A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

i have a male friend who i am very close to and like a lot but hes unaware of my feelings. he had a near breakdown last year and i did everything i could to help him-i was there for him day and night-got him loads of presents to cheer him up etc. since then hes recovered and gained his confidence back which i am happy about but hes changed, hes distant with me now but sometimes says strange things like he likes being with me and hugs me a lot yet around others hes reserved. ive done everything i can but he doesnt seem to have appreciated any of it. ive got him loads of stuff and given him money but he acts like these are everyday things and not big deals. he says im a good friend to him but i cant help feeling hurt. whats hhe thinking here and why has he changed ?

A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (12 May 2010):

Oh hun, you've lain down and written WELCOME over yourself and now you are unhappy he's using you as a doormat.

You need to take a step back and regain some self respect.

Take some time and space for yourself and ask what this relationship really is for you. Spend time with other friends and get your head straight.

Then when you are feeling stronger, ask him what he wants from you.

Good Luck!! xx
