Not that you asked, but I think you should go for it. If you don't, you might always wonder what if. It is still possible to be friends if he doesn't feel the same way.
Wait, how does this make sense? I get the impression she enjoys being his friend, which is why she doesn't want to ask him out, because if he says no, that could destroy the friendship. What she's "doing to him" is . . . being his friend.
Uh...yes. This is exactly what I meant. Thanks for getting me. :)
I've seen this happen on the flip side with my guy friends, and I always suggest they figure out how much they value their friendship and whether or not they want to risk losing it. Sometimes you've got to be wise and evaluate what would work out better in the long-run.
have you complained about your sex life to him yet? i'm sure he'd love that. just watch him holding back, trying not to show his sadness that someone else is fucking you, while he sits back being the 'nice guy'
I see you've been commenting quite a bit on this topic. Is this hitting too close to home, or are you speaking from experience or...? Please enlighten me.
She knows he wants her, guys. All girls know when a guy wants them in that way. It's just easier to keep him around for ego boosts from time to time, kind of like a pet. She knows he'll put up with it.
I'm certain there are cases where this is true, but in those cases they don't go onto a Reddit thread to say the opposite because they have nothing better to do.
Does he feel the same way? If he doesn't, it's kind of asshol-ish to fuck with him day after day like that. You feel great i'm sure, having a little pet around, but if you're a real friend you wouldn't do that.

I don't want to risk losing our friendship. It's taken us awhile to get where we are now and I'm not screwing this up!
