is there a benefit in telling a friend you like them as more than a friend if you're almost certain it isn't reciprocated?
No

only if you're like obsessed and can't stop thinking about the "what if."
then it can help you move on. otherwise, no.
>>29940547
No, its a complete waste of time
If I assume your friend is female this is how it works
>you thought when you first met you'd become friends, then maybe something more
>within a minute of talking to you she's already made up her mind if you're boyfriend material or an emotional towel
You'll probably end up having to cut contact if you tell her

my last girlfriend rejected me multiple times before we dated for a year
>>29940624
>normalfag trying to be relevant
>why dont you just keep trying itll work bro
>muh girlfriend therefor everything I say works
I was giving OP actual advice instead of trying to give a pseudo just B urself
>>29940721
i am op, and i do want advice. i just also don't want to rule out anything yet
>>29940749
well if you're a stupid normalfag you shouldn't have any problem
Why even bother posting if you already have all the answers you want
Fuck off and just get another girlfriend
>>29940771
what the fuck kinda autistic irrelevant shit are you talking about. i don't have the answers, I'm exploring possibilities
>>29940791
>dumb normalfag can't even read english
Go post your stupid shit on /b/ so you can get the answers you need from 15 year olds
>>29940815
you really want to be seen as an outlier, don't you?
>>29940837
I don't need to be seen as anything
You're the outlier on this board, go leave to /soc/ where normalfags congregate
Nobody here gives a shit about your girlfriends or what you should do to get another girlfriend
>>29940873
You're the one who's trying so hard to be a quirky indie movie character.
im just talking about a friend who I like too much, that doesn't seem too different from what you guys talk about
>>29940911
>how do I get gf
>what should I do to make this girl from friend to GF
>has had girlfriends
>you guys do this all the time
Just fucking post your shit on an /adv/ thread, the literal board made to answer dumb questions like your own one.
Nobody wants to read normalfags complain about their "problems"
>You're the one who's trying so hard to be a quirky indie movie character.
Top jej, so this is babbies first post too? fuck off
>>29940973
>I don't want to see normalfags complain about their "problems"
>Proceeds to make multiple posts with anime characters why he doesn't matter here
Stop acting so edgy damn
>>29941067
>>edgy
>>>/r/eddit/
Thats quite the good place for you
Depends
Does she already have existing feelings for another that you know?
Confirmation, closure.
>>29941089
Its confusing, you were helping OP in the beginning but now you're acting like a complete ass towards him. wtf happened
>>29941134
Pretty simple really
>give him genuine advice
He responds with
>but muh girlfriend therefore what you said is irrelivant
Dumb normalfags are annoying
>>29941193
Lol just read the whole thread correctly.
Yeah OP fukc off
>>29941090
If she does, she hasn't told me. which I think is unlikely because we talk very often
>>29941246
you sure you read it right? he have me legitimate advice, but he spoke in absolutes. i brought up anecdotal evidence to promote discussion that wouldn't deal with absolutes
>>29940547
Honestly just tell her. If she gets awkward and she doesn't want to hang anymore then she was never worth it from the start.
>>29940624
Do you think the fact that you only dated for a year could have been predicted by the fact that you were rejected several times?
I admire your persistence either way. It's so depressing when people give up on the first try, like they didn't actually care to begin with.
Ok bunch of autists in here, as per usual, but you should do it. Dont be a sperg, and dont cut off all contact, still be friends after, just not at the same level.
It really is a massive relief, at least in my experience. I was pretty muhc in love with a friend of mine, asked her out and got rejected, and though I was sad for a few days, the relief was really great, and we're still friends, admittedly it can be awkward though. Worth
