    My brothers friend
    I will just give you a little background. Right now I am separated from my husband. I have been with my husband for 8 years. Married for 6. He has a girlfriend. We have 2 beautiful children. I was with my brothers girlfriend (we will call her Sue) and we rode by one of my brothers friends house (we will call him Bill). I told Sue that I thought Bill was cute. I have known Bill since we were 5. I have always thought he was cute. Well Sue decides to call Bill while we were at a club one night. I had no idea. He gave her his number to give me.

    One day while I was at work I went to call one of my friends and I had called Bill. OOPPS! He called me back, but I was not able to answer the phone. He called me later that night while Sue was there. We talked for hours. He is a very sweet guy. He told me he would like to talk to me. He said just talk and if something came of it we would try it. I told him that I had just gotten out of a relationship and didn't want to jump straight into another one. He said he understood.

    Well he called me around 10 that night and asked if he could come see me. I of course let him. Well, when he walked up I got butterflies in my stomach. Well then something happened that I hadn't planned on. He freaked out telling me that he hadn't ever slept with a girl he wasn't in a relationship with especially not his friends sister. I told him everything was OK. Asked him not to say anything and he looked at me like I slapped him. He then proceeded to tell me that he had liked me ever since I gave him a ride home from a party that my brother had had. It was almost 8 years ago. We talked a little more (me trying to avoid the "like" topic). I told him I had to get up at 4 in the morning and it was already 12:30. He was a gentleman and got up to leave. When he got ready to leave he told me he loved me.

    What the H***? He called me the next day. I didn't answer. I have seen him a few times, but have said very little. I do like Bill and would like to talk to him. I just don't know what to do because I don't want to hurt him.

    Any advice would be great. Sorry for the book! LOL! :eek:

    First off all, you admit that you aren't ready for this, so it would be stupid for you to get involved in it. In addition, it doesn't sound like he has a very level head about it. I mean, telling someone you love them when you haven't ever talked as more than friends?

    I think it would be in your best interest to wait it out a while and see how it goes. Tell him you like his company and don't mind talking/spending some time with him, but don't jump into anything...

    How about resolving these more important issues before running around like a single person.
