I wanted your guys opinion if you think women and men can be just platonic friends without any type of feelings getting involved. I have a situation where a female friend of mine might be building up feelings for me. I've known her for 4 years now but in the past year or year and a half we've gotten really close. She considers me as her best friend and we talk everyday. From The moment I first met her I always liked her. I tried dating her but because she loves our friendship she feels like if we did date that it would ruin the friendship. She also says she's not looking to date anybody because of work and college and she just has a lot going on that she doesn't have time to date. One thing I found a little confusing though is that she always tells me that she loves me (almost everyday), she tells me she loves talking to me and she feels like our friendship should never change even if regardless one of us end up dating someone else. Now the way I feel about our friendship is that it's not going to last. Either two things might happen, either we end up dating because we're so close or the friendship might end if one of us date someone else (well not exactly end but we're going to have to tone it down with talking everyday all the time). I actually brought that to her attention one day by asking her if she ever wondered where our friendship might end up going. The way I felt about it is that if she was to start dating again and ends up getting a boyfriend then I would basically have to start leaving the picture because of two reasons, 1. because you have a boyfriend and I'm doing it out of respect for the other guy and number 2 because you knew how I felt about you and your still going to date someone else so now I feel I got played a little bit. She then said thats exactly why I'm not dating anybody. She also feels like there should be a certain level of trust in relationships and guys should trust her even if she talks to me everyday or any other guy friend for that matter and when guys start acting like they don't trust her that it shows how insecure they are. Sometimes I feel like their's something there that she's not telling me like as if maybe she does want to date me but just not right now. Also one thing I forgot to mention is that she plans on moving soon and I have a room at my house that I was planning on renting out and she says she wants to move in and likes the idea if we were roommates. what are your guy's opinion on all of this? I'm looking forward to everyones advice.
