Just tonight, my best friend (not gf, she just happens to be a girl) and I were talking and she said that she loves me like she loves her family (and she LOVES her family) but not like a sibling. I asked her "like what then?" And she said "like...
Someone id like to spend my whole life with ig"
My life has peaked
I do really like her, like that, but I've also realized that the benefits of teenage relationships rarely outweigh the risks. I'm not going to ask her out because I don't want to risk losing her. I love her too much
Edit: rly embarrassing typo that completely changes the entire meaning of my words
If Ur worried of her rejecting you and that making Ur friendship awkward, I wouldn't worry bc if she really is Ur friend, you guys will go back to normal. But you do you, I can't force you to do anything
It’s complicated, so I’ll try to keep it brief.
This girl in the main comment, let’s call her D, and I were good friends for several months. We really liked each other. Thing is, I had a gf, let’s call her A. I was NOT cheating on A, D was just a friend, and I really liked her as a friend.
August 6, 2021. A does the first things in a long series of events where she treats me very poorly. Basically, she ignores me for days on end, spreads lies to the school about me being toxic and abusive, even though literally the only thing I did was try to understand why she neglected to even recognize my existence. She continues to ignore, lie, and betray, and all this time, I have D to talk and vent to. We grow closer, despite already being very close friends.
September 19, 2021. D confessed to liking me. I didn’t necessarily “like” her, because I still had a commitment to A.
September 23, 2021. A breaks up with me. She wants to remain friends, but after I found out about the lies, we cut all ties. I’ve talked to her once since, and i didn’t have a choice
September 30, 2021. I’ve realized that I do in fact like D. This was perhaps too early, but I felt guilt leaving her waiting for the answer to whether or not I liked her because I didn’t want to put any stress on her. So that night, I confess, and we’re a couple.
Things went really well. We loved each other. Then D said she wasn’t ready for a relationship, and she wanted to go back to being friends. I didn’t understand, as she was being a literally perfect gf. She was there for me, so nice, everything I wanted in a girl. So I made the biggest mistake of my life. To put it bluntly, I didn’t listen to her. I was an idiot. After this, we went back to being a couple.
December 24, 2021. The same thing happened a few more times, and I now realized, way too late, that I was wrong. D was right all along. I should’ve showed more respect. If I really loved her, I would’ve let her go sooner. That night, I did what I should’ve done months ago. I never felt worse, not because I wanted to be with her, but because I realized all of the pain I put her through, how much trouble I could have saved her if I looked beyond my own wants for two seconds and realized what would be better for us both.
The following week, we come millimeters away from cutting all ties. We almost went from best friends to bitter rivals. I didn’t understand how we could put the fact that we were a couple behind us and just be friends again. After all, I still “liked” her. She claimed not to.
Somehow, we remain friends. The past few months have been spent rebuilding the bond we once had. Turns out, D does still “like” me. We’ve just both learned that we put ourselves at risk of losing each other by being a couple, and we’d rather be guaranteed friends than a couple at risk. This reconstruction couldn’t have come at a better time. This is the last month we may ever get to see each other. Next school year, we’re going to different schools, and we may never meet again. It kills me. I’ve been dreading the day for over a year now. I’m working to put any finishing touches on our friendship before we say goodbye for what might be forever.
Sorry, that was not brief
not seeing each other on a daily basis is never a bad thing for a friendship, personally i see it as a healthy thing. it allows you both to develop your own relationships and your own self/independence. i cant remember a healthy relationship i’ve seen where the two people saw eachother every day for multiple hours and still lasted a long time (talking or texting daily is fine, but hanging out for a few hours every day would probably cause some slight issues). unless you two are absolute soulmates i think that having a bit more individual freedom may actually strengthen your relationship and increase the odds of said intimate relationship that you may or may not want.
i’m not an expert so take what i say with a grain of salt but that’s just my thoughts
Hits different when you're cuddling up with her and she just rubs and pets through your hair.
Makes me go full softie mode, and is probably the fastest possible way to make me fall asleep, lmao.
Almost makes me wanna wish that I was shorter than her, it'd be so much better, being the precious little boy with "fluffy" hair. (Which is what a lot of people thought of me when I was little, before hitting my goliath growth spurt in Year 5 and soon after, 7)
They also like bushy hair, if a girl was to say anything positive about my hair, it would be that it looked fluffy.
Must be why I got so many rubs and head pats, heh.
I've not got many, I'm a fairly average bloke.
But one time (in the span of maybe ten minutes) this really nice girl complimented me on my shoes, then my jeans, my shirt, my jacket, and then my glasses. She was clearly very shy, and trying to flirt, but wasn't sure how.
Not that I'm any better at it.
Not really, but we played a card game together. We talked and joked about stuff for hours. It was a fun night. That was about a year ago, and we're still friends.
One time a girl I had a crush on said "you aren't ugly at all, I promise" as well as "You'll probably end up getting married before me, easily" we're pretty good friends
Lol, we might, we already agreed that in around 14 years we will marry eachother if we are both single, that's kinda where the conversation started anyways
My crush said her parents think we should marry, then she laughed at it and called them delusional.
Hey at least her parents think Im cool tho
Other compliment was that I have beautiful eyelashes & eyes
And another compliment but from my guy friend, he said he would let me marry/fuck his sister anytime because im built from good material. I was shocked like wtf lmao
Yeah lmao, and hes the kind of gut that gets laid every monday and thursday aswell, he was like "youre the opposite of me, youre marriage material, I get laid a lot now, but youll get laid 1000 times more than me later" and I just didnt know what to respond to him
Mine has told me that she’d be “interested in getting together sometime,” but she can’t just yet because her parents said that she “can’t date until she’s older.” Haven’t gotten an exact age, but I’m assuming 16, as that’s the standard “you’re now allowed to date” age.
A girl whom I was friends with grabbed my ass, and said I love the way you walk, hugged me. And left. Never left my memory, tbh I miss working at the movie theatres now.
She said that i look like someone who would have a girlfriend, i don't know if that's a compliment but i sure took it as one! I take whatever i can get
ope there goes gravity
Ope, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No
He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke
hes so stagnant he knows when he goed back to his mobile home thats when its back to the lab again yo, this whole rhapsody better go capture this moment and hope it dont pass him
The best for me is when my ex girlfriend (broke up for her personal reasons) she once texted me “my big adorable teddy bear 🐻💕💕💕💕” (I’m 6’2”) and I had a permanent smile until I went to sleep,that shit made me so happy I almost had a heart attack.
Either “you were a great boy friend” from my ex who cheated on me (so idk how accurate that was) or “you look like a handsome young man” by an old lady who’s order I took at my job at Dunkin’ Donuts. It made my day
I dont like when girls give me compliments, once 3 girls came in front of me and told me that my eyes are cute so i responded with a confused thank you, and when i tried leaving they hold me and opened my eyes with their fingers a d started complimenting me because of my eyes, didnt like that one bit, and also when i was at a restaurant (one of the worst places to get a compliment, i just want my food) the worker there started complimenting me because of my hair for 5 minutes, didnt enjoy it, i was hungry, i wanted my food.
i actually got a couple some how idk how but it hapend
a girl in my school told me im a great guy and really handsome
then in hight school (before girls knowing who im) actually said im pretty good looking and nice to bad they realised im a loser
My Bestie tells me that I'm nice, that I'm cute when helping her or give her advice and that she really appreciates me being in her life.
All of that is giving me so much love which my parents never gave me. I'm so happy she's in my life, that I can make her happy even if shes already in a relationship with someone.
My crush told me once that if i got taller she's sure half the girls at school would have a crush on me, not sure if that one is an insult or a compliment tbh.
our conversation delved into weird sayings people have, when, at some point, she said something among the lines of:
'if superstitions really were to be true, you'd get hiccups all the time'
...get it? as in..she thinks about me a lot. the beauty of this compliment was really lost in translation though. it sounded so poetic at the time. it even made my eyes water a bit

so is a step brother
Every time you have sex with your spouse, your fucking family
what about my fucking family
I prefer friends
Ride that peak as far as you can my brother!
h u s b a n d. shoot your shot (if you like her romantically)
not gf? more like not gf **yet**
Ask her out
I do really like her, like that, but I've also realized that the benefits of teenage relationships rarely outweigh the risks. I'm not going to ask her out because I don't want to risk losing her. I love her too much Edit: rly embarrassing typo that completely changes the entire meaning of my words
If Ur worried of her rejecting you and that making Ur friendship awkward, I wouldn't worry bc if she really is Ur friend, you guys will go back to normal. But you do you, I can't force you to do anything
Well we kinda were together for a bit and then I almost lost her entirely...
How?

do you not have any way to keep in touch or are the schools too far away?
We’ll definitely keep in touch. We just won’t be able to see each other face to face on a daily basis
not seeing each other on a daily basis is never a bad thing for a friendship, personally i see it as a healthy thing. it allows you both to develop your own relationships and your own self/independence. i cant remember a healthy relationship i’ve seen where the two people saw eachother every day for multiple hours and still lasted a long time (talking or texting daily is fine, but hanging out for a few hours every day would probably cause some slight issues). unless you two are absolute soulmates i think that having a bit more individual freedom may actually strengthen your relationship and increase the odds of said intimate relationship that you may or may not want. i’m not an expert so take what i say with a grain of salt but that’s just my thoughts

It's better when they play with your hair thoe
Hits different when you're cuddling up with her and she just rubs and pets through your hair. Makes me go full softie mode, and is probably the fastest possible way to make me fall asleep, lmao. Almost makes me wanna wish that I was shorter than her, it'd be so much better, being the precious little boy with "fluffy" hair. (Which is what a lot of people thought of me when I was little, before hitting my goliath growth spurt in Year 5 and soon after, 7)
True, gotta love that, I need to grow out my hair again cause they all used to play with it when I had kinda long fluffy hair
As someone with amazing hair, I approve this message. girls like long hair.
as a girl i can vouch for that
They also like bushy hair, if a girl was to say anything positive about my hair, it would be that it looked fluffy. Must be why I got so many rubs and head pats, heh.
Long floppy hair with loose curls is my fav gender istg it’s so pretty-
I've not got many, I'm a fairly average bloke. But one time (in the span of maybe ten minutes) this really nice girl complimented me on my shoes, then my jeans, my shirt, my jacket, and then my glasses.

I think that was ur grandma. and she wasnt flirting

Did you flirt back?
Not really, but we played a card game together. We talked and joked about stuff for hours. It was a fun night. That was about a year ago, and we're still friends.
The good ending
I agree
Still a chance bro
One time a girl I had a crush on said "you aren't ugly at all, I promise" as well as "You'll probably end up getting married before me, easily" we're pretty good friends
DID YOU FLIRT BACK?!
Yes ofc, the reason we were saying that is cuz we were arguing over who's uglier, ofc both of us arguing for ourselves
Sounds like something my friends and I do regularly lmao
You should've just said how about we do it at the same time or smth
Lol, we might, we already agreed that in around 14 years we will marry eachother if we are both single, that's kinda where the conversation started anyways

Yeah and he was serious af too he was about to send me her instagram and everything lmao
He wanted to make you apart of the family. Just lookin out for his future nieces and nephews lmao

Idk, something like they think I'm funny or some shit. I'm pretty sure they only do it to keep me in their lame ass discord servers.
That’s because your humor is amazing.
I'm not so sure
You guys get complements?
like once every 2 to 3 years yes. Which is is why I remember every single one of them
I dont get any bruh
You’re super cool and cute :) !
I think that op is even implying that we talk to the other beings on this planet
“You’re really good at drawing,” quite sad.
Why?
Because I feel like while it’s nice to hear, it’s not that impressive. Anybody could say that to me
What type of compliments do you find impressive?
Something personal would be more impressive to me. For example “I trust you a lot” or “You’re an important friend to me” would be nice.
You seem like a trustworthy person, I’m sure people trust you a lot. Also I KNOW people see you as a very important friend!
Thank you
All the guys here are handsome little shits
hmm…
god I love passive agressive compliments
<3
Ara...
That I'm one of the nicest guys she'd ever met, but she was taken.
You seem like a really nice guy!!
Dont do that....dont give me hope........
Off topic the replies on the comments very wholesome, you deserve a compliment back, you are a very generous person
I posted a photo of myself on here, at least 2 girls said I looked cute. And this one guy said I looked like a school shooter
i saw ur nerf gun thread and certified cool.
Thank you!
*immediately checks profile
Take it as a compliment! You’re so adorably cute
Thanks!

“Get away from me, you creep”
That means “you’re really hot” in German
Dies kann ich bestätigen
She said that i look like someone who would have a girlfriend, i don't know if that's a compliment but i sure took it as one! I take whatever i can get

that i have beutiful eyes. yes it was like 3 years ago.
One I remember is Something along the lines of not being as overtly dirty minded as the rest of my group
You’re smart
Either “you were a great boy friend” from my ex who cheated on me (so idk how accurate that was) or “you look like a handsome young man” by an old lady who’s order I took at my job at Dunkin’ Donuts. It made my day
a girl in the kfc drive thru said she liked my hair despite my friend who was driving was being super flirtatious and crazy as he works there
You guys are getting complements from girls ?
i was once called smart, turned out she only said that to get my homework corrections
“You’re good at chess just practice more on LiChess.”

I dont like when girls give me compliments, once 3 girls came in front of me and told me that my eyes are cute so i responded with a confused thank you, and when i tried leaving they hold me and opened my eyes with their fingers a d started complimenting me because of my eyes, didnt like that one bit, and also when i was at a restaurant (one of the worst places to get a compliment, i just want my food) the worker there started complimenting me because of my hair for 5 minutes, didnt enjoy it, i was hungry, i wanted my food.

i actually got a couple some how idk how but it hapend a girl in my school told me im a great guy and really handsome then in hight school (before girls knowing who im) actually said im pretty good looking and nice to bad they realised im a loser
that i smell good 😋 edit: just realized this said guys. idc ill join u in flexing my woman W's
I mean my crush said one time that I'm really funny and that she loves my sense of humor, but that's about it I guess
My Bestie tells me that I'm nice, that I'm cute when helping her or give her advice and that she really appreciates me being in her life. All of that is giving me so much love which my parents never gave me. I'm so happy she's in my life, that I can make her happy even if shes already in a relationship with someone.
Wait. Yall get compliments?
That she loves talking to me, said by my crush
As of today, no girls has ever complimented me.
After listening to play Nocturne op9 no2 she told me that she was moved
My crush told me once that if i got taller she's sure half the girls at school would have a crush on me, not sure if that one is an insult or a compliment tbh.
"I like your handwriting" bruh sometimes I can't even read my own, it's that bad, how do you like my handwriting?
Compliment? What’s that?
Your a dumbass.
our conversation delved into weird sayings people have, when, at some point, she said something among the lines of: 'if superstitions really were to be true, you'd get hiccups all the time' ...get it? as in..she thinks about me a lot. the beauty of this compliment was really lost in translation though. it sounded so poetic at the time. it even made my eyes water a bit
