hoke Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 You know... like telling somebody you're attracted to them, even though you know it's hopeless, and then beating yourself over the head because you're afraid you might have ruined a really great friendship?Yeah...

phuturephunk Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 . . . all the time . . . . . . Or on the flipside, NOT telling them how you really feel . . . It's all about the personal happiness . . . One needs to relate feelings like that from time to time or they get all bottled up inside and start damaging your soul . . . Don't sweat it . . . . .

cintron Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Yeah i've done it a lot. It's alright though... if you're really chill about it and don't look like you're going to pounce on them at any second, they shouldn't be all paranoid and avoid you. Regardless of whether they're attracted to you or not they should still respect how you feel and respect you as a person.If they distance themsevles from you and try to keep you away, then that's just bullshit.That's when i'd break out the pipe wrench and go for broke.

merkie Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 I do not think it should ruin your friendship. It may make her feel uncomfortable, but that should disappear if you are truly friends. Friends should be able to tell each other everything...right?:rainbow: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPYGIRL3 Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 I always say that words are like birds, once set them free, you can't ever cage them again.....We all say things we shouldn't or don't meant too...... It's human nature to act on your feelings..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nSyNcBaBy Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 a friend of mine tells me quite often how he feels about me... and has felt this way for 6 years.... and weve been really good friends this whole time.... so, if u really are good friends and know that nothing will come of it, then u should be able to look passed that and just maintain a normal friendship.... we joke about it now actually...

fantazy Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Originally posted by hoke You know... like telling somebody you're attracted to them, even though you know it's hopeless, and then beating yourself over the head because you're afraid you might have ruined a really great friendship?Yeah... the way I interpret it, you just needed to get it off your chest, regardless of the outcome. you shouldn't regret it, instead praise yourself for being honest. sometimes when you expose your feelings it makes a friendship stronger.

Kuro Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 I've been in the exact situation more than once. It sucks, but sometimes it's better to not keep those things inside. Hope things don't get weird or awkward for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therunner Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 I never regret the things I have done, only the things that I haven't. Don't sweat the small stuff. Just think if you told her and she said yes. If you have never told her you would never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
synderella420 Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 yes......a lot of times I regret things I say...cuz I say dumb shit when I am mad.....I take my anger out with words....not a good thing to do...but my mother is like that..so I guess thats where I got it from (and if anyone knows how it is to have an irish tempered mother they know where I am coming from) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm much better now, but I used to have a *horrible* temper! Not that I'd scream, but I'd get very vicious with my words... that's one kind of thing that I definitely do regret... it doesn't do anybody any good.
