ORIGINAL: Sub03 A Dom friend of mine that I have known for over 3 years as a very good friend just told me some news that I have no idea what to do with. He has been my friend through everything the last few years, he has been there for the past year as a great friend and someone to talk to since my Master has been gone. I tell him everything, any problem I have usually gets to him eventually. He has been one of my closest friends and I care for him alot. Now today he revealed that he cares for me as more then a friend. That he has wanted me for himself all this time. I honestly and sincerly had no idea, clueless on my part maybe but I really didnt know. He says he has told me in the past but either I missed the signs or he really wasn't clear. Anyway know I know and I am very happily taken. So what do I do with this information? I don't want to lose him as a friend, I would hate to lose him as a friend. And I don't want things to be weird between us but I don't know if I can talk to him in the same way that I have in the past. I have always talked to him about my relationships and stuff like that, I cant exactly do that now. What do I do? Act like he never told me and be the same way I have always been with him? Or do I change the way I act around him? Has anyone else gone through something like this? Any words of advice? Anything? My immediate thoughts: Do not send mixed signals. This means you need to quickly decide what you want, and then stick to your guns on this one. If you are happily taken, as you claim, then you shouldn't even have to be asking this question because the answer is obvious: Tell him you are flattered, and you appreciate what he has said, but then tell him no very firmly and that you are taken. There is no complication here, and if he is a reasonable human being, he will understand.
