Best Friends

[Swimmerboy16]

So I have this really good friend nd we spend a lot of time together. We’re both straight as far as I know but we give each other massages and back scratches and cuddle sometimes. Last night his dad came in and we were cuddling and then later asked him if we were more than friends and now I just feel weird bout the whole situation. Like I don’t want his parents to think we are more than friends and I feel like it’s going to be awkward seeing them now

It's alright. Just tell his dad that nothing is going on. Also there's nothing wrong with doing those things with guy friends!

I'm confused. You asked a straight friend of yours that is the same sex if you were more than friends in front of their parents?

Tell us the whole story. Are you and your friend both the same sex? What did your friend answer when his/her dad asked if you were more than friends? Where you present during this conversation? If not, ho do you know about it? Do you want to be more than just friends? It's ok. Just answer these questions honestly. No one is here to judge. We are here to support each other on this site.

If you only give us part of the story then we can't give good advice.

I understand what's going on. It's okay to have a really close friend like that - good for you guys! If you do feel like you're more than friends, that's okay too. (I understand you don't think you are though.) Anyway, you can talk to your dad and let him know you two are just really close and there's nothing more to it. Best of luck :) :clover:

We are the same sex. He told his dad that we were just friends and I know this because He told me about it. I wasn’t there when it happened. Idk if I want to be more than friends, i think I like our relationship how it is

I agree with elfin. There’s nothing wrong with any of this regardless of where this friendship is or goes
I wouldn’t feel awkward about it at all. I’d actually feel really good and solid that you have a friend that close. We don’t get friends like that everyday
As far as it’s dad asking that’s kinda like a no brained honest question. Doesn’t sound like his dad was being judgmental or anything, probably just looking to understand his own kid more
Don’t sweat the small shit like that bro you got a good friend, dont let that get between you and a good friend

[rohancool]

It's okay don't let go if he is a good friend to you just because of social judgement. Even if he is more than a friend then also it's fine and completely legal. Talk to your dad but never let what he thinks of your friendship influence your relationship with your friend. Good luck!

If your really just good friends then tell his dad that.

The way that you say "I think" makes me wonder if you are just nervous about the idea of a homosexual relationship. Make sure that you make a decision that you want to live with.

Once you figure out what you want you need to have a conversation with your friend. You need to discuss taking the relationship to the next step or make sure that you aren't sending mixed signals.

There is nothing wrong with being close with a friend and having a special bond where you can share life together is amazing. Parents may think you are gay, but that is a sign that you are doing friendship correctly and that you are more like brothers. There is a difference between guylove and gaylove.

Just have your friend tell his dad you guys are friends. It is perfectly fine to have physical contact with your friends.

People who think it is ok to cuddle your pets, but wrong to cuddle your friends are weird. You guys are fine!
