Hi, So I have this friend..Who I have been friends with for a few years now. When we first became friends I was in a relationship and a few years later married. This friend, through the entire time we have know each other knows my relationship but, likes me..Well, confessed his love for me. But, although I had some mutual feelings for him I pushed them aside because the person I married I love more than anything. So, this friend stopped talking to me after I told him I didn’t feel the same way and I only wanted to pursue a friendship with him. But, a few months later we reconnected and it started all over, we seemed to be doing fine as friends then he says he still likes me.. this happened a few more times..The leaving and reconnecting and him liking me still. But, this time he says he want’s to try. I do not but, I care for this person more than anything and I want him to be happy. What do I do to let him be happy, I’ve left so many times and so has this person, but, I want for this friendship more than any other in the world because we connect and mesh so well.. Do I need to remove myself compleley from his life? I don’t know what to do, I’ve tried to ask him not to hang onto me and to find someone who will hang on back.. But, I feel like I am holding him back. Do I need to leave so he can find his happiness?
