I think I might be in love with my friend! He's in my thoughts all day, until he texts or calls me at night!

Question - (24 August 2006) 4 Answers - (Newest, 25 August 2006)
A female , anonymous writes:

I've been battling with this confusion for quite some time now. I'm starting to get strong feelings for this boy that I have been knowing for about a year and half or so. It's obvious that we like each other, but we opted to keep things on a friend level. But now I wanna take it to the next level because I think that I'm in love with him, but I'm not too positive.

Every day when I wake up, he's the first thing on my mind. I wanna be with him every second of the day. While I'm at work, I'm anticipating him sending me a text message, and if he doesn't I just think about all the beautiful things that we have done together. At nite is usually when I talk to him, when he calls me something just comes over me.

But I don't know if my mind is just playing with me, or if I really do love him. I'm not too sure if he feels the same way as me though. At times he seems to, but then at other times it seems as if he just wants to stay friends. I don't know if i should confront him about my feelings or not. And do you think that I'm in love or just infatuated with him?. Please help.

Helen1986 agony auntI think that you are in love with him. You have been friends for a year and a half now so its not like you have just met him and are feeling lust. Talk to him explain to him how you feel. He might feel the same, and by what you have said I think that he may do. I think that he is just scared incase it doesn't work out between you, that he will lose you as a friend. But explain to him that it is a risk worth taking and if it doesn't work out between oyu, you will fight to keep him as a friend because he is too precious. Good luck

Ponungalungb agony auntAh. . . a tuffy. Love or infatuation, the age-old question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing end them? I digress.

Whenever I have been in similar situations, rare as they may be, I invite my "friend" over for a few drinks. Inhibitions fall and the next thing you know, you're doing the horizontal hula in the hallway (not that I advocate alcohol to solve life's problems). The next morning, you wake up, and check out his reaction. If he's into you, he'll ask you for an encore. If he's not, he'll go running home to his mommy. You don't say how old you are, but I'm assuming you're old enough to drink. If you're not, just remain friends. Why screw up a good friendship anyway? LOL. GOOD LUCK! ! !

well i have this very same problem and have had it over the past few years more than once. If you can't stand being apart and just like hearing their voice then it is definitely love not infatuation
