I'm fallin' for my BGF

  • Smooching secrets from real guys
My BGF and I hang out all the time and I feel like I can tell him anything. Lately though, I’ve been feeling like I want to be more than “just friends.”

 

We joke around a lot and most of the time it ends up having something to do with us going out. Sometimes I think he likes me back but others I feel like all he wants is to be friends and he’s just joking around.

 

I’m so confused! What should I do?

 

HIS ANSWER: "Try to spend a little more time with him, maybe even just the two of you, so you can get a better idea of his feelings. If that doesn't work, you can talk to his friends about it to see if they know, or maybe even ask him yourself. A confident girl who isn't afraid to say what she's feeling is rarely a bad thing."

 

DECODED: If you can’t tell from how he acts when it’s just the two of you, you may have to ask. Don’t be shy!

 

YOUR MOVE: Invite him over to play some Wii. Just be casual about it and see if sparks fly. If that goes well, tell him you had a good time and would love to hang out again. If he agrees, go to the movies or do something else a little less buddy-buddy.

Okay, so I like my bgf, but I don't know if he likes me! We talk about everything and all my gal friends say we'd make a perfect couple... But neither of us can date yet. To add to my problems, one of my best girl friends recently told him she liked him, and he told her he liked her back. I HATE fighting over boys with my friends, and I really want her to be happy because I value her friendship... But at the same time I am like "It should be me! Get your hands off my man" in my head. So HELP! Is there anything I can do?

 

Hey! talk to her about it. telling her how you feel will make you feel better for sure.

MOD MOD MOD MOD (: Hey! Soo there's this guy that i am crazyyy about! He is so nice & sweet & funny. We text eachother almost everyday. I think he likes me too. He told me once that he did so i suppose he still does. & he knows i like him. I know this sounds weird but everytime i see a picture of him my heart litterally goes crazy & my breathing gets weird! Do you have any tips or ideas that could get him to tell me if he likes me without me having to just flatout ask him? Thank you sooo much! (: <3

 

 

Hey girly girl! I'd increase your alone time with him, and hang together as much as possible. When he gets more comfortable with you, he'll be more likely to tell you Smile

My boyfriend moved away a while ago (over 2 hours away), and no one has any way of talking to him. When we first started dating, he told me that he knew he was going to move at some point, and that I had to be ready to break up. I have no way of talking to him, but I wanted to stop dwelling on the fact that I might never see him again, and I asked one of my BGF's to our school's Sadie Hawkin's dance. He said yes, and shortly after, one of my friends came up to me and gave me a phone number so I can talk to my bf again. I can't get myself to call him and tell him its over, and I don't know what to do.




Hey girl, I think the fact you two aren't talking or seeing each other more or less silently signals it's over. You can't have a relationship with no communication. I'd suggest calling him for closure but understand this is the way it has to work out. It's not the two of you, it's distance.

Honey just ask him. If he's truly your best friend, he'll accept the fact you like him even if he doesn't share those feelings.

You could always ask your friends how they interpret your interactions with your BGF. My bestie told me for six months before I liked my best guy friend, (now boyfriend of 6 months), that he liked me. I ignored her, claimed it couldn't be true. Finally, after months of her harassing me and telling me the two of us just fit, I started liking him. I finally took the leap of faith to tell him and found out he had liked me for those six prior months. Now we're as happy as ever.
And if you are concerned about losing the friendship with the new type of relationship- don't be. Just make sure you still talk and you can still tell each other everything. It really makes the relationship easier.

Never be afraid to shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land on a star.

And he told me a few months ago he liked me.. I very rarly talk to him in school since i never see him.. Wat do u suggest i do??




Hey girlie. I'm not sure what to tell you to do. Think about if you want to pursue him or not. If you do, try to find time to hang out or talk outside of FB. I wouldn't try to pursue him until you do that so you can get to know him a little better.

I like my BGF. I use to like my other BGF (I have 2 lol) a little bit ago, and I had liked him for 4 years. Now I like my other one, and we have gotten really close. We text each other, and we wait for each other before we leave school, so we can walk to our bus together. He rubbed off a lot of habits on me, and whenever I;m around him I feel happy. He suspects I like him but we ignore it. I just don't know if he likes me or not. I would be ok with it if he didn't only because i am only in 8th grade, and it wouldn't be the end of the world, and my old crush didn't like me back. I am kind of use to boys not liking me like that. Frown What should I do?




hey! I think you should just keep your friendship strong. like you said, you're pretty young and it keeps the mystery alive to just keep hanging out and having fun. who needs labels?

MOD MOD MOD...Alright so Im falling for my BGF. He became my bgf only 4 months ago but now he texts me every night, is always calling me, and is always by me in the classes we have togather. Im not sure yet if he likes me but if he does there would be a problem cuz he liked my best friend 3 months ago and she liked him back. She ended up being the one to eventually tell him she wasnt that interested in a reltionship. The problem is that the other day she finally told me the reason shes been giving me the cold sholder is because she doesnt like how Im always talking to him. What should I do? I really like him...

 

Hey chica,

Tough situation! He's giving you a lot of signals, but would you really want to lose your best friend for him? Talk to your friend about your feelings for him. She may be angry at first, but she should understand that she turned him down, making him perfectly available! In the end, whatever she says, make sure that you're a good friend to her. Our girls come first!

Hey girl, choose the one you like most and put out hints you're interested in dating him. I wouldn't do that to both though in case they both like you back or find out you're doing it to the other too (then they'd just think you're a tease and playing both of them -- eck!).

I have a little guy prob. Everytime I become best friends with a guy, I end up liking him. Later, I always find out that he likes me back. But just when things seem to be going great and he's about to ask me out, he does something stupid, like ask my best friend out, and breaks my heart. Then, we stop being friends and never talk again. EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Any advice?




Hey girl, I'd try hinting sooner you like him, especially if you're getting the vibes he likes you. Chances are he just didn't think you saw him in that light so he set his target on someone else. Show him you do.

i'm really confused right now. i have had the biggest crush on this guy.and i'm pretty sure he likes me back. this would seem like a could thing but from my point of view it could make my life even more difficult. i keep trying to forget about him and i was finally over him this past week then he came up to me after my basketball game and told me how well i played. i fell for him again -__- the problem is; one of my old friends used to go out with him. he broke up with her so she still has feelings for him (i think). (lets call my crush - bob, my old friend "jane" and my other friend that used to like bob - lucy) lucy used to have a crush on bob and she asked jane if she could dance with him at a dance. jane said it was fine and that she was over bob. so they danced, and jane got wicked mad at her. now there is a dance friday and i'm afraid the same thing is gonna happen to me...please help! i dont want jane mad at me but i really, REALLY like this guy! sorry its so long!(:




Hey babe,

It's clear that Bob and Jane both mean a lot to you, so you should probably sit down with Jane and talk about this. Tell her you understand they had history, but they're broken up now and you'd really like to pursue it further. Make sure she understands how much you value her friendship: you're not doing this to hurt her, you're doing it to explore your own feelings. Emphasize this! That way, she'll feel less like you're on his side. Still, if she gets upset, remember that you may have to end up deciding not to pursue Bob. But first, try to make her realize that part of being a friend is supporting your friends through things, even if they may not be exactly what you want. Go into this together and you'll work it out <3

I have a crush on my BGF and he is aware that I like him. He said that he would talk about it but it seems like we both can't get the nerve to talk about it. I think we felt it too soon, since we both are talking a lot still. However, I'm confused whether he likes me or not since he flirts with me from time to time. What should I do and what does this mean?




Hey girlie! The next step is to talk to him about it!! Since he already said that he would, this is great news for you! If you can't get up the nerve, try doing it over the phone. It might be easier that way.

MOD!!!!
I have liked my bgf for a long time. We have been bestfriends since birth. Literally. We hang out all the time , and I know he is into me.[He told me tonight he liked me back , when we were watching a movie]. The problem is he is moving to a new state at the end of the school year or even before. I like him so much , it makes me cry to even think about it. He is scared of getting too attached , because it will make it harder on his move. So I don't think he is gonna ask me out. I don't want ot make anything hard on him , or his moving because I know he is majorly upset about it. Should I keep tryng to be more than friends? It just makes me upset to know that he won't ever be mine , after liking him for soo long. I don't know if I should just move on , and be just friends , or keep trying to be more than friends. What should I do??? Thank you so much!!!




Hey girl, I think you should talk this out with him and see what he thinks. I think if you two have had feelings simmering for a while now and you both know you like each other, you can't just be friends like you were before. I say go for it and see what happens. This is your one trial run and there's no penalties. It'll be hard either way to lose such a close friend, but you two may be able to make long distance work.

I am so confused, My best guy friend and I met when we were in third grade, I used to like him a LOT. Then I moved... to Germany. Three years have gone by and I have gotten used to the fact that I should just think of him as a friend. We talk all the time.
Then a couple weeks ago. One of my friends (who is from the same class) came to visit. She told me that he is majorly crushing on me, and the feelings I had came rushing back. I am moving back to the states in 10 months, but three states away from him. I know I am going to be able to visit, but I want to date him (and I am pretty sure he does too). I don't know if I am going to be able do the distance though. There are probably going to be lots of guys that are crush worthy where I am going to move. What should I do?




hey girlie. I would wait and see. Long distance can be hard when you are in your twenties so I think it can be even harder in middle school or high school. I wouldn't wait out for him when it's not likely that you will see him very often. But you live in Germany--I'm so jealous! That must be amazing!

My bgf (who I've known since birth) asked me to formal, which I'm thrilled about, but ever since he asked me, we've had nothing to talk about. We're way past the "get to know each other phase" so it feels like there's nothing new to discuss! Nothing new or exciting, and since hes a tad shy, I'm scared he won't handle awkwardness well. Please, I am begging, provide me with something to talk to him about!

Hey girlie! Believe me, I've definitely been there. You are just going to have to be a little assertive during the date, which means act with confidence in order to bring out his own. Don't expect him to lead the conversation, so if it gets quiet, just bring up whatever is on your mind like something you saw on the news or some new random fact you learned in class. It can be a bit tough, but if you hang in there the guy will really appreciate the effort you're bringing into the date

My friend used to sit next to a boy but at the time didn't like him. He used to flirt with her. Now that they don't sit next to each other, my friend realized that she likes him, but they stopped talking. He flirts with other girls. They were in a class group, and things were ok- They sometimes jokingly fought and flirted. now that it is over, he hasn't kept up with her and they barely talk but he continues to flirt with many other girls. They sometimes look at each other straight in the eyes, and sometimes she gets the feeling that he likes her. She really does like him and want him to like her back again but she's too shy to say anything or talk to him. What should my friend do?

Sorry If I post this more than once..
OK I used to have this BGF and we were soo close.
When we were on FB, I sent him a link to this song and all of a sudden he logged off on me. Later that night he was on again I said hey and all of a sudden he logged. I sent him 2 messages asking him what was up, and still nothing. Then the next day he wasn't in school. Then the next day. It went for about 2 WEEKS. When he was finally back at school I asked him what was up on what he did, he just said "I don't use FB that much anymore." Then he was gone again, for the entire week. I'm so confused about this? Did I do something wrong?




Hey! sorry about your problem! whatever is going on in this dude's life is not your fault.  best you can do is give him some space and be there for him. good luck!

He lied to me and told me he didn't tell him, but later admitted that he did. I got really mad at him and told him I couldn't trust him, but then he tried to turn it on me and tell me that I have trust issues and that I can definitely trust the guy he told not to tell anyone. I lied and said I didn't like my crush anymore, but that I was still angry because he broke his promise. He said I'd get over it eventually, which really ticked me off. I told him never to talk to me again. I have every period plus lunch with him, so I can't avoid him. What do I do?!?! Sorry this is so long!

 

Hey girlie. I think it may be best to tell him that you were dissapointed that he betrayed your trust but also that you can forgive him. You don't want to lose a friend over it, do you? Be the bigger person.

MOD! I have a few problems. I plan on telling my BGF I like him... but there's three problems. 1) I can't get him alone! His computer's broken, so that leaves facebook out of the picture, and he's always in crowds when I can talk to him. Taking him out of a group would make things awkward. 2) I don't know if he likes me back! We talk, and we know practically everything about each other. My friend Nathan keeps saying we're destined for each other, and mentioned, "It's a shocker you two aren't dating" during our game of tag. We don't say anything... except Matt (my BGF) runs after Nathan. 3) I don't know how to tell him! There's so many ways. Like... asking for advice, asking who he likes, then there's the, "Would it be awkward if a guy and girl were best friends, and one liked the other?" ... So, needless to say, I'm hopelessly confused. -Sarah

 

Hey girlie. I know it's hard! But try just spending more time with him and then seeing if he likes anyone at the moment. You don't know til you ask! Good luck.

MOD Hey! I'm planning on telling my BGF of 7 years I like him! Three problems. 1) I can't get ahold of him online, nor can I tell him in person. He's always in a crowd, and pulling him out of that crowd would draw sooo much attention! 2) I don't know if he likes me back! He's sending mixed signals. 3) I don't know how to tell him! I mean, there's so many ways to. Ask him who he likes, ask for advice... Please help! Please and thank you Laughing -Sarah

 

Hey girlie. Check my answer from your last comment!

My bgf likes a girl who i do not trust AT ALL. I don't like him and i'm not jealous, but IDK what to tell him because i don't want to hurt his feelings. How do i tell him? or should i not? im scared about what could happen if i tell him or he finds out for himself. What's best?

Hey girlie! As much as I know you wish to tell him your true feelings about this girl, the best advice I can give is to keep it to yourself. When I told my bff that I didn't like the guy she broke up with, she ended up getting back together with him the next day and things just ended up super awkward between us after that. If you really want to keep your friendship with your bgf, then you are going to have to just let him judge this girl for himself

Ok so im friends with this guy and well I liked him and really terible things happened and now i just want to be like really great bffs with him. But it feels like my so called friend is lieing to him about me. And I know that will ruin things because he likes her so he will belive her, shes doing this cause were in a fight now but i dont want her to do that cause me and him are already not that close as friends.
I dont know what i can do to make sure shes not doing anything like that and become his new bff.
PLEASE HELP! :/
From: Troubled Girl, DinaSelena

Hey girlie! All you can do is talk to the guy before she does. Just tell him that you guys have been in a fight and that she may say some untrue things about you. Guys are pretty good about being able to tell whose telling the truth and whose telling a lie. If he still doesn't believe you then would you really want to be friends with someone who doesn't believe you?

hi, i was wondering if you could help me with something...i really want a bgf. I'm friendly with guys and talk to them easily, but I don't really have any guy friends that I'm close to and can really talk about anything with. I want a guy friend like that. How?




Hey girl, it's all about just getting to know your guy friends more: hang out with them outside of school, let the relationship develop over time. Getting a new friend is easy; making a close friend takes time and effort.

Hey girl, by taking it slowly and figuring out whether you like the idea of him as a BF because you know him well or you really like like him for the person he is. Feelings like that take time to develop. I'd take it easy for a while and see how your feelings build (if they do) before doing anything rash like telling him or your bro.

I have had feelings for some of my BGF so its a natural thing for that to happen. One of my good friends just started dating her bgf over winter break and now they are super serious. So if you start dating him that may happen to you because its like you have a head start on the relationship because you know each other so well.

Just dont let it become a FWB kind of relationship, because that isnt the best. One of you will end up feeling like you were used in the end.

okay so i like this guy in my math class, and it seems like he likes me back, cuz hes always smiling/staring at me, trying to make me laugh, flirting, etc. but when we talk on facebook, it seems like he only sees me as a friend. he trusts me enough to tell me his problems and stuff, but one night, over facebook, he told me that his ex-gf told him she loved him, and that he loves her back, but doesnt know how to say it. im so confused. does he like me or not? help??
thanks
maddie

Hey Maddie,

He could like you, but it sounds like there are two things going on: 1) Things are being lost in translation over Facebook chat. It's tough for people to express true emotions online and it's also hard to get a sense of flirting/crushing when you don't have the person there to watch their gestures/facial expressions! If you get a good feeling when you're talking to him in person, that's probably much more accurate than the one you get from chatting with him online. And 2) He still has feelings for his ex. Sure, he might like you...but we can all like two people at once. The problem here is that he has history with her already and is wondering what would happen if they tried again. It's a natural curiosity and that probably won't go away unless he either tries things again with his ex or gives it plenty of time for it to pass. Just keep chatting with him and be a good friend - see how it goes from here <3

Here's a tip for all the girls who have liked their BGF and don't know if they should tell him or not. GO FOR IT! If you guys really are good friends, then if it doesn't work out, it won't ruin your friendship. And if it does work out, then hooray! SmileIt's likely that he may have, does, or will feel the way that you do, seeing as you are so close. Need more advice? Write on my profile!

Haha! I went through the same thing! Let's call him J. J, and I have known each other for about 5 years, I'd say. We typically see each other during the summer, since he lives with his mom during the school year, except on Winter Break and stuff like that. I could tell he liked me and I liked him back as well. 2 summers ago, J. asked me out, and then dumped me through text the next day, saying "he was embarassed and hadn't known what he had been thinking when he asked me out." Last summer though, when I saw him, he flirted with me ALOT. I'm still confuzzled about this. We'll never figure boys out, I think. Smile

One of my best friends keeps making me feel really bad. I was at a sleepover with her and a couple other friends and I told the story about when an annoying friend of my other friend called me hot. (This kid is super annoying and harrassed my brother so I don't like him) but then my friend said he was probably kidding. It kinda hurt a little bit and everytime I tell her about a guy asking me out or something she says they are kidding. We have had lots of problems in the past about other things and I need a way to shut her down but I don't know how because her words can be very poisenous. HELP ME!

Alright so I really need some help here. Okay so me and my best friend flirt allllll the time. We say a lot of seriously flirty stuff and we have talked about the fact that we both enjoy it. I am straight and could never see myself being with a girl but then why do I love to flirt with my best friend so much? I am confused. Help me! Thanks! (:




Hey girlie! Sometimes there are individuals who feel that they like both sexes and its called "bisexual." Many celebrities these days claim they are bisexual such as Lady Gaga and Drew Barrymore. It's perfectly normal. But it you feel you could never see yourself dating this girl, then you must stop the flirty before you end up leading her on and disappointing her.

I've known this guy since 4th grade. Now we're in 7th grade, and I'm absolutely in love with him. He's one of the best friends I've ever had, and I think he likes me... But he secretly admitted to liking my friend in September. He said he was over her back in October though. Even though my friend knows I like him, she flirts with him A LOT.Also, when she was mad at me in November, she told him I liked him, but he didn't believe her. I'm not allowed to have a BF until next year, but I've been debating telling hi I like him. He invited me to the local high school football game and we hung out and laughed and a lot of people think we're going out, but I don't know if I want to mess anything up.
