Re: Confession thread

[(Anonymous)]

I'm 99% sure that my friend has a crush on me. Again. And I feel like such an idiot, because I've flirted back at them even though I'm not sure if I feel the same way about them. The annoying part is that even if I did return their feelings, I still wouldn't want to date them because I'm at a point in my life where I'm scared to let anyone too close. fuck.

I'm sorry anon. It's an awkward situation. My friend just confessed that she still has a crush on me and I can't stop worrying that I should be handling it differently than I am.

Re: Confession thread

It's a no-win situation for both parties, I guess? On one hand keep thinking that we managed to stay friends the first time this happened, so surely we can get over this one as well. But at the same time I'm afraid that no, we won't, and things will be super awkward from now on. Especially because I feel like I've been doing a piss poor job handling this.

I hope everything's going to be ok with you and your friend. It might take some time and a few awkward conversations, but it sounds like you did your best to handle the situation correctly.

Re: Confession thread

My friend once told me that I'm the nicest person to have an unrequited crush on, so I guess I'm doing okay?

I hope things turn out all right with your friend.

Re: Confession thread

When you say again do you mean it's the same friend or you've been in this situation with another friend? Either way I think you need to be upfront and ask them about it and then tell them how you feel.

Re: Confession thread

[(Anonymous)]

It's the same friend. I've actually told them that I'm not looking for a relationship right now, but that's about as direct as I've been about this situation. I want to deal with this properly, but at the same I'm scared to. Because either I've been completely wrong about the situation and things get really awkward, or I was totally right and things still get really awkward.

It's probably better to be a little more direct, but I possibly only say that because I've been on the other side of a situation like that and felt I was getting mixed signals (even though at one point he said something very similar)...so that may have more to do with the person who I was in that situation with. IDK. I hope you guys are able to clear the air without added awkwardness.

Re: Confession thread

AYRT

No, you definitely have a point. I don't want to lead my friend on, because I wouldn't want to date them even if I did have my own feelings figured out. And I wouldn't blame my friend for thinking that I was sending mixed signals, because it took me a few weeks to figure out what was going on, and after that I couldn't do much else besides go "ah, fuck. Probably shouldn't have flirted right back at them".

Being more direct about things would help, because the longer this drags on, the more awkward it's going to get. And while I have a feeling that it's not going to be pretty, talking about it is the right choice. Sigh. Doesn't mean that I have to look forward to it, right?

Best of luck, and I hope it works out in the best way possible for all parties involved. And no, it's not fun to talk about awkward things with friends. :/
