My best friend (who is a female), is acting strange. We like each other very much, and have talked about dating. Well, she says she wants to tell me something someday.. I asked her if it was "I love you" she said no, but it was very close to it. Then today she asks me if I'm 100% sure that we should be together as more than friends. I said not 100%, but felt in my heart that we should at least try to date, if it works out, it works out...if not, no hard feelings. after I said this then she says she has an answer on if she wants to date, but didn't want to tell me. Then she left. Anyone know what she's trying to say to me?? Thanks for any help you can give.

hmm..almost sounds like she wants a guarantee. If it doesn't work out, she might be afraid of losing your friendship that's so special to her. I think she's scared.

[Kevin]

she did tell me that she was afraid of getting close to people, relationship-wise. so I can believe that answer

[Mattie]

the fear of getting hurt is strong thing. Put the risk of losing a wonderful friendship on top of that, yeah I'd be scared too. I hope she's willing to take the chance eventually.

does anyone else have anything to add?? Thanks Mattie

I have been reading a few of Mattie's advices and I think that she has a good insight on a lot of the topics discussed, this included. I agree with her and I too believe that your friend may be scared to take the next step for fear of getting hurt. Take it one day at a time and since you and her have been friends for awhile, talk to her and assure her that no matter what your friendship will come out on top in the end. That's my two cents worth anyways. Good luck !

best friends make the best lovers. I should know I married mine. He is gone now but if I had the chance it is what I'd want again.

We both agree on that, Lady1st. I have heard that before...by lots of people.
