So...my friend an I hung out tonight. We've been hanging out every few days for the past 2 weeks, going to restaurants and out for ice cream and stuff. Pretty innocent. There has been some heavy flirting tho.

Anyway. He came over tonight. It started off innocent enough just watching basketball an hanging out. But we ended up spooning on the couch and holding hands (fingers laced). He had also given me a scalp massage.

So before he left he said, "well, there was no sexual tension at all" and laughed and slapped me on the butt. I don't know what came over me but I told him that I had a crush on him. He said, "I think it's just cuz we've been spending so much time together." So then he told me he'd text me when he got in and gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

Ugh. I felt awful. Like, wtf came over me..why did I say that?!

So he texted me when he got in and said good night with a kissy face 😘. I asked him to forget what I said and not to be awkward. He said don't feel bad "besides, I kinda like you too"

So now what?! I feel like I'm in high school again. Ugh.

Telling him you think you have a crush on him was definitely fine after the stuff he did with you. No way a guy spoons and the rest of that if he's not attracted to the lady.

As far as what's next, if you'd rather (because he will)... let him lead the way. You're open, so just see where things take the both of you. You don't really have to figure something in specific out right now. You both like each other, more stuff will happen because of that

Enjoy! I love how comfortable (after the initial newness and 'this is definitely not how we've been knowing each other but I kinda like it' awkwardness settles) the fire is when it's lit between friends. This thread is really cute.

I'm glad you told him! I think he was maybe a bit startled at first and didn't know how to react, but since he said he likes you too, maybe this will go someplace.

Crushes are fun, enjoy it no matter how it turns out.

Yay I was just wondering what happened with this! It's great you told him. And I agree, just let things progress on their own. Don't push anything or force lovey dovey behaviors, and enjoy it! How exciting and fun!

Sigh. I miss having a crush.

Thanks everyone. I'm not sure how I feel anymore about telling him. Part of me can't even believe that I said it. In person he was so awkward about it, but once he got home he was better. I agree that he was startled.

I guess I just felt like, he hadn't really made a move yet, and we were spooning and stuff, it had to have been clear that I liked him. When he didn't say it back right away I was thinking "wtf?! Do you spoon with all of your friends?!"

I feel better that he told me he likes me too...and he said he wishes he had made a move and kissed me. I just don't want things to be awkward now. I'm kind of worried because he really is a great friend and I don't wanna lose that.

I don't think that will happen honestly.as long as you don't force anything and keep it light,I think it'll work perfectly. Have y'all hung out since you told him or did I miss something?

When you see him again,just act normal. I know it's really awkward right now, but just don't put any pressure on him or yourself. I can't stress that enough. Let it flow on it's own.

I'm happy for you!!!

Thanks. I literally told him at like 4 am this morning, so no we haven't spoken or hung out.

We usually communicate everyday but now I feel kinda weird about texting him and I'm going to a concert tonight so I know he'll probably try to give me some space. The real test will be tomorrow if we don't speak. But I am going to give both of us some time to process everything.

I still cannot believe I had the balls to tell him. I had to reread my texts when I woke up to make sure I wasn't dreaming!

I just wanted to say that this is the most adorable thread that I've read in a long time.

From what you've written it seems like you're in deep like with this guy, and he appears to like you a lot as well. Just be patient and go with the flow. You told him that you liked him because that's how you felt in the moment, and it's okay. Yea, it startled him and you a bit but that's okay.

I hope this works out for you!

Don't make it awkward by not texting. Just text like you'd usually do, without blowing him up. If he feels like you're being weird it'll throw him off too. That's the main thing we girls do, we start being weird and then they're freaked out. Lol. I think it's great you told him. And great he feels the same way. I would've done it myself, and have before.

Don't bring anything up about what was discussed last night. And don't let your mind run away from you lol I know it's easier said than done though. Keep it as regular as possible.

Does he usually have a schedule he follows on communication? Like he'll text at a certain time everyday or whatnot? Even if he does,and seems to not be following that schedule, don't get upset or start doubting, he's probably just thinking the same thing you are and doesn't want to make you feel weird.

Okay, so I sort of already texted him regarding last night. Nothing serious, but I woke up to a text from him saying he "kinda" wanted to kiss me but just didn't. It was from last night but I fell asleep before he sent it.

My text just said, "hey, I totally fell asleep before I got that text, I was so tired! But I kinda wanted you to kiss me too..." it sounds kinda dumb not that I retype it, but I just didn't want him to think I was being weird by not responding last night.

We don't have a text schedule. Just whomever texts first whenever. Sometimes we might go a day without talking, but it's no big deal. Things are so easy between is...no muss, no fuss!

I'm glad you guys think this is cute! I was concerned y'all were gonna find it annoying! Lol

Nah it's not annoying at all. It's nice to see someone happy like this. Im excited to see how your situation pans out because I think it's gonna be great, especially because you guys started out as friends first...that makes a huge difference. All the silly get-to-know you stuff is out of the way.

The text you sent was perfect. You addressed last night in a casual way,and explained yourself for not responding because he could have easily mistaken it for awkward behavior.

I just read this whole thread and it's making me miss having someone to like. Aaah!

That's mostly all ... besides that obviously all you have to do is just let this happen because it's already halfway there.

How was today? Sweet!

IAmJordanNicole

Everything is good actually. We haven't seen eachother since then, but we talk all the time just like always.

We had a discussion about everything and we actually had a laugh about it. He said he had planned on kissing me when he left but I threw him off with my confession.

We've decided we'll take it slow and see where it goes. We both feel the same way about one another and are both a little confused about all of these feelings. Our friendship is really important to both of us and we just wanna make sure that we don't ruin it.

Okay, another update...

So today my friend had some car trouble and had to take the bus to work. So after he got off we were texting and he said that his bus wouldn't come for 40 minutes so I offered to pick him up.

When we got to his house, I planned on leaving right away but somehow time REALLY go away from us and we spent like 3 hours just talking in the car. It was really kind of awkward because we were really flirty but no one made any moves...

So when he finally was about to go inside he gave me a hug(per usual), but the hug was really long, like totally awkwardly long...like 30 seconds...lol. I knew he was probably considering what to do next, but I couldn't help but to laugh a little. So after the hug we both let go, then he went in for the kiss!!

But it was like, a peck...a long peck, but no tongue...wtf? Then we both looked at eahother and smiled and he goes, "I just wanted to give you that. Text me when you get home, good night" So I was partially elated and partially confused. I mean, I felt something when we kissed even though it wasn't a REAL kiss.

So I get home and text him to tell him I'm home and he says, "cool beans" lol So I said, "you're lame" referring to that. Then he goes on to say he knows he was lame and he's sorry for the kiss and that he'll never do that again So I told him not to feel that way and that I was glad that he did it and that at least the hard part is outta the way. But he still seems a little weirded out. We have plans to go out this weekend, so hopefully everything is okay. I think that we are both over thinking this whole thing and we're kinda screwing it up. Also, if I do get to see him this weekend, I will make the move so that he knows that I'm still interested. I just really hope things are still good...I'm kinda bummed...
