writes:Some of my older questions about my best friend whom I have been In love with for going on 2 years now has recently split up with his girlfriend and is obviously a little hurt, now him knowing I like him he has been saying things that sound a little flirtatious or it could just me hearing what I want to.He has been acting very sad which is to expect, we have been spending alot more time cause he knows I will always be there as a friend but he started saying that he hates being single and kind of moving closer to me he has also been wanting to spend extra time with me. I feel like punching him but also hugging him :( one I think he is just messing me so that's why I feel like punching him and because I still feel so strongly about him I would love to comfort him but I think I'm getting into deep if I do so :( What should I do? I can't just leave him alone cause he will get himself into trouble and get hated by alot more people.

reader, anonymous, writes (15 June 2011): I've been there and done that with my best friend. He broke up with his girlfriend, I was there for him whenever he needed me, we got even closer than we were before and ended up sleeping together. To cut a long story short, I fell for him, he didn't feel the same way, it completely messed up our friendship, I'm still heartbroken a year later and he's moved on to a new girlfriend. I know you want to be there for him, and he's lucky to have such a good friend, but if you have feelings for him and are already worrying about getting in too deep then you need to protect yourself first and foremost.You can support him while still keeping a suitable distance between you. At the moment it sounds like he's sad and lonely and you're the person that can fill the gap.If when he has had time to truly get over his ex it still seems like there might be something there, then maybe you can see if it could be more than friendship.
