He left at the end of year 10 and had a g/f so we lost contact for a few years and only recently started hanging out a again(5years later).. but alot.. well things happened one night about 2 months ago and we ended up sleeping together...we were rather blazed...he wanted to have sex i was up for it and we always had this joke that one day we would have sex and he would turn gay.. long story .. but even i high school we were extremely flirty toward each other .. i thought things would have messed up and i was surprised when we got even closer..but not in the way i hoped..ok so on and off for years i had have well "crushes on him".. he was my best friend so i cared about him alot.. anyway..i told him i "liked" him..about a, month back and he told me that he didn't want to ruin our friend ship coz i mean that much to him he doesn't want to lose me..but i talk to a closed Friend of ours.. and he had told her that he did have those kind of feelings toward me but doesn't want to take it further, in fear of us breaking up and he thinks we'll never be the same.. which a can completely understand and feel the same.. but this the part i hate... he's been pretty depressed about being single, among other things and asked me to help find him a girl.. and i agreed not knowing how this would make me feel.. and i told him the other week that i had been in love with him for years and helping him find a girl is hurting me coz of how i feel for him.. he was just speechless did not know what to say to it.. and well on the way home from clubbing in the city which is when i told him.. he was fine then he just broke down..he ended up driving a few hours away and stayed with some relo's..i went to visited him the day after he went down there...Coz i missed seeing him for not even a day. lol. and he wanted my company when he was escaping from all the drama that was going on here.. well at least that's how i see it..

there is just a few things i dont get but.. when we go out and get blazed i sometimes end up giving him head..and we just foul around... if he doesnt want anything to happen between us why do we do these things... also when i saw him last he told me to close me eye.. and then he kissed me.. and then kissed me again?! what is that..??

A reader, anonymous, writes (31 August 2009):

I like Emily's answer as a suggestion for getting what it is you actually want....but first and foremost stop drinking around him and giving him blow jobs, you are putting yourself at low value when you do that.

Seriously, you are just servicing him and that is disgusting on your part. The reason he can't elevate you to a girlfriend is because you have done that. Turn yourself around and show some self respect, don't ever do that for a guy you aren't dating and in a relationship with again, ever.....or you are going to end up used and abused.

He is conflicted because he does enjoy your company, but he has lost respect for you in my estimation. Start earning it back by holding out for what it is you actually want, a proper relationship. If he can't or won't turn his feelings for you into something more than just f-ck buddies, then you are on your way to getting over him and moving on to a better relationship for you. Because this is not healthy, you are kind of chasing him aren't you by making yourself as handy to him as a shirt pocket?

LazyGuy agony auntWhy does he do these things?

What things? Cum in your mouth? Because you are blowing him.

Few men would resist a free blow job.

You are at best FWB. I doubt it will become more. Sorry girl, but you are the one doing these things. From your post, he doesn't seem to be doing much beyond a light friendship.

Honeypie agony auntStop getting drunk around him, if that is the excuse you two use when you end up having sex. Giving him head will not convince him to go from friends to BF/GF...

Right now you are more like friends with Benefits then anything else.

If you want him to be your friend, then be a friend - keep your mouth and hand off him.

He does seem to like you but either isn't really sure about the two of you.

I agree with Emily's answer:

Cut contact for a while and spend time with other friends. He will either realize that he does indeed want a relationship OR you will realize what it is you want.

Well i was kinda basing it on the fact that he told your firend he did like you, and ye do talk and spend time together manytimes where its not about sex.

Your gut feeling is the one you should trust.

If you feel that he is playing you then, certainly that is unfair and you deserve better.

OKay, maybe he is playing you and doesn't want to have a proper relationship as he's getting what he wansts now, stop giving him oral etc. and keep your relationship strictly as friends, and see if his feelings stay the same x

Channypie is verified as being by the original poster of the question

you say its obvious that this guy likes me.. i have told him a few times how i feel.. and he hasnt said anything.. or tells me that he doesnt know what to say.. then if i ask him about it the next day.. by sms or something he tells me that he loves me to much to ruin our freind ship and that i mean to much to him to take things further at the risk of losing me.. and this doesnt help make me feel better when i feel like a loser coz ive never had a relationship :'(

Okay all i'm going to say since the others have provided decent varied advice for your problem is, stop giving him head when you're not going out together.

A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (31 August 2009):

What's happening is that he's messing you about.

He doesn't know how he feels. That's fair enough.

But he knows how you feel so when ever you get sexual with him, he knows deep down that he's using you. You ask why he does this? Simple. FREE BLOW JOBS!!!

You can get this guy if you want but you are going to have to be really strong. I'm not sure you'll have it in you but if you really want it and focus then you can do this.

Ok.

So he doesn't want you as girlfriend, is aware that he's hurting you, but still keeps you around because he likes having you there as a mate.

Well I'm sorry, but even if he has the best intentions in the world: He's being selfish.

So here is what you do.

You point out how selfish he is being and tell him you can't take it any more. If you can't have him as a boyfriend, it's too painful for you to be around him. Tell him you are going to take some time away from him and cut contact with him for a while so you can get over him. Your friendship will not be the same afterwards and you will not be as close. But that's life. He's going to lose you because he just doesn't feel that way.

Make it clear that he is basically going to lose you.

After this, the hard bit. CUT CONTACT. No texts, no calls. If he asks how you are then text back and tell him that you are still hurt and still don't want him to contact you.

Spend time with your other friends. Look around at other guys. Start the process of getting over him.

He will realise what an idiot he is being about this and come after you to ask you to be his girlfriend. When he does, you take it SLOWLY. Don't rush into bed. Make him take you out. Make him do it right, or he will just see you as his mate and end up looking for other girls as he has been doing previously.

If he doesn't come after you then you just have to carry on not talking to him and trying to get over him. Sometimes these things just don't work out. But you can give it a try rather than letting it destroy you slowly.

Good Luck!! xx

I feel that you are too available for him. You're at his beck and call and he's lapping it up. You need to make him work for you. go out on a date, see how he feels. If he wants you it will drive him mad and you'll know.

How does he look at you? Does he look deeply in your eyes after he kisses you? or does he just kiss and grope.

I myself hav had far too much experience with men, only lately have I met one I am intuitive about. I can tell how he feels etc. you will too, just play the field and give it time. if you've never been in a relationship, you'll never have anything to compare this guy to.

Libra1963 agony auntYou need to talk to him. You dont know where you you are and we cant advise you either. All I can say is that he is taking advantage of you. Do not let him use you unless you are getting something back in return.

It sounds like there is some chemistry between you and it has been there for sometime. find out if he is free and if he wants to have a relationship with you. Take it slowly and make him do the running. Do not fall into bed too quickly - you will get more satisfaction knowing that he ran after you.

Good luck.

This is a hard one.

its obvious that this guy likes you. I dont think he is using you in any way for sex. I think its gotten beyond the stage where you guys can just be normal friends because you like him as more than a friend and he likes you.

id be inclined to let him know that this thing betweeen ye could be brilliant as well as potentially breaking up. Thin positive and go for it.

If he still doesnt want to then you do need to withdraw for a while and allow yourself to get over him because you cant just stop feeling that way about him.

In any case until you know where you stand with him emotionally no more night-time treats for him. :-)

I hope this helps and good luck with it.
