Hmmm sounds like exactly what has happened to me just a few days ago...
I was going out w/ someone whom I consider to be really special, we went out a couple of years before but nothing more as friends...
Then one day she changed and she actually opened a door for me. A door which signifies that we might be actually a couple... But it never eventuated as she just never felt anything for me...
She said that she tried and I do believe that she did... (Although I sometimes think that she didn't try hard enough). But she just didn't have any feelings for me rather than friends...
I am just thankful that I had the chance of actually being one w/ someone I loved... Everyone in church considered us to be the best couple but what can one person do but just ride along w/ it...
She ended the relationship after one month of going out. But I have no regrets.. She ended the relationship, I didn't... I have the memories... and I haven't changed towards her.. I am still going to be the same Bernz as I was even before I went out w/ her...
Don't fret.. the only thing I can say is that stay friendly w/ him... (mine isn't doing this and it has caused me [past tense] grief) but know your boundaries... make sure he knows that you are in it for the friendship and nothing else.. if you do change your mind in the future... consult first w/ the older people around you and they might be able to give you good advice...
God Bless as well!!!
