At least
someone's being honest here. Listen to ketamine and do some serious introspection.
There is never a true "I don't want to lose our friendship;" rather, it boils down to "I don't want to lose the emotional bond we have, since it's the closest thing to a relationship that I have with this person and I'll settle for that." That is pathetic, and I can only say it because I did that for 2.5 years, trying to be the "nice girl." Didn't work, wasted my time and energy on someone who was never really into me the way was I into him. I should have looked for someone who could truly reciprocate... I encourage you to do the same.
