Is it normal to be afraid to like someone?

So there's this guy I'm friends with that I've known for a couple months and I like him bu just like a friend. But it is obvious to everyone around me that he likes me as more than a friend. I like him too but am afraid to like him as more than a friend. Is that normal?

  • i had the same problem with a friend of mine. I like her and she didn't like me even though we were best friends and i knew on some level she liked/loved me.

    Did you feel something for a friend previously and he let you down? could be the source. It's your life do what you will but do the guy a favor and let him down gently.

    Its normal to be scared to take the risk - because you can really fuck up the friendship. But give it a go because you will just regret it later.

    I passed up on my best friend - he moved the entire world away and got engaged. I am currently in the same relationship I was when we were best friends - but I really to regret not acting on my feelings.
