So background first. My best friend and I have been friends for about 8 years. About 4 years ago he said that he was in love with me but I did not feel the same. I buggered off to England. We have stayed friends but I avoided a lot of physical contact just in case.
Cue two days ago when I arrived home for a visit and he came to the airport. I saw him basically threw myself at him. Hugs galore. I had butterflies a washing maching and jumping frogs in my stomach. All I wanted to do was kiss him.
Last night I told him how I felt. How it had all changed etc. Told him how I was stupid not to realise the best thing I could ever want was in front of me the whole time.
He was shocked but not upset. He did not say no but did not yes to anything happening. I am only home for two weeks and head back to London soon but am planning on beng back in Oz for good in a few months.
We ended up snogging away for a few hours though and he wants to go out for dinner on the weekend.
So the big question (well there are two really) is, has anyone ever had a relationship with their best friend and has it worked?
