Today, I went home after work with my best friend who I am also secretly in love with. We had a few drinks, were getting touchy, and one thing led to another. Before leaving, I got the courage to ask her out on a real date. Her only reply was, "I don't want to lose such a good friend." FML

Medication tells us more.

I didn't have an account when I posted this, but I'm the OP, and honestly, during our drunken state, I mustered up enough sobriety to prevent things from going too far. I as well, didn't want to ruin things between us by having sex because I respected her too much, and wanted more than that. Was it the right thing to do, or was I just being a dumbass? One commenter was correct in stating that she was confused as to what she really wanted. Either way, we've talked it out, and moved over that. It's better anyways maybe, considering we both work together and I have to go on months long deployments with this girl, haha. :]

it's not she doesn't want to lose such a friend like you. it's because she doesn't crush on you at all. let it go.

Seriously if you don't want to be friendzoned talk to her. If you really care about her then you'll continue to be her friend. Don't feel like waiting forever? just move on. But if you do decide to keep being her friend don't spend all your time bitching about being frienzoned like most guys do. You know what you're getting into no one is forcing you to be her friend! the end. (:

Her response could have been a lot worse, you could've lost her as a friend altogether. Be grateful, who knows she might rethink it

Why is this thumbed down so much?! It is a sympathetic statement that depicts a feeling that most should be able to relate to, and doesn't make any assumptions in giving OP advice. In fact, it doesn't give OP advice, it just gives support.

She's your "best friend" but you guys already crossed the line when getting touchy. She doesn't like you, get over it. Not every girl you find attractive will fall in love with you. If you really value her as a friend, stop trying to be more than that.

That poor girl just got girlfriendzoned, sucks for her...
