You're actually one of the examples I told my boss about, the other is Warnser. The difference with you is that we "talk" almost every day. It doesn't mean that there's anything more. And thank you for your friendship, especially last night. It was tough to hear in ways but you're right, I needed to hear it.juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361843863209384103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14705332.post-76736308587274900692009-02-12T12:54:00.000-07:002009-02-12T12:54:00.000-07:00Yes, I think guys and girls can be friends. Your ...Yes, I think guys and girls can be friends. Your boss (want to say something else, but I'm trying not to anymore) has no idea what's going on inside my head, and you're my best friend.<BR/><BR/>I'm grateful for that and don't think of you any other way.<BR/><BR/>Anymore. Not after the last two times of trying to be more.<BR/><BR/>So, he's wrong, you're right.

I'm trying to be clear; however...<BR/><BR/>...I think you may be right, too, Missy. I AM kind of flirtatious, even when I don't realize it. Actually, usually I think I'm simply being cheerful and friendly. Short of asking him how he feels (which isn't going to happen any time soon), I'm not going to really know how he feels. Until he tells me different, I'm going to assume he thinks we're just friends, too. How's that for possibly being an ostrich with my head in the sand? :)juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361843863209384103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14705332.post-81019051098732045862009-02-11T16:13:00.000-07:002009-02-11T16:13:00.000-07:00I think it's different with every case, like Teare...I think it's different with every case, like Tearese said. I think a lot of it has to do with whether the guy has other interests in his life that can hold a candle to you. If he doesn't then you're not "just friends" because there is nothing "just" about it for him, even if you are "just friends." Good luck. I HATE to admit this, but you're so outgoing and flirtatious, I can easily agree with your boss. (NEVER tell him that, OK?) You might not be meaning to, but it's going to get harder and harder for Anthony to stop having feelings for you.Mellissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14798024954503368060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14705332.post-22019167416902397292009-02-11T15:52:00.000-07:002009-02-11T15:52:00.000-07:00I totally think you can be friends.

But, I also think that some people can't be friends with the opposite gender. Really, it's an individual thing.<BR/><BR/>Glad you figured it out. All you can really do is be clear.Cardinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13260768171568324499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14705332.post-57730399380535790672009-02-11T10:11:00.000-07:002009-02-11T10:11:00.000-07:00Thanks for your input everyone! This morning, whil...Thanks for your input everyone! <BR/><BR/>This morning, while riding my bike, I thought about this some more and realized that I'm thinking about it too much. It comes down to this: if I want to be friends with a guy, I'm going to be friends with him. If I have no intentions of being more than friends, I'll do my best to make that clear to him. Then it's up to him if he still wants to be friends.<BR/><BR/>I feel better already. :)<BR/><BR/>Now, I'm going to stop worrying about it...for now at least. :)juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13361843863209384103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14705332.post-69362270994377417232009-02-10T20:40:00.000-07:002009-02-10T20:40:00.000-07:00Wow... good question.

What I'd like to know is if I can just be friends without always wondering if I still like the guy more than that. It's the wondering part that drives me nuts and that I'd like to get rid of. <BR/><BR/>Another thing... when it's a different girl in a friendship like that - such as yourself, I agree with your boss. Anthony is interested in you more than friends. When it's me in such a friendship like that I don't agree. I usually tend to think that guys aren't interested in me.

But I think that is only if you are single, if you are married and have guy or girl friends, I don't think that is okay. Just my personal opinion though.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07295543406465609676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14705332.post-81244909656656889652009-02-10T19:49:00.000-07:002009-02-10T19:49:00.000-07:00I've heard that a lot too.

Most of the people in the high school art guild were guys, and I wasn't interested in them...I always wonder if they thought different of me?<BR/>I've heard that girls often think they're friends and guys think it might develope more, but I think it works the other way too.<BR/>Plus,before he met me, Joseph was friends with tons of girls in his ward: he saw them as friends,but everyone in his ward thought he was a player.<BR/>So I guess..each case is different?<BR/>I don't know. I guess he did really "like" some of those girls too, and they didn't know it.
