I like my best friend don't know how he feels about me but don't want to ruin our friendship if we date!

Question - (23 June 2013) 1 Answers - (Newest, 24 June 2013)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I know this is just like those stupid teen problems that are really stupid and shallow, but I really don't care.

I don't know if my friend likes me or not.

He's told me that I'm his best-friend, and my other friend, who has known him a lot longer than I have, say's that he's never been close enough to someone like this before.

At a couple of sleepovers we've gotten slightly intimate (my version of intimacy is pathetic because I've never had a boyfriend or anything and I can't think of another work), it's never gotten as far as kissing or anything like that, but we usually end up sleeping either spooning or sort of tangled up in each-other.

He does like someone, but he refuses to tell, and I don't want to push him because I know how infuriating it is when someone keeps annoying your private life.

BUT

The reason I'm so unsure of this is because he has Aspergers, which I have looked up, and it fits him *almost* perfectly. I don't really know if this makes anything any different, and I don't really want to talk about to anyone I know because it sounds like I'm classifying him as a mental-case, which I'm completely NOT.

The other reason is that I'm not even sure that I do like him that way, I mean I don't want to ruin this brilliant friendship by dating and then breaking up.

Help???

A female reader, aunt honesty Ireland +, writes (24 June 2013):

aunt honesty agony auntIf you are unsure about how you actually feel about him then for now I think you should just remain his friend. It happens extremely often that when a girl and a guy are friends one time or another one or both people are going to think about more than friendship. But if you are happy at the moment being his friend and that is enough for you well then keep things the way that they are and at least then you won't need to worry about messy break ups and ruining your friendship.
