This is how girls feel when guys do this huge confession thing about their feelings.

This has been the most interesting thing about the situation, it's given me perspective on how female friends I've had feelings for, and then told, have felt.

The thing is last year I told a friend I had feelings for her, she didn't return them and we haven't really been close friends since. I still see her around and we smile and wave, maybe have a small conversation, but I needed the space to get over her and it wasn't fair on to burden her with my feelings by trying to remain friends straight away.

Steve seems desperate for there to be no space between us, he's said at least five times anything changing between us would be "unbearable". I'm starting to think he doesn't want to get over his feelings, which I can sympathises, with I didn't want to not see that girl, but I had to stop seeing her to get over.

Me and Steve have plans this evening, tomorrow, over the weekend and so on. It feels like a little much, particularly when of the next four times we have plans (over the next week) three of them will be just us two. Our friendship really took off about a year ago, had been friends for two years prior but he became one of my best friends over the last year. I'm not sure if this increased closeness was motivated on his end by his feelings and if so are they too engrained in our relationship for him to get over them?

I'm getting worried Steve has no desire to get over me, hopefully that doesn't sound arrogant, and that's not healthy for either of us. He'll never move on and be happy, and I can't take everything we hang out he spends the whole time trying to loving look into my eyes.
