i told him last november how i felt and he said he doesnt want to ruin our friendship coz we have really good friendship!!! anyways after that he moved away for work and we didnt really keep in contact apart from a call/text every month...and then he left his job and called me. telling me he's back...he told me he was kinda seeing this girl - i feel like he's forgetten about i how feel or felt about him! this was in May this year!

we spoke often and then about two weeks he calls me 2.30am thurs nite/fri morn as he had things on his mind (at this point it had been abt 6 weeks since we last spoke) we spoke for 1hr 30 mins and spoke about everything! we are both indian (this will make sense why im telling u this later)! the subject of marriage came up...i told him that i have been introduced to some guy but things haven't developed and i haven't met this guy at this time and he told he been intro to some girl! and they were gonna meet fri evening! i was fine about this and told him i have already seen a guy my parents intro to me but it didnt work out! in fact there was a third guy too (and this 3rd guy ... about 6 weeks prior...X (guy i like) called me but i missed his calls ...i said to myself if he calls me today guy 3 (who at that time was guy 1..and me wouldnt work out...and X did call me!!))

anyways that nite when he calls 2.30am we arranged to meet for lunch coz we havent seen each other since last aug! btw X is my of closet friends! we met up for lunch - it was great seeing him!!

since that day we have spkn nearly everyday! and both our marriage intros have fallen threw! and then yest he told me he saw this other girl he met himself and she told him after she only wants to be friends! and he asked me what i thought!!

I know you really like him, but he may just see you as a good friend. Right now, I think you need to voice your heart to him. Tell him exactly how you feel, tell him everything you wrote today. Things like you think you guys are fated, and you like for three years now. Let him know. And let him give you an answer. If he feels the same, he will come around. And if he doesnt feel the same, then dont pursue it any longer, or you'll just mess up a good friendship!
