How can you tell if it's romance or if you're just friends? Are there ways to tell what he's actually feeling, short of bugging his friends or him by pestering them for answers? Can his body language tell you anything? Did he mean what you though he did, or something else entirely, when he said what he just said? Can you ever truly know how he feels without questioning him directly?
Let's take the time to take a look at how, in a few fairly simple steps, a close friendship can grow and bloom into the next stage of actual romance, and you can know what exactly he wants! Curious?
Then keep reading...
First, don't be afraid to just come right out and tell him how you feel.
Don't be shy; open up a little. Take a chance. You don't have to whack him in the head with a blunt object to let him know that you'd like to take things in a different, more interesting (i.e., romantic) direction, but if he doesn't have any idea that you're interested, he may be reluctant to tell you how he really feels. Chances are he'll be flattered that you find him attractive in that way. And if not, then it's better to know that now than to hope for something that's never going to happen. Wouldn't you agree?
Second, don't expect too much too soon!
Don't obsess about getting a direct answer. And if you get an unexpected response, don't jump to conclusions about what it means (or doesn't mean)! Honestly, some of my most incredible relationships started with us being "just friends" and seemed destined to stay in that mode until, suddenly, they just "blossomed" into... romance! Besides, if your friendship is ever going to stand a chance of working out as a romantic relationship, you have to develop a solid friendship first.
Third, don't play games.
Be authentic. Be honest. Be open about your feelings. There isn't a one-size-fits-all playbook for taking a "just friends" relationship to the next level. In fact, it may never happen at all. But, if you're not authentic and honest and open with him (and yourself!), it won't really matter whether it does or not, because a relationship built on lies is doomed to fail.
On the other hand, if you stay completely authentic, open, and honest about who you are, what you feel, and what you're hoping for, if it does bloom into romance, the relationship will be built on solid ground and will have a much greater chance of succeeding over the long haul.
Fourth, get a love reading from a credible psychic.
Don't laugh: did you know that the group of people most likely to get a psychic reading are professional, college-educated women between the ages of 25-55? And the one thing they're looking for advice about more than any other is love and romance. That's right, the biggest audience for psychic readings are ordinary people just like you and me who are looking to find out if their true soulmate is already in their lives.
