Question - (29 April 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 29 April 2008)
A male Australia age 41-50, *isyphus writes:

I have some strong emotional feelings for my housemate G. When we first met three years ago it was just for casual sex as I wasn't ready for a relationship with anyone after comming out of a four year relationship. Then he started dating someone else so I missed my opportunity. Recently they broke up, however our mutual friend A has set G up with A's ex S. G has confided in me that he doesn't know if he wants to enter into a relationship or not and doesn't know if he is doing it because he misses affection. I don't want to go and use his confidence against him nor destroy what might be between G and S, but I don't want to miss out on a chance to see what may be again. To further complicate matters G and I live together and we share many of the same friends.

Should I see if I can make something happen with G, or should I just try and forget about it?

Laura1318 agony auntAFRAID TO CONFESS ?

Love hurts when you break up with someone.

It hurts even more when someone breaks up with you.

But love hurts the most when the person you love has no

idea how you feel.

As long as you believe you can, you will have a reason for trying.

Sisyphus agony aunt Thanks for your reply Waterloo, as for what have I got to lose? Well we live together, it would make things very akward for the two of us to be just friends afterwards if G said no, even more akward if he started seeing someone else. I don't want us to be akward.

If he is single then why not ask him out? What do you have to lose, but remember once friends progress to lovers then if you fall out then the friendship is never the same.

take care
