Special friend vs. lover

Tagged as: Friends<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (1 April 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 1 April 2010)
A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Someone told me if a woman calls you her special friend, she's not attracted to you at all. My friend called me her "very special friend" while her guard was down due to some very hard problems. She's usually really snide and we have a sort of back and forth making fun of each other thing going on. Our relationship is predominantly long-distance and I thought we were flirting. Is this bad news for me from the standpoint of a possible lover rather than just a friend? She had a really big crush on me a year ago when I had a girlfriend, but that ended dramatically and we parted as friends. SInce then, she's had three or four boyfriends.

Auntie E agony auntDon't put a whole lot of stock into what someone "long distance" is saying. Special or Very Special - what does it all really mean if you are not up close and personal? Also by your own admission - she said "very special friend" under duress. Don't any more thought or energy into this. Frankly, I think she's playing you.

smitheroon agony auntI want you to first consider if you want a long-distance girlfriend. You have to be sure of that before you go any farther.

If you think that would work, then from MY standpoint (and ALL women are different) this is how she's telling you that she likes you - at least that's how I've hinted at a male friend before that it would be nice if he'd fricken do SOMETHING to kick this up a notch. As women, we're so constantly bombarded by how we have to be coy and chased and blah blah blah, it can get a little confusing and we're left waiting, and waiting, and waiting for you guys to do ANYTHING.

You want it - go and get it! Let her know!!
