Crush On Female Bsf

Y’all, I need some guidance. I have a crush on my female best friend who claims she is straight. However, whenever we visit each other(Long distance bestiesss!), she’s giving me mixed signals. I’ve never had this close of a friendship before and I’m not so sure if I should make a move on her.

I’ll list all the signals I “think” are possibly something more!

Mixed signals:

• Always bringing up gay topics with me

• Always making eye contact with me during a conversation with the group(Her brother, me, my brother and her) It feels directed towards me.

• Subtle text flirting, like she’ll send me a *** vid and the caption will say something like “How it feels to talk to someone with the same humor as you so things keep getting funnier,” or “Me when a horror game instructs me to “go outside and investigate.” With a guy side-eyeing the screen.

• Repeatedly saying men are gross or getting grossed out with men, saying she’s not ready for a relationship.

• Always seeking me out first

• We both keep the text conversation going, text almost everyday.

• While we were playing a Roblox horror game once, she said, “You’re supposed to be protecting me! I’m just the dainty little girl!” Then a second time where I was trolling with a boy avatar and she said, “You’re the man! You’re supposed to protect the lady!”

• Always calls me Baked Bean whenever I call her Skyscraper. (She’s taller than me by a couple inches)

Guys, is this just friendly affection, or is this lowkey something more? Be honest!

It sounds like you have a great friendship and I would enjoy that and focus on that and if things are meant to be different, they will happen organically , follow her lead for now, and see where things go, with no pressure 🩷🤗

Honestly this is so common. I think Amanda gave you good advice. When someone this close identifies as straight when they could easily have told you otherwise, is not something you should take lightly. You really only can take their word for it and all the confusing behavior that you're seeing as evidence she might be interested in more, is, well, wishful thinking. Or at least you need to see it as that or you will find yourself being hurt. I started off by saying this is common because I dunno I feel like I've heard this same story from so many of my queer friends it's like straight friends somehow play this unconscious game of being vague and flirty with mixed signals. She likely has no idea what she's actually doing to you emotionally. It sucks being in this situation but yeah, you should just try not to read into her behavior and see it as her way of treating a close friend. Sorry if this was a depressing response.
