Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?No; I was suggesting that you seem quite pleased by the idea that he finds you hot?(Original post by Anonymous)
Was that supposed to be a double negative or not? I'm slightly confused by what you're asking considering the context. -
Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?Oh, well from my comment, I didn't mean to make it sound that way, but of course I'm flattered, because let's face it; who wouldn't be? :')(Original post by Josh93)

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?To be honest, I really don't think it works out unless the guy thinks the girl is ugly, or if he's gay, or he gets feelings for her and she just accepts that. Either way, in most normal situations I don't think the 'just friends' thing lasts for too long.(Original post by Callum828)
It is possible, if, to be blunt, the guy thinks the girl is ugly.
If he thinks she's hot, then you're gonna have a bad time. -

Guys don't pay attention to girls they aren't interested in.
The sooner girls realise this the better. -
Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?
OK - I've read through this whole thread and while it's clearly too late to give advice to the OP, there is something I want to say.
I'm a guy and my best friend is a girl. We've been friends since about Feb. To be honest we regularly flirt and give each lots of attention ahead of other people but neither of us are interested in the other. We've both made this clear to each and to everyone who says we should date. And to top it off - halfway through our friendship I developed feelings for a different girl.
My point is that just because there's a boy whose friends with you - it doesn't mean that they want to get in your pants. Some do yeah I won't lie but there are those of us are perfectly happy being friends. -

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?As long as neither of you have a bf/gf then I don't see anything wrong with it(Original post by Anonymous)
My best friend and I are, well, best friends. Neither of us feel anything more for the other, and we both like other people, however, we flirt quite a lot and tell each other we love each other (in a friend-type way). It's just that I'm a girl and he's a boy, and while I wouldn't even think about it with my friends who are girls, is this weird?

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?I actually spoke to him about it and he doesn't want to go out with me at the moment, so yeah(Original post by SunderX)
Well, what are you going to do about it?
The ball is in your court. He's already made his move.

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?
I did this with my male best friend. I convinced myself that there was nothing to it, even though we basically acted like a couple and anyone who met us (justifiably) thought we were, and said everything you're saying now to people who told me it was more than friendship. Eventually I realised that there's no point in pretending anymore, and now we've been together for over a year.
If it were really this platonic, you wouldn't be questioning it. Obviously I don't know you or your friend, but just think about it once without denying anything to yourself

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?Oh. Okay, now it's creepy how much you sound like me!(Original post by Anonymous)
You were totally right
I was talking to him about it yesterday and he said if he saw me more, he probably would've asked me out by now. I just feel so bad and now I don't know what to do! He's my best friend, and I don't want to lose that, yet I don't want to hurt him!
You may want to PM me

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?
Interesting thread.
Do you want something to be wrong with you flirting with your best friend?
Does it really matter?
Is there an answer you want me to give you OP?
I think secretly you want us to say something along the lines of- "Omg, he totally likes you!!!!"
. Which of course we wouldn't actually know..
Anyway, I don't know, if it is bad that you flirt with your best friend. I swear friends can flirt with their friends without it meaning anything. I think

Re: Is it bad that I flirt with my best friend?There's something about this line that just made me(Original post by EonBlueApocalypse)
He is obviously dying inside and wants you, when he says he loves you he really means it. When he says he likes other girls he's lying. He knows he's been friendzoned and being friends is the only way to maintain a relationship with you. Simple broscience really.
