So i have this friend who i love more than i do my brother. I have no attraction to him he is just so meaningful to me. I dont think he feels the same way. I just want our friendship to grow closer but lately it feels like it is doing the opposite. Any advice on how i can fix this without coming of awkward?

I felt exactly the same about one of my friends until a few days ago when he said how much of a great friend I was, and that I am his best friend ever (he is mine to) so just give it time, or maybe you should tell him how much of a great friend he is.

Do you have any idea why you guys are growing apart?

I think it's real important to tell stuff like that and it usually gets neglected with guys.

You can do something together or tell him how you feel. I feel the same way about one of my friends.

I feel just the same way about one of my friends. I'm sure it wouldnt be a huge amount of hassle to just talk it through with him and make him see your side of the situation

Talk to him! I had the same kinda talk with my best friend last year, we were just laying in my bed late at night - and I just told him how much I really appreciated him and his friendship, and how much I loved him as a friend. It was a little awkward for a few minutes, but then we really talked, and I found out he felt the same way. We are better than ever now.

I went through the same thing. He did end up leaving me in the dust.

I have always talked to him about it... my other friends say that i am to attached to him. I definitely am not, at least not anymore. I just wish i could be there for him... I really just want to feel needed but i know that he can survive without me on his back every second

well maybe he's just an independent kind of guy. Doesn't mean he dislikes you or anything.

Just tell him how u feel, and explain that it is not sexual, he is just some 1 u actually trust. Other than that, I'm not much help. I only have my cousin. Best of luck

It's a common problem I face quite often. In my experience, you can't push too hard or you'll drive them away. Telling him how much you value him as a friend would be a good idea, though I'd recommend doing it on facebook/text/whatever rather than in person, to minimise any potential awkwardness.

Don't worry, just know that you guys need your space sometimes so sometimes it's best to just leave him alone for a bit when you think he needs his space :) He still likes you though!
