PinkToes Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 We were involved briefly about 15 years ago, although it wasn't serious and we pretty much agreed to split up. And we've been great friends ever since, while we've both been in relationships with other people. He's a lot of fun to hang out with, although we only see each other a few times a year because we live about an hour apart. So now we're both single, I think for the first time since we were together way back when. And I think something has changed... I saw him last week and I'm starting to think he's interested in being more than friends. We always hug goodbye, but this time the hug seemed to go on & on & on, and then he leaned in for a kiss. I turned away. But then I started thinking. We had talked about my taking the train to visit him, and when I was discussing times, he said it wouldn't make sense to just come for the day -- we should go away somewhere for a night or two. Small stuff, but now I kind of wonder what's up. We've always had such an easy friendship, I never even thought about what might be going through his head. And ever since we split up so long ago, I've never had any interest in pursuing another relationship with him. That door has been closed and locked so tight for so long, it's just totally off the table, in my head. So I'm not sure what to do now. And I really don't have to do anything, I know; I mean we're still just friends. But here's the thing. The thought of his maybe being interested has sort of turned me off. And it makes me not want to put as much into the friendship. It seems kinda nuts to consider talking to him about it, because he hasn't done anything, really. I mean he certainly isn't coming on too strong or anything. But last week I just sensed something different. And it is bothering me, for some reason. I don't know what to do.
