Question - (26 October 2015) 2 Answers - (Newest, 1 November 2015)
A female Cameroon age 26-29, *__Blue writes:

Dear agony aunts, I've known this bisexual girl for a year now and she became my best friend after we flirted together. We talk about everything: her girlfriends, her boyfriend, mine too etc

Today i mentioned wanting to date a beautiful girl like her and her answer took me by surprise. She said "Instead of wanting someone like her, why don't i want her and that she promises she will be the best of all girls i have been with" in order to let it go, I said "You are already the best" and we closed the topic.

Just a year ago, I was crazy about her i mean she's really pretty!! but later on she shoved it away saying she wants friendship and we became besties with time.

These days she evokes possibilities of us being together. I really wish i could say yes but i am a little bit hesitant because i'm scared of what might happen next. Please i don't know what to do. What should i do now?

p:s I am a girl too

supermum agony auntYou need to move very carefully here, sometimes feelings like this can destroy friendships. You need to find out if she is genuinely interested in dating or if she is flirting because she is your best friend. I flirt with my best friend all the time and tell her I will marry her even though we are both straight.

Move very slowly, and think carefully. You have a great friendship here. If you start to date and things go wrong you may lose the friendship for good. You will have to figure out if the risk is worth it, and she will have to think about that too.

Try having an open conversation with her, see what she is really feeling. But as I say, be careful with it. xx

Hey, I personally think you should maybe take things slow and actually find out if she wants to be with you, or if she's just flirting. You say you guys are best friends and you don't want one sided complicated feelings to ruin that. However if a relationship is something you both want then go for it why not? :)
