Friends to lovers (can we be just friends?)

Ajax (he/xe)

I told you I love you

One night, not special at all

It was around midnight

I texted asking if you wanted to call

I wanted to hear your voice

I built up the courage 

To show you my feelings

You said you felt the same

We do our best to figure out how this’ll work

Because of the distance

We try our best

The first few months are awesome

We seem to be perfect

But sooner or later

We drift apart

Both too busy to talk

It’s hard

I think I’ve lost feelings

But I don’t know how to break up with you

Because I do love you

But as just a friend.

And I don’t know what to do

  • Caring dove

    Difficult , because I guess it will upset this person . But I guess it’s best to be honest with them

  • spilleronsheet

    Ask within
    What you want the most
    Then be sincere with yourself and the person in front
    It’s better to be sooner in reply
    Then linger it for another time
    A friendship is not bad
    But delaying is worst

  • L. B. Mek

    Be!
    the Best, friend you can be
    to that person,
    which means, allowing them access to your comradery and sympathy
    even, if it's you that caused the initial difficulty...
    that's all anyone can expect from you, in such complex situations..
    and if they want distance, then simply
    let them be

  • Candibee

    If the other person is willing to be with you even as a friend they're a keeper as a friend. But make sure you feel right in that friendship. But don't keep the romantic relationship up, It'll make both of you feel more pain when it ends on a bad note. It's good to be true to yourself.
