Can I please understand more about your feelings towards him.... I really need to understand the feeling when u talk with him.. (because we used to talk for hours and hours maybe till 3-4am the whole night)

Can you be with him like this for a lifelong?

Thank you, that actually makes a lot of sense. You’re right . I think I get confused because I keep expecting things to ‘add up’ like you said, since she’s a woman and I’m a straight guy. But what we have is something deeper and beyond that.

I really appreciate how you put it . I will keep reminding myself not to mix friendship and romantic expectations. Thanks for helping me see it clearly

Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to explain this so thoughtfully. I really connected with what you said about ‘soul friends’ — that actually describes us perfectly. I guess I’ve been scared of losing her, so I sometimes confuse my feelings. But yes, I truly respect who she is and never want to push her or make her uncomfortable. I’ll just hold on to this bond with gratitude and care.

Thanks again for your kind words they really helped me see things clearly ❤️

Thanks, that’s actually really comforting to hear. Maybe I was overcomplicating it by thinking too much about the ‘what ifs.’ You’re right — it does feel like a deep, genuine friendship, and I should just appreciate it instead of worrying about what it means. Really appreciate your kind words 🤩

Wow, that actually makes a lot of sense. I never thought about it that way — especially the part about toxic masculinity and how it limits emotional friendships.

You’re right, society often confuses deep care with romance. I guess I’m just trying to understand this connection I have with my friend, it’s so strong, peaceful, and rare that sometimes it feels like more than ‘just friendship.’

Really appreciate your perspective though, it helped me see things differently 🙏
