He called me sweet, am I friendzoned?

My closest guy friend has been staying round my house more frequently (mainly when we get drunk). We end up cuddling all night/the next day (didn't get out of bed till 5pm today). I got a vibe that he was into me, and I am to him.

I was lying in bed cuddling him today, stroking his arm and nestling my head in his neck like we've done before, and then he called me 'sweet'... He never has before. To me its kind of a weird word to use when someone is in that position with you. I read that means he's trying to friendzone me, or I dunno whether it's cos I had hiccups that was calling me sweet as in cute or something. I dunno.

What do you think?
Sweet doesn't necessarily mean friendzone lol

He probably likes you idk
No, you aren't friend zoned.

you're too sugary?
He might be gay.
Men don't friendzone women. Their brains are simple, women go it to one of two categories;

Would.
Would not.

I can only guess that you are on the "would" box but he has not made his feelings clear, which leaves it to you to make your feelings clear. There is always the possibility that he might be gay.

He's definitely not gay, he's tried making moves but it's difficult because we've been best friends for 4 years and work together, so I dunno if him calling me sweet was him trying to put an end to things before they go too far

Just put your head on his crotch and start biting. If you want things to happen, make them happen.

GIrls, unlike guys, can be sweet and not friendzoned. It is an adorable feminine trait. Go for a kiss next time you are cuddling.

I think he likes you. If he called you 'hot' or 'sexy' he could just be classed as shallow, or only into you for your body. He probably didn't really over think the connotations of this word any way... however it definitely doesn't mean your'e friendzoned..

I'm in two minds. When I first met him 4 years ago I was really into him, attracted to him loads but I had a boyfriend/he had a girlfriend at the time so nothing happened. Then we started working together and I kind of suppressed any feelings towards him other than being friends. Then he started gradually giving me an impression a few months ago that he was into me and it brought back all those old feelings, and I like him now as more than friends. But don't want to **** where I eat/ruin the friendship we have...

One of my friends had a one night stand with him ages ago and said he's amazing in bed so obviously that is in the back of my mind too.

He kept getting a hard on today when we were in bed and saying it was my fault, in a jokey way. Then he called me sweet, and got up. Before he left he said 'this is starting to be a problem now.' Hence, why I think he might be trying to suppress any feelings towards me and friendzone me

Just do it, I'm sure you both know that you already have feelings for each other.
