Friends with potential?

Question - (3 December 2011) 3 Answers - (Newest, 4 December 2011)
A female Australia age 36-40, anonymous writes:

This week a friend Ive known for years made a move on me and we made out a bit. I was really suprised by his behavior though because years ago I tried to take the initive but he told me "we were just friends" Weve always hung out in groups and he would help me out with rides when I didnt have a car, trips to airport etc...but never expected anything from me. So, I was really taken aback when things changed.

I asked him why he hadnt expressed this interest sooner and he didnt really answer me. I told him I had thought he wasnt attracted to me, but he said that wasnt it.

Im frustrated that it he is so mysterious. Should I let it go??

I just want to add

We have been friends for years!! He has taken me to Drs visits and let me crash on his couch when I was in-between homes

Weve worked on projects together and there was no taking advantage of

Also, he spent the night but didn't try to force me to have sex. In fact he

Kept his clothes on!

If it was nothing why go to all the trouble?

But I will do as the others suggested abs communicate

You guys are great

tennisstar88 agony auntIt's sounds like he's after friends with potential benefits.

I would play it safe be maintaining the strict friendship boundaries. Deny him access the next time he make a pass at you, simply stating you two are like he said just friends.

aunt honesty agony auntAsk him what it is that he wants, it sounds to me like you might want a lot more than he does, it might just have been a bit of fooling around for him, yet it means so much more to you. To be honest I think you need to ask him what he wants, so that you do not expect to much and think there is more to it than there is.
