I'm just not sure how attracted to him I am physically. Should I date him or stay just friends?

Question - (1 April 2007) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 April 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

This might seem quite stupid... but it's doing my head in at the moment! I've recently gotten to know a guy in the year above me at school...I'm 17 and hes 18

I know he likes me lot.

My problem is this: how do I work out if I really like him or just want to be friends? He is the most lovely guy I have ever met and he makes me laugh so much... but honestly, I'm just not sure how attracted to him I am physically.

How important is this?

He is so lovely that he doesn't deserve to be led on if I don't really like him

Any advice on how to figure out how I really feel about him? Possibly in a way that doesn't involve him getting hurt?

Thanks

I understand how you feel. It's so hard because I have the same problem with the guy I am seeing now. He's just so nice...but I don't feel that spark.

Is the spark necessary?

If you don't give him a chance, then he'll be sad because he might think...maybe you can like me if you get to know me better. If you do give him a chance, are you cheating yourself out of a relationship with someone you truly liked.

I was pretty upfront with him about it...telling him "I just want to be friends now. I'm not ready for a relationship. No expectations."

Sometimes you can grow to become physically attracted to someone...I think.

I hope you the best.

You sound like you just want to be friends with him. After all, if you really wanted a relationship with him you would know. So just stay friends with him.

P.S. Why do you say that you are 17 when it says near the top next to the U.K. flag age 36-40? Did you put it in wrong?
