Question Does He Like Me?? Should I Make A Move?

I've liked this guy for about a year and a half..and he doesn't feel the same way he just wants to be friends...but he flirts with me online and stuff, and when i confront him about it he says we're just friends. He knew i liked him, but then i told him i didnt anymore. So now he thinks i just like him as a friend. All of my friends say we would look so cute together and i think we would too. I actually think i'm in love with him. And my friends say that he looks at me when i'm not looking but i don't believe them. One time when we were talking he said that he would go out with me if he liked me more than a friend because i'm definatly his type of girl. My friends are telling me i should make a move. I'm just really confused and i don't know what to do.

PLEASE HELP!

Your answer lies in these 2 statements. Read them over and over and I think you will know what you must do.

Please don't wait for something that is not going to happen. You deserve more.

Sorry to have to tell you this, but that pretty much sums it up.

For your own happiness, you need to come to terms with the fact that he wants you as a friend only. It's terrible when someone feels s/he loves another who cannot offer her/him the same level of affection as she/he wants to give. Nonetheless, this often happens, and it is very likely the case here.

Unless you are willing to only have him as a friend and nothing more, then I fear you may be better just moving on. He was honest with you with respect to his limits, and it's honorable that he never strung you along.

You may well have to distance yourself from him, as it may be quite challenging to be around him, while at the same time desiring a deeper committment from him. This may prove very wearing on you, emotionally. My advice is simple, hunn. Move on to find a guy who can share the same level of committment with you, as you with him.

Peace.

Curt
