Is it normal to love your platonic friend but can't come to kiss him?

I have a platonic friend that I love dearly. I always seem to compare him with my ex's and I've found myself thinking how much more comfortable I feel with him than I do with them. He really want us to become something more, but the only thing that stops me is the fact that I can't seem to kiss him whole heartedly without cringing away. It's like I'm kissing my brother. If that issue weren't present, I feel we would be perfect. Is that normal?

    Don't give me that old "he's like a brother" routine. He's just a friend that you like a lot. You're not attracted to him. You clearly don't love him dearly, so stop messing him about.

    This is where the friend zone backfires.

  • I've told him countless times that there's never gonna be anything between us other than friendship. These are just thoughts in my head.

      Why not ? What else do you need than being happy with someone you really like ?

      • That's what I thought too, but that whole ''I can't kiss him'' thing is just way too big of an issue. If I'm in a relationship, I want both an emotional and physical connection. And I'm pretty sure it would bother him if I refuse to kiss him....

    Are you a male or female ? And is your friend a male or female ?
