Is it normal to want to just be friends?
A couple years ago I fell for this guy, "Chad". Chad and I quickly became good friends and were best friends for about a year even though I had a crush on him the whole time. Last summer, we started dating and I was so happy, but now I feel like it was better to just be friends. I still love him, just not in "that way". I can't imagine life without him, and I think of his family like they're my own. Is it normal to want to just be friends?
Any suggestions on how not to break his heart?
