I have known my best friend for almost 10 years now. However, we are both not very emotional people, for example we never hug when we meet while it's very common here that good friends hug or even kiss each other when they meet, girls often walk hand in hand. We just never do that. But lately there were such contacts and other similar things. I am confused now; could it be that she wis looking for something more because it's weird since both of us are very straight. Or maybe she is just looking for ways to strenghten our friendship..?
it could be anything really.... it's tough to give you an answer or even advice based on that cause i dont know enough.
maybe you should keep an open mind until a few weeks ago i thought i was completely gay the point is, very few people are completely homo OR hetero
why not ask your friend about it? IF she's such a good friend, then you should be able to bring up the topic. But make sure to let her know it's okay either way. You don't want to alienate her.
eh...Bri, I would ususally be quick to agree with you, but it seems like an extremely difficult thing to bring up even with a very close friend. Because if you're wrong, and she's straight as an arrow, it adds a lot of tension, regardless of open-mindedness. It makes things weird. I can't come up with a good alternative, though. My best advice would be to see how things play out. Do you like her? That would change things significantly.
Thanks for your advices However, I don't think talking to her about that is such a good idea. It can really mess up everything... she is a good firend but I don't like her in that way. Well, I have to admit I am little bit curious.
Ya know, I looked back on what I said and you're right. I think I was trying to refer to talking about her sudden change in personal comfort levels and the increased display of affection, not necessarily questioning one's sexuality. But I was on lunch break and responded before having a chance to think it through. It's true that it could potentially make things uncomfortable. Terra-sorry about that. Eliza- thank you for bringing me back to reality. I guess if you don't have any issues with the changes and affections, approaching her might turn a good thing to bad. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, right?
Yeah, I had a few friends become increasingly touchy-feely a while after I came out to them...I know they're straight and I'm not particularly interested in any of them that way, but whatever, it's kind of nice. I'm sure they just find it interesting, maybe even comforting that I "value" them to that extent...I dunno. Never anything violating. Plus...girls are weird like that, always changing. Guys aren't.
