I slept with my best friend last night

and now I have no idea what to do

We haven't spoke to each other since last night as we've both been working today but I'm not sure if I should contact him first or should I wait for him to contact me?

I don't know what he thinks about it and whether he thinks it meant something or it was just a casual one night stand. I'm not even sure I know tbh

Should I mention this to him or just forget it ever happened and continue on as normal?

Hooray!

I LOVE a happy ending! Good Job OP.

Rockingaround · 26/10/2016 09:17

Whoever suggested the engaged text - step forward. Gorgeous thread, so lovely, just in time for Xmas too! 😍

ShowMeTheElf · 26/10/2016 09:11

Thanks OP. Your thread has made me

StillaChocoholic · 26/10/2016 08:58

Best thread I've read in a while! Hope you had a good night (again)

NameChange30 · 26/10/2016 08:58

I would never joke about marriage with someone I'd just slept with for the first time - it's way too cringey and open to misinterpretation.

Anyway, no harm done in this case

Chickoletta · 26/10/2016 08:56

Yay! Wonderful to check back in this morning to a happy ending. Have you phoned in sick today OP?!

PigletWasPoohsFriend · 26/10/2016 08:49

Another one here who has ended up married to the person that was their best friend.

for you OP.

Bertieboo1 · 26/10/2016 08:44

Aw this is fab, so nice to read such a happy thread on a grey morning

IamnotaStepfordHousewife · 26/10/2016 08:41

Just found this thread. So happy for you

HermioneWeasley · 26/10/2016 08:36

Awww, how lovely. I love the comedy text getting you together.

Another one here who made a move on best friend and ended up getting married.

"Yet"

KittyAlPick · 26/10/2016 08:31

Lovely thread!

NerrSnerr · 26/10/2016 08:29

This thread has really made me smile. How lovely. I bet you need a shit load of coffee today OP.

Justjoseph · 26/10/2016 08:27

Are we engaged? was a genius text!

It gave him a funny get out or an easy opening.

Well done OP!

This is a lovely thread, enjoy, possiblynotAVirgin. Love hearing about everyone else's best friend experiences, too! Congratulations, everyone!
I was a bit thrown by the "Does this mean we're engaged?" text, too. Googled it and wonder if it comes from this cartoon, which dates from 1965, apparently? ImperialBlether?

NameChange30 · 26/10/2016 08:10

YAY! 😍

I have to admit, I thought the "are we engaged now?!" text was a terrible idea, but since he's into you it really doesn't matter. So glad it's all worked out, hurray!

Hope you're not too tired today after last night's shagfest

DMCWelshCakes · 26/10/2016 08:10

My best friend is in the kitchen stacking the dishwasher. Together 17 years, married for 13, 2DC.

laurzj82 · 26/10/2016 07:45

Love this! Hope you (and your cat) had a good night

fixyourgardengate · 26/10/2016 07:34

What a lovely thread to read at the start of the day. Congratulations!

MrsCampbellBlack · 26/10/2016 07:31

Oh I love this!

And I really loved Imperial's text.

Wooterus · 26/10/2016 07:26

Aaaaaaah 😍 So happy for you both!

Elfontheedge · 26/10/2016 07:14

This has really made me smile. Very happy for you.

passingthrough1 · 26/10/2016 07:10

Ohhh this was lovely to read. Another one here who made the same "mistake". Imagine if I hadn't, I wouldn't have my DS and wouldn't wake up to my favourite person every day.

MinniesAndMickeysNeedCounting · 26/10/2016 07:05

Just adding to the chorus of I slept with my best friend, 15 years later, we've been married 13 and have 2 children.

I think a lot of us would say it's a great foundation for a relationship.

for you
