HELPAm I confusing friendship feelings with something more??

Postby breathe_in on Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:55 pm

I am trying to work out if I am attracted to one of my friends.

I have never had an experience with a woman. This friend is my first bi friend. We have not known each other very long, but we have gotten to know a lot about each other very quickly. We both agree that we have a very strong connection.

She thinks that I am confusing my friendship feelings with her just because she is bi.

I see that this is a possiblity, but I having trouble figuring it all out.

As far as men are concerned, I am not one to ever just want to shag someone for the sake of it. I need to be very mentally attracted to them. I am very mentally attracted to her. So I do not really see what difference it makes that she is a woman.

She has asked me if I would have felt this way if she was straight...and I feel like the answer is that we will never know. I think a lot of my attraction to her at first was that she was so open. I want to hear from her all the time. I do not feel that my other friends are open to the degree that she is (in terms of many things, not just sexuality) and I certainly don't yearn to hear from them as I do her.

There are lots of elements to my attraction to her. But the 2 very significant ones for me are that we laugh a lot when we are together! Extremely so. Real belly laughter. And secondly, we relate on a very deep level in terms of life experience and sprituality.

As far as the sex part is concerned,I do want to have sex with her. But more so I just want to be intimate with her...like just laying naked holding each other.

How do I know if I am getting carried away with the feelings of just a very good friendship?? It seems like such a fine line to me.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Hi, You obviously have spoken to your friend before about your feelings and you sound as though you really want to go further with her. I would talk to her again and tell her that you have thought through your feelings and feel that they are genuine, then ask her if she would like to take your friendship a stage further along a more romantic path. Take it slow and see what develops. If it is meant to be it will happen. Good luck.
