When Your Best Buddy Looks Better As A Boyfriend
Turning Your Best Mate Into a Soul MateThere he goes again, talking about his latest date, and you've got a plastic smile pasted on your face. You're thinking about how you'd love to reach across and take his hand. What it would be like to kiss him. How much better you'd be for him than any other woman. But you hold back, afraid of losing the friendship if he really knew how you feel. It might change your relationship and make it awkward. So how can you transform a best friend into a boyfriend? The most important thing to keep in mind is: don't change around him. Be yourself. You're friends because of the person you are, and he might lose interest in you if you pretend to be someone different. That doesn't mean you can't crank up the amount of time you spend together. Contact him more in between the times you meet. Think of creative and memorable things to do, like going ice-skating or getting up at 5 am for a Starbucks sunrise. You can catch up more tactics to make him consider you for a relationship and finally accept your love by consulting ”The Woman Men Adore… And Never Want To Leave”. Make sure that your feelings for him are genuine. It's easy to toy with the idea of a perfect relationship with your best friend, but it isn't so easy to clean up the mess if you suddenly change your mind. It's a huge risk involved and the friendship might be more valuable minus the romance. On the other hand, if your feelings are strong, it's already changed the relationship from your side. Your frustration could come out and he'd be clueless why you're becoming so moody. Most boy-girl friendships are based on some sort of attraction and flirtation. Increasing the amount of flirting with your best friend will help get his attention. Women can be very subtle, many times too subtle for men to pick up on. Be more obvious, more touchy-feely, and see how he reacts. If it's positive, continue doing it. A lot of men are pretty skittish, so tone it down if he seems uncomfortable with it. When you're finally ready to tell him how you feel (if he still hasn't picked up on it) then be very clear about how you feel. There are many ways to tell him, from the simple “I like you” to “I've always wondered how you kiss.” This isn't the time to beat around the bush. You should hope for the best, but also be prepared if he says no. There aren't any guarantees that he feels the same way, and as a friend you need to respect him. Making your best friend your boyfriend is risky, but some of the strongest relationships are based on a strong friendship. It might be well worth the gamble.
