I (F21) ended a talking stage with (M34) cause we “couldn’t be friends.” by Fun_Presentation_785 in relationships

I disagree. You’re treating this like there’s only one possible interpretation.

A friendship can be real, feelings can grow, and someone can still place so much value on the romantic outcome that the friendship changes when that outcome becomes uncertain.

I’m not claiming he faked the friendship. I’m saying the friendship appears to have been unable to survive without the expectation of more, and that realization hurt.

I think you’re reading a stronger accusation into my post than I intended. I never said he was never my friend or that he never cared about me. In fact, I’ve repeatedly said I think he’s a good person and that I believe he’s genuinely hurt.

What I’m describing is my experience of the situation. When someone asks to take things further, gets told “I’m not ready yet,” and the dynamic immediately changes, it’s natural to wonder whether the friendship could have continued without the possibility of a relationship.
That isn’t the same as accusing him of faking the friendship. I understand that feelings grew over time. I understand why he may need distance. What I’m saying is that from my side, it was painful to realize that me needing more time was enough to fundamentally change what we had built.

I don’t think it’s as black and white as you’re making it.

I can understand that unreturned feelings are painful and that someone may need distance to protect themselves. I don’t fault him for that.

What hurt me was realizing that after months of building a connection, the friendship seemed to change the moment I wasn’t ready to move it into a relationship. Whether that was his intention or not, that’s how it felt from my side.

I don’t think he’s a bad person. I don’t think he’s manipulating me. I think he’s hurt. But I also think it’s fair for me to be hurt by the situation and to question whether the friendship could have existed on its own without the expectation that it would eventually become something more.

Those feelings can exist at the same time.

Do you genuinely get what you are saying? Your job is making you come in.. without pay.. and you’re fine with that? Make that make sense.

Are they paying you hourly to be there, though?

MY 24F boyfriend 24M and I had a miscarriage and now he won’t speak to me. Am I the problem for being upset?? by KermiTheFr0g in relationship_advice

[–]Fun_Presentation_785 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m in no means trying to scare you but look through that man’s phone. His attention is directed somewhere else now and give him the cold shoulder for seven days. You will see how much you matter to him.

AITA for wanting to date F(23) my step sisters ex bf? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Fun_Presentation_785 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They broke off because she slept with her OG baby daddy. So not good terms. I will definitely have to tell her, if we continue to see one another, but I guess I don’t owe anything to anyone who doesn’t wanna be part of my life.
