that will love you much^^ and that you will feel the same way. you deserve that

Thanks for that, i do have time on my hands and hope that in that time i find the right woman for me as i also hope im the right man for her, love to settle down. Even if my old friend is married or not, i would love to bump into her just to see how things have gone in her life and catch up on years missed.

Actually it happened to me ones, and it wasn't so pleasant. we were a very good friend and we talked a lot and even meet almost every day. And i had a girlfriend at those days, my friend was very supportive and helped me a lot when i had problem with my girlfriend. A few days after me and my girlfriend broke up, my friend told me the she had feeling for me i told her that i like her to, but she said that she always loved me and wait for this moment i will be available. I just wanted to stay friend but it was very hard to know that she want more.. It was a very embarrassing moment and we don't talking since than..

im sorry for that yoni is sad that you stopped being friends with her bcs she loved you and you didnt love her back. she waited you since forever just to love you and even if you loved her as a friend only you should continue friends with her. she deserved that bcs she was so sweet and always helped you while you were with your gf. you shouldnt had let a good friend go. thats so hard to find good friends also maybe with time you could love her. you should had continue friends but stop contact no.

Thanks for the support SweetLove but it was a long time ago... And it was hard to keep enjoy with her when i know she want me all the time, she even try to make out one time cause she thought i am just scared and need to understand she can be more than a friend. Since than the relationship has become stranger, and we stop talking.

A friend of mine did fall in love with me once and I was honest with him. I told him that I viewed him only as a friend and not in a romantic light. I apologized that I couldnt return his affection. I did however lose the friendship because he thought I lead him on by being his friend and treating him as I would my other friends.

thats cute that you were honest with him^^ thats the best to do always. im sorry that he stopped being your friend. you mean he stopped being your friend bcs couldnt stand that you treat him as a friend only. well i guess is complicated if we love a friend to see him with someone else but when we love someone really is better to have him as a friend than not at all. at least thats the way i feel^^ sorry but you were honest so wasnt your fault what happened^^

Hello Sweet, usually if i pick someone for loving, i know it from the first moment. I mean - if i will have relationship with someone, i know it from the moment i met the person. Only once i had such experience, when my best friend was the one i loved. It was hard time, i was little jealous and mean about the girlfriend he just found. But he was patient enough to wait me and to see how I will deal with that. He supported me all the time, he was just a good friend. And until now nobody knows that with the exact friend, i had flirt and i wanted to be with him, because he was such a nice guy. Even my present boyfriend knows the guy but he doesn't know our serious friend-friend moment, when we had to deal with my feelings and to be still friends. I had reason to start my post the way i started it. It's because i never give hopes to people i don't want to be with. I clearly show if i want a relationship with someone, if i love him and i say many many times in different situations examples how i can't start my relations with someone as a friendship and finish them with relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. That's how i skip the moment when we will have conversations with my friends about being together or such things. They will just know how i think about that and will respect my point of view - for sure. That's how friends do and i'm happy to have few but really great friends.

sorry that your friend didnt love you back. but thats cute that you were honest with him and he continued your friend and didnt go away from you^^ thats cute that you act normal^^ and continue being still friends with him now. thats good that when you dont love that person you say that directly. i think we should always be honest and dont give fake hopes at all. that is much worse bcs the other person can be hurt and we can lose a good friend bcs of that. you are a sweet person and im happy you have great friends that are like you are to them^^ thats very cool and special bcs is really hard to find good friends^^ im very happy for you really^^ wish you have a happy day always^^

That friend is just precious, but our problem now is that he is more with his girlfriend, i am with my boyfriend, in different cities, so it's making the things difficult, we don't see each other so much. Last time i saw his was around my birthday, it was 4 months ago and i'm really sorry that we lost contact, because of some reasons. With him we are similar kinds of people, so i would love to meet such a good friend where i am now, but it's pretty hard.

thats cool that at some point you loved them back^^ thats cute at least they didnt have their heartbroken so many times. anyway is normal that it ended at some point bcs maybe you were not meant to be. thats just normal. anyway what about your life right now? what about your best friend? any new from her or still she continues not saying nothing? you really should try to find out if she is ok or not. try to write her a letter or something.

My best friend since 7th grade actually confessed about 10 years ago that he was madly in love with me and always has been. The conversation started out one night over dinner that we needed to catch up more instead of going so long between seeing each other. I asked him why he was single and he said he was waiting for this girl to wake up and smell the "juston". I thought that was odd and then he told me about this girl that he met when he was a kid and told me all these wonderful qualities. I was envious, as I always wanted to be considered beautiful, talented, wonderful, caring, honest, and was really laid back. Well, the drunker we got the quicker it slipped out that he was madly in love with ME! I was all of those wonderful things he said. I was THAT girl. Unfortunately, he's more a brother than a boyfriend and I told him that too. I didn't do it harshly but he knows all my bads goods and uglies and I just felt it was nice having a friend that cared enough to listen. We are still friends today, he's finally found a girl that matches some of those things and they have children together. I am proud of him.

hello cat, I remember one friend who claims and tell it to my friends and relatives that he loves me,days before his wedding (shocking) This happens during my younger days,i was 16 years old then. He is a good friend and count him as a brother since he is older for 12 years. Then,days before his wedding,he was a bit drunk and was looking at me in my aunt's souvenir shop where i work part time. It happens that i was not there that time,and with frustration he was almost shouting and saying that he loves me...but was not able to tell me because i was too young. My cousin told me what happened the next day,and it was a real shocked for me. How could he do that,his wedding is due,and what happen if his bride to be will come to know that. I was a bit angry and looked for him too,and when i found him i almost punch his face..but i hold my temper. He was sorry,and admitted that he loves me...he repeatedly says that he loves me. Gosh,i want to crushed him and say that...he should respect his bride to be. On the day of their wedding i never show'd up...i don't want to create any trouble if ever he sees me. And after that,i decided to stay in my grandparents hometown for sometime to avoid him. it's not a good experience...and it's not the first time that a friend of mine admitted secretly that he had fallen in love with me but was scared to admit in my face. Have a great day always dear

Hi sweet love forever: I think once, one of my best female friends have fallen in love with me. She have never asked me this idrectly but she gave me some clues. I like her but I wasn't really interested on starting a relationship with her so I know I would be honest. Thanks God it seems that she has noticed that I wasn't interested on her but only as a friend so she now has some other interests and it didn't affect our friendship. ALVARO

That was a good move not doing anything after hearing from your sister that your friend liked you. Ladies should never make the first move. I have a friend who liked me before, i only said liked because i can't say it was really love because we were too young then. He said he liked me and wanted us to be more than friends but i really said no because i don't have any feelings for more than friends. And because i know that my best friend likes him. I also wasn't ready to fall in love that time. Studying was really my first priority. We remained friends after we talked and then after a few months they got together with my best friend. I was very happy because i know that my best friend was happy.

Hi, In my case, love always started from a friendship and when it ended it not only destroyed the love but also the friendship. Some people are never ready for break ups. Some anticipate break ups even before making the proposition. Now when someone has no direct contact with you will prefer to use a medium to establish contacts. This has two advantages. First of all, it makes an unreachable person reachable. Secondly, if the proposal gets rejected, you can still maintain a good relationship with him, as the rejection was rather subtle and indirect. You never have to say yes/no on someone's face. Because of all these advantages, a person chooses an indirect way to reach the person he thinks he likes. In my opinion, you can never be true friends with someone you find attractive. Thanks. God bless you.

My bestfriend loves me but did not made clear of his feelings. Back in college, he said me he needed to say something to me but he will tell it on our graduation day. We were still in our second year. I told him he will forget that after 2 years. He said he won't. Graduation comes and I ask him what was that he wanted to say to me, and he answered "Never mind. It's not important". I did not insisted anymore coz i know why. He did not have the courage to say his feelings anymore because I was into a serious relationship at that time. A year after that, I pulled a prank on him saying me and my bf had broken up. And he said, "Ok, so now I have the chance on you". But really even if I wasn't into a relationship, I couldn't love him more than a friend. He's a nice and sweet guy, but I can only offer him friendship and nothing more.

Hi, My response to your question is yes, a friend did fell in love with me once. However, he never tell me in person, because my other friend talked him out of it. (My friend knew I didn't like him in that way) lol. I was really surprised though..because he seemed to act really natural and comfortable when he was around me. But when he was with some group of girls, he was really shy. Anyways, I didn't want to break this friendship so I didn't say anything. ^-^ I guess our stories are quite alike in some ways. We are still good pals now~

I had this really sweet guy friend who I loved more then any girlfriend I have ever had. I use to joke and tell him he was the best guy/girl friend in the world. He and I could speak on the telephone for hours every night and share so many things. I started to notice that he had something for me so I told him that I could not be with him as I saw him like a family member, and I explained how friends cannot date as if the dating does not work out then the friendship will die. He always told me he understood but as time when by I noticed he was getting more serious. No matter how many times I told him I could not date him he one day dared and kissed me. From then sweet our friendship went down the tubes. I use to talk to him daily and now maybe one time per year. As I did not want him to get hurt as I could never date him. He did get hurt but at least I was honest with him.

Well we already kind of discussed that :D As i said if i love someone i know it the first moment we met ;) Then is the time i somehow get to know if we are going to be only friends or i'm going to love her ;) or maybe she is annoying :PPPPP But well i got one girl that i fell for and well she is my friend for like 6-7 years now and well i have the feeling somewhere stored in there , for me its kind of special friend :) Well if some friend tell me that she love me i will react depending on the friend :P i got some friends that are very nice and sweet that i might give it a try but well it never happens :P I suck :D
