Aug 17, 2018 at 14:35 | comment | added | Ynneadwraith | This is the advice I'd offer, having been the person on the other end of a similar equation. Honestly, the only point I actually got over my romantic feelings was when we started seeing less of each other. Felt really crap at the time, but afterwards I saw it as the best thing that could have happened to me at the time. I should mention that we're no longer close friends, but that's as much due to distance as anything. If we lived closer, I'd still count her as a friend. | |

Aug 17, 2018 at 6:40 | comment | added | Mithical | Hey, thanks for taking the time to write this, but I'm having trouble seeing how this answers the OP's question - the OP has stated that she does not want to abandon the friendship. Could you please explain how this answers the OP's question? | |
