I bumped into an old friend about 1.5 years ago and we rekindled our friendship. I was in a relationship at the time and only looked at him as a friend and I think him me. A few days ago we went to a huge party together with a few other friends and got rather drunk. I ended up sleeping with him. He is lovely but I think we would be much better as friends. He has now told me he has feelings for m but I just don't feel the same. How do I tell him without hurting his feeling or our friendship and can we still be friends after this?
im not good with this kind of thing.
but maybe its best to be honest.
or you could tell him you would like to be friends with *extras *
and your not looking for a relationship with anyone.
i hope ive helped.
kinda :S
good luck xxx
its always difficult handling the after effects of a drunken mistake LOL. When he next bring up his feelings about it all just tell him that you dont want to ruin your friendship by makin it awkward or saying that you dont have the time etc for a reltionship...that way, your making it clear that he hasnt dun anything wrong without actually saying the killer.. its not you its me lol... hope it all works out for ya!!
why would you have sex with somebody if you arent planning on having a relationship? The risk of children, aid, hurt feelings and all kind of stds that could happen? Thats too much to risk.
just tell him, that you think he is a good guy, you really enjoyed the night 'even if you didn't' and just say that you just want to be friends as it's the best for your friendship, as that's what is most important.
tel him this that u enjoyed the time you spend together the other night, but sex always complicate things up and even is he has feelings for you , u don't want to lose his friendship. so you want him to be there for u as a friend. and may be later on something more...
this will keep it open plus you will have a friend..
