"In love with straight best friend" ever work out?
-
Anyone?
-
Not in my only experience, no.
It seemed all "cool" when I opened up to him about my feelings, but we don't even speak anymore now. I guess the plus side is I'm over him…
-
My male best friend is a bit of an exhibitionist and sends nudes occasionally.
We've talked about having sex before… Might never happen, but it's definitely a discussion we've had before.
-
Well- there's a whole lot of gay romance fiction that speaks of these things working out. But real life is a different story. I guess it all comes down to just how "straight" the best friend is. We know there's a spectrum and he may even fall into the more Bi side of things in which case you have a fighting chance.
I haven't seen it work out- but I'd really like to think it's possible.
This reminds me of an adorable article I read about a guy who realized that his best friend may be his boyfriend. It makes you wish it worked out for them.

I can only speak of my experience with "so called" straight friends….wether they are just friends or were your best friend. Straight friends do not wish to know that you are "in love" with them.....some already assume you are because you have either just "Come OUT" to them, or they knew you were Gay and they try to distance themselves rom you. So my answer would be "NO"...it has NEVER worked out. They suddenly avoid you as if you lent them Money. lol

your feelings will die with time so better not lose him as a friend! I had a BIG crush on my gym trainer before we became friends and I made him my best friend I was with him ALL THE TIME we were very close but I never tried anything with him I was just happy to be with him and after three years my feelings were totally gone now it's been almost ten years and guess what? we're still best friends and he's still hot as fuck but he's just like a brother to me
-
It never works out from my personal experiences!
-
How can it work out if he is truly straight? Unless you get him drunk then you can find out just how straight he is, one of my friends who was supposedly straight kept spooning with me and touching me when he was drunk, 3 years later he comes out.

It didn't work for me at all, if the guy is actually straight then get ready for a broken heart, but don't be desperate, love happens all the time, you have to enjoy the ride just like when you watch a movie, if it's a happy scene you'll be smiling, if it's a sad scene you will cry.

I work with a straight married guy. We see each other often (work together) and text/phone daily. He knows I'm gay. We talk about sex a huge majority of the time, both straight and gay sex. We've shared tips about anal sex toys (he enjoys it). We've never directly talked about playing with each other but it's gotten pretty darn close. His wife works at the same place we do and I'd consider her a friend. It's a very difficult place to be in considering I've allowed myself to develop strong sexual and emotional feelings for this man. I go stints where I bring myself to orgams 3 or 4 times daily thinking about the most simple interactions with him. There are moments when I feel I know without a doubt he wants me and there are moments when I feel he just sees me as another "bro" to shoot the shit with and nothing more. At this point I feel there's no hope for him to reciprocate and the only rational thing to do is find a new job and put this mess behind me for my own sanity.

It's unrealistic and in most scenarios hurts everyone involved.
-
No.
-
not a good idea.
-
dont do it. the awkwardness is enough for him to think its better not to be with you alone. if he gets offended, say goodbye to your friendship.
-
Nah. It will most likely go to shit. Also, not a good fuck tbh lmao

-jpOrgams 3 or 4 times daily only through.. thinking?
He must be the super guy!!

Don't really think that works out. recently told my straight best friend about my gayness and he was all cool with it. But sometimes when i look around and see other guys and swoon he gives a blank expression. i don't even feel that there's a remote possibility that if the guy is truly straight he would be interested. There are some bisexuals though who claim to be straight but then again that's a different story.

Absolutely NO.
I keep on one-side love for 4 years with my closest friend in University-hood. We are in the study-group for 4 years.
I don't want to risk my relationship with him and then my friend (woman) confessed to him.
Well, It's beneath my sight and he doesn't interest with other woman or man so I think If I keep my eyes on him for a day I have my courage to confess maybe when we're graduating.It's hurt so much and I tried to avoid him and being mean to him since I don't want to see my friends as a couple.
-
sadly, no

I confessed to my straight guy after nine years of friendship, six years of loving him, and it worked out. Not in the way I'd like, of course, he's straight, but we're still friends more than a year later. Not much has changed in our relationship except that I'm not keeping a secret anymore. I know it probably wouldn't work out for everyone, it could create a lot of awkwardness, and I won't pretend there hasn't been any between us, but we've always been emotionally close.
