Am I in love with my best friend ?

Question

I have been best mates with this boy for 5 years, I think for about a week I sort of fancied him, and recently I've thought to myself he isn't too bad and I found him quite attractive, but the thing is I really don't want to go out with him or fancy him. I know this is really stupid, but then when I think about it I don't really find him that attractive. I'm just a bit confused. I'm just really worried that I'll end up with him, because I don't want to. It seems that whenever I "Fancy" him i've been quite hormonal. I don't know whether it's jut my hormones of whether I secretly fancy him. I just really don't want to fancy him.

The answer probably really obvious I'm just so confused. I thought because I haven't been out with anyone in a while that might be why this is happening. I'm just really confused.

Answer 1

If your best friends then you'll be close so it's normal you'll will ahve some feelings for him. 5 years is a long time as mates and it wouldn't be great to become bf and gf because it would probably be awkward and affect your friendship if you were too split up. Don't worry about it though hormones can make you fancy people you least expect but it usually passes over x lol

Answer 2

life is to short to worry if things are meant to be it will happen just dont spend all your time thinking about it because you havent had a boyfreind for a while your hormones are almost persuading u to like someone its like your hungry for love just do what feel right

Answer 3

its just hormones :)

youre really not in love,

just get out some more and not worry about it.

but still stay friends with the boy ;)

Answer 4

It's probably hormones and cause you've been single for awhile. He's you best friend he's a safe answer to the question so your hormones take over but at the end of the day you don't want anything more there's nothing to worry about.

Answer 5

yes you are in love

Answer 6

You do sound pretty confused

but its inevitable sometimes in a boy/girl friendship that one will develop feelings for the other , so i wouldnt worry

you dont sound like your in love with him tho xx

Answer 7

You are not in love with him. You have been spending too much time with him and in the process getting confused.

Answer 8

You're not in love.Don't worry.

But perhaps you might be if you tell him how you feel?

It's obvious you really like him, so you should try your luck! (:

Answer 9

Don't think maliciously about your friend. Give yourself enough space to think of ending up with him. But if you do, make sure that it's really love and not just for the sake of having a boyfriend thing. Now, if you look at him as your friend, leave it that way. It's the safest thing.

Answer 10

It's probably just hormones.

I wouldn't worry too much about it n___n

Sounds like you two get along well...even though it seems difficult to grasp that from simply your question...

I'd remain friends, and see if it passes. n__n

Keep me posted~! <3

Answer 11

sometimes people just feel like that about their best friend but hey that is just for some moment

think careful about that because if you dont really love him then you will ruin your friendship

in my opinion, it is hard to love someone you have known so well but if you really feel it for most of the time then well it worth a try
