The news a friend I’ve been friends with for a few months and I really do really care for him ever since I’ve been like hang out with them I just feel like going to have these feelings I think I just might be falling for a friend I mean we knew each other for a while I mean I’m always out there and I’m just so you know I really do like this person he’s a guy so it’s kind of hard I mean it’s different when it’s a girl or a guy but I just really am falling for someone anyone has a similar situation and how did it went
I’ve crossed the bridge from “friends” to “couple” a few times with both males and females and it never worked out well. After you cross that bridge you can’t really go back either. There’s a lot more to being a couple than there is to being friends; more expectations, more freedoms and more restrictions but they’re different expectations, freedoms and restrictions than they used to be. And I’ve noticed people tend to act differently depending on the nature of a relationship. They’ll be different when interacting with a significant other than they would with a friend, a best friend or with family. Most of those friends I’ve ended up dating weren’t the same person I fell in love with anymore after we started dating. We’ve tried to go back to being friends or stay friends after a break up but it never works and it’s not at all the same as it used to be. It’s worse if one person isn’t content with just being friends but tries to because its that or nothing. It always ends with the two of us never seeing one another again.
If I were you I would think about whether you want to risk losing him if it doesn’t work out.

I fell in love with my best friend 15yrs ago and when I found the courage to tell him he’d told me he felt the same way! We ended up living together and we got married! Unfortunately 4.5yrs into our marriage “cracks” began to show, he cheated and we’ve been separated 5yrs in may. We now get on and he’s settled down with the girl he cheated on me with but I mourned the loss of my best friend not my marriage or husband

Friend for ten years. We are coming up in it 10th wedding anniversary for a total of 20 years of friendship. I have known her the majority of my life.
I’ve done this a number of times when I was young and it never lead to an “all the way” relationship though I dearly wished it had. Of course I guess I could say that one friend led to dating and eventually she became my wife so that one worked out really well.
The friends were male and the one who became my wife was female, obviously…haha.
I dated one of my high school friends after me and my ex broke up, we had a good time while it lasted but unfortunately I was in poor health at the time and it didn’t last long. Thankfully, we’re both cool and the breakup was clean, and we’re still friends today!
That said, my friend group is pretty open in our relationships and we tend to have “group activities” together on occasion — the joys of being young and bisexual.
In general I don’t think you should get into a romantic relationship with someone wouldn’t be friends with.
