hope1975 Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 I have a friend who appears to be very interested in me, but we also have a business relationship & I'm not sure if he is interested purely on a business level, or if it may be something more. There is alot of long eye contact when we get together & he tells me he loves me & cares about me. He doesn't like any of the guys I date, and yet nothing has happened between us. There has been occasional touching (runs his leg up mine, hugs me) but nothing else has happened. He's told me in the past he doesn't feel "that way" about me, but can feelings change?, because he's been alot more attentive & flirty in the past couple of months. He's opened up to me alot more & bought me into his personal life a bit more (ie: introduced me to his friends & family) The whole situation is confusing me. Any opinions would be appreciated
Poboy Posted April 25, 2007 Posted April 25, 2007 if he's told you he doesnt feel that way , he doesnt feel that way. can feelings change ... sure it can but not likely. so what you want for this? friendship or more. also mixing business and love stuff is not recommended...
Author hope1975 Posted April 26, 2007 Author Posted April 26, 2007 I guess you're right about not mixing business & love stuff...because we will both be partners in the business I gues it could cause huge issues down the track. I think there was a time when I wanted more from this..right now I'm pretty confused about how I feel. Part of me is starting to think it may not be a good idea to go into business with this man because of that, but at the same time I don't want to pass up this fantastic opportunity he's offered me. He's a great guy & I love him very much as a person, but how do I switch off my feelings & keep this professional?...or should I walk away & perhaps miss a great opportunity...I'm really confused
Poboy Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 it all depends on what you really want ... business and chance of making lot of cash which is never bad compared to dating him and always living the risk of something goes wrong and ruin everything ... love , friendship and business. im a businessman and will tell you to keep it professional and date other guys or wait for one. as for switch off those feelings, you have to remind yourself that you are in this for the work aspect , building your future , financial stability etc only and nothing more... it depends if you are that mentally strong and have the business gene in you & that your only goal in this : Achieving Success.
Author hope1975 Posted April 26, 2007 Author Posted April 26, 2007 yes the business is the most important thing here...especially as I don't really know how I feel about him, I've worked hard to get where I am today, and don't want to blow an awesome opportunity like this, for something that may fall on it's face. I'm a pretty strong person & have dealt with alot of crap in my life, I should be able to put whatever feelings I have behind me & focus on keeping this professional. I hope
