Advice for handling an unexpected romance with one of my closest friends of 10+ years. Truly came out of nowhere.
Will try in keep this short but I’ve been friends with this guy for 10+ years and he’s always been so supportive of me, wonderful to my children and we have a ton in common. I have never thought of him as anything more than a great friend.
However a month ago we were out and ended up dancing and holding hands and just having fun. That next weekend, went out again and ended up making out, almost having sex and he confessed to loving me.
I’m so confused since this came out of nowhere for me. Do I explore this? I haven’t stopped thinking about it since it happened. I just don’t want to ruin the friendship but may have already crossed that line.
