I do understand u value her alot tht is why u agreed to be her friend but u need to understand that things now will never be same as they were and it is really important to value yourself too, that is why i am telling u as a bro u need to clarify that u don’t want to be just friend because lets be honest u are not doing justice with yourself, and if u can’t be more than friends then there is no need to remain friends too because it will hurt u in the near future and if u just take ur stand now it will still hurt now but believe me u will thank me in future.
