What should I do? Or should I do nothing?
 

At the beginning of last weekend I had an encounter with a close friend of mine. I mentioned a little bit of it in my journal which I'll quote because its late and I'm to lazy to write it over again.
Over the course of the weekend we ended up kissing and making out again several times but I was always to chicken to bring it up and talk about it and I could tell that he wanted to. I think since we've been friends for so long we are just afraid to approach it though I know he feels something for me from the way that he looks at me and even if he didn't care about me in that fashion I doubt that he would use me for affection like this. Now that I write it all out it seems like such a juvenille problem something I should be old enough to handle on my own but still I'm afraid of loosing him as a friend.

Any input at all would be greatly appreciated.

I would say go for it. He seems to be reciprocating, and since you guys are already close friends, just tell him. He'll understand and probably reveal similar feelings back. It seems like it's going well for you.

The reason I'm so timid about it is because the last relationship I was in which lasted a while turned into a bad one and then turned into a nightmare and I ended up getting hurt pretty bad emotionally though I don't like to admit it. But still I guess I shouldn't let that hold me back, its been almost a year and a half since that last one.

Try not to let past relationships prevent you from forging new ones. Sometimes we have to take some risks. ;) I'd say talk to him about it. Sometimes friends make the best lovers.

nanashiusako is right; don't let the past hold you back. It looks like things are going pretty well considering the response you get from him. Believe me, I've had a lot of friends who were in the same situation but things didn't play out as well; at least he seems to have the same feelings back! I say go for it, and you know, you shouldn't worry about when it's going to end or if you get hurt.

This is a no brainer. Just talk to the guy! You obviously share the same feelings for eachother and you've already kissed so why hide anything? I think that the best relationships are forged from good friendships. After all, if you know the person you're dating before dating him/her you're bound to know WHY you like him/her in a deeper sense that when you're dating someone you've only known for a short period of time. Don't let the fact that you're good friends stop you from having a more intimate relationship with him. Who knows, this might be it for real...

Confess your feelings over a chicken dinner. At the very least, it would have a hidden meaning for you.

Do it!
 

I agree with everyone else. Talk to him, but in person. I know it seems easier on the phone or instant messenger, but it will be more sincere in person.

My boyfriend and I were friends for quite a while before we started dating and we have been together for more than a year. It may seem awkward at first, but I never have a problem talking to him.

I did have one experience though with a best friend turned boyfriend where it felt like I was kissing my brother. I ended up ignoring it and it just got worse and worse. We ended up making a big mistake by staying together for a while. I thought those feeling were gone, so I finally made the biggest mistake of all and slept with him. After that the feeling came back and we broke up. We don't talk anymore.

If you feel like he is more like a brother....Don't get involved with him.

Thanks for all the input, I would have replied to all of these sooner but I no longer have internet access at home. Me and him have talked about it a little but it still is a little awkward. Though our relationships still goes on undefined we have take a few more steps. It probably would have been worked out by now if I didn't have work, finals to study for, and am still in the midst of moving. But I plan on sitting down with him and having a talk tonight when he comes over. I'll write ya back tomorrow and tell you how it goes. And thank you for all your advice.

Just remember that the relationship doesn't have to move very fast. It doesn't sound like either of you are comfortable jumping right into it, so don't. Once you're both a little more comfortable with the idea, it should develop naturally on its own.

Woot! Isha has a boyfriend ^_^. We had agreed on that we should slow down a bit, but everything seems to be goin good.
