Can we still be friends?

Question - (28 August 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 29 August 2008)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

hey everybody. I had this friend whom I REALLY liked. He had a great personality and we had a lot in common. Almost everything in common. We would talk on a fairly consistent basis about mostly everything. He was so nice to me. I have been to his place and we cuddled and watched TV etc. It never got intimate. He knew I liked him more than a friend but I respected his decision and we stayed friends though I always had a little hope that someday he will find me appealing in that way.

Well recently he got into a relationship and we have stopped talking. I decided to leave him be and not bother him cause I really care for him and would love to see him happy. However I would really like to talk to him again someday but I am not too sure if it is the right thing since he is in a relationship. I dont know how long to wait or what but i dont want this to become one of those faded friendships.

By the way, i have moved on and im dating other guys as well and interested in other ppl but im never going to forget about him cause he was a really nice guy.

Should i ever try to talk to him again, as he was a really nice guy to talk to and I dont want to lose his friendship.

superrrshawna agony aunthonestly it could be the new girlfriend. it's rough being a girlfriend of a guy who has a very close ladyfriend. keep trying to keep in touch and if not, just do your best to be a good friend and accept that he is happy with the choice he made. you never know, if she leaves the picture he may be your best friend again.

Hey thanks so far. The thing is I did try talking to him. I sent him a message saying congrats on the relationship. He did not answer and usually does answer my messages. I tried talking to him on aim and he seems like he doesnt really want to talk. I think he may be on cloud nine with his new lady but I am just worried. I might leave him alone so I dont become an annoyance......its kinda confusing i dont want to lose him
