I need advice about a male I've been friends with since childhood. Let's call this male Josh. He's 16, the same age as me.
Josh and I have a very good friendship. We are very open with each other. I can tell him anything and he feels the same way. He's my best male friend.
MATURE READERS ONLY
Lately our conversations have become more sexual. We will talk about having sex and things like that. At points, we'll talk about having sex with eack other. I thought he was just messing around because he's never really had a girlfriend. I didn't think he was serious about wanting to have sex with me.
Yesterday, I went over to his house. We were alone in his room. I don't want to give out the details, but we came close to having sex. His mom came in to check on us before we had the chance to do anything.
I don't know what to do.
First. He is my best friend, and I don't want to mess up our friendship.
I have had a male in the past force himself on me, so I have fears of being put in that type of situation again.
Honestly, I can't see myself dating Josh. He's more of a brother to me.
I really don't want some "friends with benefits" kind of relationship.
Last but not least, I want to wait untill I'm older to have sex (well to have sex again).
What do I do in this situation?? Any advice??
