The old "falling in love with your best friend" story

Nov 16, 2010 21:01

That's exactly it.
He's my best friend, and we've been so close for like, four-five years. The thing is, ever since last summer, I've been crushing on him. But then I went through grade ten, and I think my feelings intensified. I think I'm in love with him.

I know he doesn't feel the same. At least, I told him on the phone in the summer that I "had a crush on him" but I was too afraid to say more. He told me to basically forget about it, and just continue being friends. From his view, I can totally understand. He's probably not attracted to me, and he doesn't want to risk what we have.

But he's my best friend, and he's perfect. I always tell myself that I don't believe in love, or at least I get discouraged and think guys don't fall in love, not like the movies. But I don't know what to do. I think I am in love with him.

But the worst part is? He told my girl friend Haley, he thinks love is bullshit. I don't believe in marriage, but he's really... Pulling a Chandler, for all those Friends fans out there (when he tries to convince Monica he doesn't believe in marriage?) Anyways - he told her guys just use the word love to get into girls pants.

I feel like saying oh, I knew it. No guys love like they do in Disney movies. Now I'm trapped. I'm in love with my best friend, and I can't tell him because according Haley, he doesn't believe in love.

Now what?
