whatever it means to just be friends

why do you have to say things like that?

i really want to know what you mean. i want to tell you to keep the communication lines open this time. but how open do i mean? there are things im feeling for you that im not telling you.

sometimes i imagine that stephen and i have been friends since we were kids. like best friends. hes always been around, everywhere i go, he goes. he adores me and i adore him. and we know eachother completely.
maybe we even secretly like eachother. idk why i do that.
at the play the other night, i wanted him beside me. and i wanted him to call me everynight this weekend. but then i was scared that he would.

stephen, sometimes i feel like i want to date you. youd really be the perfect guy to date. you love jesus, you have good morals, youre a nice guy and you make me feel good about myself. but sometimes i cant get past your imperfections and that keeps me from liking you in that way. i know i have imperfections. and more than you do, but when youre friends with someone you can accept things much more easily. when youre dating, you have to wonder if you really want to put up with the flaws in your partner.

i cant tell you that. im really only starting to understand it, and i really like what we have going so maybe ill just wait.

i just hope i dont wait too long like i did last time. i dont want to run away from you again.
