I like my close friend...a lot

<p>if she calls you “brother” then that just tells you she’s not interested in you that way. Any person who refers to the opposite sex as a sibling indicates that they like you the way they love/like their family members. It’s just the way it is. –>
“I’m younger than her, she calls me her brother, and we’re just really close friends.”</p>

<p>And how exactly do you describe “relationship stuff” for example–>
“So here’s another complication to all of this. Our friendship is kind of an odd one…we sort of act like we’re in a relationship even though we aren’t and even though she doesn’t like me. Like we do a lot of relationship like stuff. I don’t know what to make of that.”</p>

<p>and fyi if the girl isn’t interested in you and you decide to tell her your feelings… the friendship after your confession will become awkward; that is, unless your friendship is strong enough to survive such a confession.</p>

<p>and WCF the guy doesn’t always fall for the friend. The girl does too.</p>

<p>You want to be safe or take a risk?
Safe:
Stay friends, do what you been doing?
Risk:
Ignore her for a bit. Seriously, start doing other things and keep distance. After a 2-3 weeks, she will be wondering (she was already worried when you flaked on her just once), only respond to her calls but don’t make it long and say you have been busy. Then after those weeks, re-game as more than a friend as in tease her, show her you have options, etc.</p>

<p>Hey guys, thanks for the further advice. So, thanks to my amazing luck, i think she realized i like her and i’m pretty sure she doesn’t feel the same way…so now she’s being different. Whatever I guess, another friend gone. **** my life.</p>
