A Black Man Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) A few days ago I did something extremely stupid and confessed my feelings for a close female friend of almost 6 years who i've been in love with forever. It was completely out of the blue and though she acted calm enough, even smiled a lil and suggested the type of women i'd end up with. I could tell she was just trying to stay cool. Things probably would've been fine if I'd left it at that adfter we'd parted for the night. But with the influence of alcohol and absolutely terrible adivce from another female friend, I then followed it up with the single most cringe-worthy moment of my life... I haven't heard from her since. Tried calling her once and she hasnt replied I suppose I feel somewhat relieved behind this insurmountable embarrassment but it sucks to have lost her in a moment of madness like that. Is there anything I can do now? Or have I freaked her out for good? Edited May 15, 2012 by A Black Man
gaius Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 I read your unedited version. If you really want back into the friend zone just give it some time. In a few weeks send her another message, one that doesn't remind her of the uncomfortable event that just occurred. Pretend it never happened! Bring up something you always had fun talking about before, as friends. Basically remind of her the times you used to have and communicate you're willing to just be friends without making her talk out loud about it. Maybe she answers, maybe she doesn't. Might as well stick your neck out one more time if her company is that valuable to you.
dasein Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 Why do you want someone in your life whom you have unrequited feelings for? Why not spend the energy you would have spent on this friendship finding someone who feels the same about you? Good luck.
