writes: Right, well I apologise for the length of this. I have really liked/fancied one guy for years, my close friend's older brother Ben. There has been a period whilst I was with someone else and I didn't think about Ben much at all. After my relationship I became friendlier with Ben's sister Hatty again. I didn't have any of my previous feeling anymore and it became much easier to be Ben's friend. I mean we flirt a bit but in a jokey way. I could quite happily admit that I had no romantic interest in him. Cue our close friend Katie. On a night out whilst I was away at uni Ben made a move on her and they ended making out. When I came back for my Christmas break I heard about this. Although I was a little jealous I didn't really mind after all they're both my friends. So imagine my surprise when on a night out with everybody I end up in floods of tears because Katie and Ben are kissing yet again. (although thy later fell out that night). Anyway that was months ago. This summer I have spent a fair bit of time with Ben and Hatty.. I have enjoyed it. Recently though I have felt old feelings surfacing. Apparently on a couple of drinking sessions I have told him that I like him (although I have no memory of this). I do remember, shamefully touching rather a lot. I have been told about this by Ben's sister. I know they have a tendency to exaggerate so it may an embroidered account of events. Apparently Ben doesn't want a repeat of what happened with Katie (they aren't really speaking) and he likes me too much as a friend to lead me on.So recently on nights out I end up crying and I'm pretty sure it's about Ben. But I can't exactly talk to Katie and Hatty, my two closest friends. I just need some advice about getting over it. Or maybe advice on getting him to like me? I don't really know just need someone else's opinion. Thanks :)
