Is there such a thing as have feelings for someone close to you but you don't realise it until something happens (like in the movies)?
Don't think it really happens. I would veto for the circumstance where the girl wanted the guy to pursue her (she KNOWS she fell for the guy) but when the guy go out with some other girl, she'd be heartbroken (and says that she JUST realized that she like the guy in question)
hmm.. i don't know. something similar happened to me though, kind of. apparently i grew close to this person within a week and everyone else noticed. at the end of the week, my friend asks if i like that person and seeing as i didn't even notice myself, i said no. but then i developed feelings for that person. i don't know if those feelings were there already or came after my friend asked me that question..
Well, the term feeling is kind of vague. If you spend a prolonged period of time with certain person(s) you of course will develop some feeling (of sorts) towards him/her/them. But is it companionship love? Totally. Can be it the romantic love? Can be but not very likely. We are emotionally attached to people around us (and sometimes become possessive about it) doesn't mean we fall for any other person we spend time with. @CNB: Sorry if it offended, but that's what I truly believe.
^ i'm not offended at all. what you said certainly helps me clear the confusion. i wasn't even sure if i really liked that person but i noticed that i would be nervous around him and really self-conscious. so, finally after about a year can i finally be near him and not feel uneasy at all. so perhaps it was infatuation. ehh, i don't know.
Well.....I did have a thing or a fling for one of my friend.. I did realize it, but I think there is such thing that you don't realize your own feelings
I am not quite sure what you mean by until something happens. Maybe if you give a scenario... -shrug As far as I am concerned; it doesn't happen to me. I am quite aware of my own feelings (thank God) even though sometimes I can be in denial. But being in denial; I'd have to be aware of my true feelings in the first place
Yeah, that's what I meant (partially), most just get into denial in their feeling and then go heartbroken
yes! it can happen!!! you could be really good friends w/ someone and get in that steady flirty relationship where your just friends. sometimes it'll stay flirty but if you find yourself constantly thinking bout that person and vice versa... something should be done
i think it can happen sometimes and it will depend more on the circumstances like some others say..when u are really close to someone, u will develop some feelings that at first u won't notice...and one day, for X reasons u will see how important is that person for u..but most of the time, it's too late ....
@WinterSky: But if two person are flirting it is kind of odd to say if they don't realize they have some romantic feelings towards the other.
IT totallly HAPPENS it happened to me once i got into this huge fight with one my best friends which ended up ending our friendship so i went to hang out with this other friend i wasnt close with at all, cause i didn't want to go home and be by myself we ended up hanging out ALL the time for the next several weeks than one day we were chatting and decided we were spending a little TOO much time together, people started thinking we were dating, when that wasn't the case so that day we didn't hang out i went nutz i wasn't by myself, i was with my mom but i couldn't stop missing him, wishing i was hanging out with him and then it hit me "Do i like him?" well lets say he was very happy when i called him that night and several weeks later we started dating that lasted about 9 months oh sweet memories
yup... thas very TVB right there.. wait close to you like a friend... or close to you like your close cousin!?! cause that could get pretty dangerous...
