The love used to be unrequited. now it's just confusing.

I am a college freshman. I met this guy in October, and fell absolutely head over heels for him. Hoping to be successful, I pursued him--but alas, instead of becoming his girlfriend, I became his best friend. Over the last few months, I've still been...

enamoured with him, and we spend almost every waking moment together. He has, to my upset, hooked up with other girls; however, none of them have been serious. I haven't gotten the feeling that he's romantically interested, although I suspect there must be something attractive about me if he's willing to spend all of his time with me.

This Friday, we were drinking and he began playfully flirting, which is normal for us. Instead of keeping it innocent as usual, however, we ended up making out for a while--almost two hours--from the bar, to our dorm, to my and then his bedroom. We were both inebriated.

He hasn't mentioned it since then, and I'm not sure what, if anything, I should do. I want to maintain my friendship with him at the very least. I've never felt the compassion I feel for him with anyone else. At the same time, we've only known each other for three months, so the friendship is very young. I want to know if he kissed me--and continued to kiss me--because he, deep down, is attracted to me, or if it was just because he was drunk and I was the closest one around. I'm scared to bring it up because I don't want him to know that I like him as much as I do.

So, what should I do? Mention the hook up? Confess my love? Keep quiet? Try for a repeat performance next time we're drinking?

i think you should go and talk to him one on one when hes sober and ask him exactly how he feels cos you know how u feel, or if u dnt wana do that ask him on a date to the movies or sumthin and see what happens,

I wouldn't go tell him directly, that's for sure. If you try to repeat it when you guys are drinking, this will end up in friends with benefits most probably. I think it will be best if you wait for a while. Maybe, he will mention it. If he doesn't you can just put it somewhere inbetween a nice conversation, or just start that game when both of you have to describe what happened according to them. Ask him to start first, so that you know how he feels about it. If he insists that you are first, you can say that you say one thing and he says one. You say you liked it, wait for his response and adjust to the way he expresses himself. This would be the less harmful option for you. Hope I helped
