A female United States age 30-35, *upidsAnswers writes:

When I was in 7th grade, I laid my eyes on the most adorable guy in school, we didn't talk until 8th grade. Soon we became the best of friends, he would walk me home everyday after school, we were just little youngsters and at our 8th grade graduation we told each other how we felt, turns out we were both in love and then he asked me to be his.

I refused cause we were to close to be in a relationship. I didn't want to ruin a great friendship. Years later were still close but he has girlfriends and I have boyfriends. We tell each other everything and anything. But he broke up with his girlfriend last night cause he wants to be with me. it took a lot of thinking but I finally said yes and now we're together but I feel weird. Should I of said yes? I don't know how to feel. Help !

This IS an advantage. You two will probably not end up with each other for the rest of your lives, but that is just a fact of life: there's no telling what the future holds. So instead of thinking about it, live in the moment. I honestly wish I was your guy. I'm in love with my best friend, but I don't have the confidence to tell her. But this is about you, so let's take it from the top.

HE left his girlfriend to be with YOU. That proves that he will make a tough decision for you.

You two are already friends so there shouldn't be any of the painful icebreaking needed.

It doesn't matter if he's your friend or boyfriend, the key to any relationship is interest. If you two couldn't connect at all you wouldn't even be friends' right?

don't worry about what the future holds and don't let go of your feelings so easily. You two shouldn't end anything unless it is mutual.

This is only advice. I can't tell you how to live your love life. But keep a level head and stay friendly. A lover is someone you can trust and count on. And a lover like this guy, only comes once in a lifetime. So don't take it for granted, because you'll never fall in love the way you fell in love with him.

Partyboy123 agony auntHey,

Only you really know if saying yes was the right or wrong thing... if you feel weird, that may be because you knew it should have been this way a long time go, and because you are overwhelmed with everything. If you love him, then it should work out just fine..

hope i helped
