Well, we're all adults. I would hope that if it came up, we'd be able to have an honest conversation about it. Actually, that has happened in the past a couple of times, and in one instance, one of us involved couldn't handle it, and ended the friendship; in the other, everything worked out just fine and the friendship is going strong.

Quote:Is it painful though. Being attracted to someone sexually yet not being able to express it because of whatever, doesnt need to be the exact same scenario as with you?

Crushes aren't the same as love. I imagine if one person in a friendship is in love with the other, that could be painful, but a crush? There are billions of people on this planet. I'll find someone to focus on who doesn't cause me heartache Smile

Absolutely.

My best friend is not only female...she's a southern baptist.

I'm a guy and I have an abnormally high proportion of lesbian friends. I'm not sure why.

I'm a 29 year old female, and I seem to work and converse with attractive males at work everyday and not jump their bones.

Easily done.

Like I said, we don't talk about it much. Every so often she slips up and says she "prays" for me so I retaliate by offering to "think" for her.
