Sand&Water Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 Here is the gist of My Burning Desire. Bare with me for a moment. The desire is to run off with a friend of mine, hand in hand. Without notice, and in the heat of the night, to drive out into the country side just before sunrise. This particular man, even in the short amount of time I have known him, has veered and touched buried parts of my being that I thought would always remain in total isolation. Yearning to breathe the same morning freshness with him, is only the tip of the iceberg. The longing to stand with him in the middle of open meadows and valleys, and kiss his gentle lips is nothing to be proclaimed of near love. Reach out, in the midst of the budding spec of time, and hug him -tightly -knowing that his soothing presence is only the start of a remarkable adventure into the life that could be -but nonetheless, a beaming hope of union -is to rest assured. To run into the vast land of wheat, and grass with him in tow while laughing, and hearing his voice echo against the sky in abundance of the newness of the day. To captivate the wholesome view of the sea and land in contrast to the sun's rising rays with him by my side, is something I would always look forward to -even if for just a brief minute. Call me crazy, or whatever. But I am NOT crazy. That is how I feel. He doesn't know about this desire, nor my feelings -as I have shown him quite the contrary -and I choose to repress. He blurted out a negative comment at me, which I took very personally. Hurt me, tremendously. It is complicated. Yet, for some reason, I still have this desire. But Why? I don't even know how to look at him anymore. I don't know. I just wanted to get this off my chest. I am going to work hard at maintaining a friendship. God help me! Thank You For Listening, Sand&Water
notmakingsense Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 You didn't post any details of your break-up, but if you were the dumpee -- definitely keep this all to yourself. Post it all here, but continue to not tell him about it -- it will just make him run further away. Spend the time thinking about what makes you feel really good inside -- without having that man in the picture -- then pursue those things. This will help you move on, and once you have started to move on -- your ex and other men will come running after you in those fields!

Oops -- sorry, just re-read your post and realized that this is a friend you are talking about, not an ex! How do you feel about your chances as a couple? Were his negative comments "normal" in light of his thinking of you as a friend -- or were they out of line for friend or boyfriend? If you think that there is potential, and you think he would be receptive, I wouldn't come on to him with all the emotion you are feeling, but I would definitely start giving him hints that you are in to him as more than just a friend.
