I slept with my best friend last night

and now I have no idea what to do Blush

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 Blush

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

Congrats OP!

It's lovely to hear some happy news. Hope everything works out for you FlowersWineSmile

Ginkypig · 26/10/2016 15:54

See you've done it now!

We are all excpecting regular updates on how this relationship progresses and half the posters have done a cilla aka blind dates and bought a hat Grin

I'm another one that got together with a mate. I could try and dig up the thread as I posted about it one here.

God I love him more than anything. Best. Decision. Ever.

Just went through all the emotions in about 15 mins reading this thread.

Flowers OP. I hope you'll be very happy together. My best fiend I met in college, and have been with for 8years now. Complicated and took us long enough to get together! but we've been engaged 3 years with a DD now.

SuperFlyHigh · 26/10/2016 16:11

We are a soppy bunch.
Lovely thread Flowers

n1CKed · 26/10/2016 17:11

I think you worry too much.

When we are open and honest about our feelings it leaves us feeling vulnerable and exposed. That is why you suggest pretending it didn't mean anything... even though it does?

You say he is your "best friend" - well if that isn't a great foundation for a full-on relationship I don't know what is. Feel the fear and do it anyway!

Why is it up to him? What do you want? Take control of your own life.

MarthasHarbour · 26/10/2016 17:14

This happened to me. 12 years ago this month. I am now making tea for our 2 DS' and sorting out our takeaway tonight. 10 years of marriage and we are still as much in love and still best friends Smile

Nice one OP FlowersWine

Just bloody love this!! Amazing thread. Well done OP 😍

Anzuham · 26/10/2016 17:29

May I suggest not to contact him because if he wants something to happen, HE is going to contact you because he's a man after all. Men are hunters. Women like to think and talk but men are very different from us as we all know! I know it's really difficult to ignore this but trust me, if he feels something about it, he will definitely chase you! On the other hand, if he doesn't contact you, then he's not even your friend anymore I'm afraid...and at least you'll know where to stand! Good luck!

NameChange30 · 26/10/2016 17:35

I know it's a long thread, people, but at least read the OP's posts!

Catsize · 26/10/2016 17:36

Grin Anzuham. May I boldly suggest at least reading the OP's posts?

LittleTripToHeaven · 26/10/2016 17:36

Haha, not read the full thread, Anzuham Wink

shockthemonkey · 26/10/2016 17:36

Anz, you have missed quite a bit!

Nice one OP, I recently celebrated 20 yrs of marriage with my best friend...

RosieMapleLeaf · 26/10/2016 17:37
