Dating a Friend Experiences
This topic was created in the Dating forum by MilaniKisses on Monday, May 1, 2017 and has 3 replies.
Hi All,
A friend of mine that I've known for a few years popped the question on me this past weekend. The question being "Can we be exclusive?" He and I had always had a good friendship and at one point, I did want to date him. Our friendship had always been a little bit more than just friends, as we've held hands and kissed before.
This is all new territory for me as I had never dated anyone that I actually knew. I have a few questions about dating a friend for those ONLY who have experienced this.
1) Is there a honeymoon/infatuation phase? That excitement of 'new' isnt there for me...
2) Is there an adjustment period to see them more than just a friend, but rather a BF/GF? I still see him as I've seen him before.... the friend that I have always know him to be. I just know now that we're committed to each other.
3) Were you two ever intimate while being friends? He and I went out several times, held hands, kissed, hugged and slept in the same bed.
4) Am I supposed to act any differently? I know its a dumb question and the answer is obvious, but I don't know if I should act more like a 'girlfriend' or just continue acting as his friend...
Thank you,
Milani

Dating Friend can be the best decision in your life or the worst you would have made.
Yes there will be an adjustment period, and lots of talks about expectations.. but communication shouldn't be a problem at this point.
You'll know if it works out or not by the 3-4 month.

Since trolling is a major feature of the site, add a "shade" button that can sit next to the "like" button. It basically can work similar to the "like" button but intended if you want to throw shade. You can even add an anonymous option.

Hi
Would anyone here be willing and able to look at four charts and give me an idea of how the individuals relate to one another? I think I'm looking at some pretty nutty stuff going on, but I'm not sure, which is why I'm here :)
Thank you!

I've come to the conclusion that Taurus males play hot/cold/disappearing/I'm busy games. I am no longer asking why. Every Taurus male I've met does it. (I'm pretty sure there are some exceptions out there but I can not relate.)

But l'm done drawing the transits, too many people just put a "like", not even a "yeah that's quite accurate" or "not really, maybe this and this, but not this, it was more like this". Im putting an effort in, and from some people theres nothing in return
