Feelings for close friend
I have this close friend that I've been friends with for almost a year. I thought he was cute when I first met him but so did one of my roomates! She actually told him she like him but he never said he liked her like that. He comes to my house everyday, he even spends the night sometimes. He's seen me on my good looking days and bad we pratically do everything together. We're even alike TOO alike if you ask me. He can be arrogant at times, in front of my other guy friend, but when we would talk alone he seemed like that sensitive guy who wants to be in a good relationship. One night we talked for hours about realtionships. I would notice that he would hrow hints at me by saying certain things about taking a friendship further with a friend, and he would always tell me that and I starting thinking maybe he was talking about me but I tried to pay it no attention. He would seemed to get jealous when I talked about other guys by saying something arrogant. He always would be flirty with me like give me compliments on my hair and outfit and he always talks about my butt! Lol, but I would ignore it. One day we were alone on my couch and he laid on my lap and started to caress my knee and leg. He stopped when I didn't say anything.. I was too nervous to! He then texted me the next day and told me that if we weren't close friends that something would've already happened. Im so tempted to try something, but I don't want to mess up our friendship he's like a borther to me! And none of my roomates know including the one that used to like him. Plus, there are still so many questions unanswered! I don't know if he really likes me or just want to do a one nighter and then remain friends. Should I just remain friends with him or try to see where this might lead?
I posted a topic about 30 minutes ago and got no answers. I am sooo desperate for answers! I've been trying to hide these feelings from my close friend for months! I know its very long to read but I had A LOT on my mind. I really need advice or I wouldn't be on here! Someone answer ASAP Thanks!
