Relationships that begin in friendship can be rewarding and comfortable because you already know each other’s imperfections and flaws and love each other all the more in spite of them. The most difficult aspect of transitioning from friendship to coupledom is simply admitting that you like one another. There is always the danger of risking a great, solid friendship for the sake of knowing the truth. But there is also danger in denying you and your friend a possible future filled with happiness and love.
Tbh, I've been thinking about the same scenario that I've been going through with my friend and potential lover for months since the beginning of 2022. Tho, my guy friend has had his own ideas across about how friends turned lovers can have its effects on one's relationship to develop. He once told me that it could strengthen the bonds between the two that started off as friends in a way that can very meaningful for the two of them.
Extra signs I notice: * They will try to make you laugh. They will reference inside jokes and try to involve you in what they find funny. * Maybe they'll act more stiff or nervous. Maybe they don't hug you as much as they used to because now they feel them differently. Touch suddenly feels more romantic and intimate so it's might happen more awkwardly. *They will include you in more groups: maybe you'll get asked to come with to a club they attend, or present you one of their hobbies. Maybe they suddenly are willing and excited for you to meet their family or friends. Including you in other areas of their life will result in more time together. Also, they might be more open and trusting to share a personal or more vulnerable side of themselves.
Your 2nd point is very interesting. My good friend suddenly stopped hugging me. He used to embrace me unexpectedly when we went to the club, and a couple times at my place during sleepovers. He kept all the gifts I gave him over the months we knew each other (met in February 2022). I noticed he would get awkward/nervous when I offered to hug. He would say "why are you acting like that?" I thought he hated me or thought I was weird. And it's contradicting because he usually wants me to sit next to him or go with me to the park or lunch. I'm still hoping he opens up to me more in the future. But lately I've opted to just pull back a little bit and play it cool. My friend calls/texts me often and it seems like he wants to be involved in my life. I really care for him and I just want things to unfold naturally with no expectations.
@@gamerboi_27 it will probably take time if anything happens... I hope you and your friend get to figure out where your relationship is going 🥰 communication is key though, and it helps that you intend to come without expectations. Both romanticism and friendship are supposed to be fun, so there is no rush or pressure either way ^-^ take good care 😊
@@userm180 Yes of course. He shows that he loves me through gifts. One time my friend told me he doesn't love easily. He has told me that he thinks I'm cute when we first met. Later on in the friendship I tried finding some answers, but he got quickly defensive and said "love is a strong word". So now I try not to expect his hugs or anything because I don't want it to seem like I "expect too much from him". One thing I know for sure is he's super sentimental. He took a blanket home with him that has my name on it. And more recently gave me amazing gifts for my bday. I'm guessing my friend is waiting for the right moment. We call each other "honey" sometimes. I noticed my friend remembers all the little details about me. Oh yeah... and one time he joked about being my boyfriend. I passed it off because I didn't know if he was being serious. I kind of wish I said "sure, yes" during that. Instead I said "I know you're joking - I view you as a good friend." I think we're both protecting our hearts because love puts you in a vulnerable spot. But for now I'm extremely happy that he views me as a friend. If it feels right to me, then of course I'll take a risk and tell him how I feel. He kind of already showed me what he feels for me, but I think he needs more time.
@@gamerboi_27 honestly you're handling this so mature. good for you for thinking this way!! sometimes ppl really do need more time for stuff like this. pls update me when things happen
That's the way I met my wife, everything started with a friendship, we were best friends, hung out, took walks together and talked and laughed a lot. one evening I had the courage to kiss her...on the forehead🤦♂️😅 I was too scated that I might be just a friend so I thought a kiss on the forehead can also be a ,,friends" thing. She replied with a real kiss😊 That was 15 years ago, the love of my life is still my best friend!!
I love my best friend since 7 years. We are such a great match and touchy and everything, like we meet weekly, always just the two of us. when we go out we always get compliments about how cute we are and all that. but she isn‘t interested in a romantic relationship sadly. but I never met another woman that got my heart the way she did. so I date, I have affairs from time to time, but in the back of my head, she‘s always there.
At the age of 27, I told my feelings towards a person for the first time and got rejected. It hurts badly, at this point in time these videos makes more sense.
I am sending virtual hugs to you! I know it hurts, but be proud of yourself for trying, bc you did the right thing! It is better to try than to sit and wonder :) I hope it gets better and the hurt will fade away quickly.. ;c
There are 5 love languages according to author Garry Chapman. They are, 1. Words of affirmation, Saying nice things and having good verbal communication. 2. Spending quality time, Just being together or being physically present. 3. Physical touch, Holding hands, cuddling, hugging etc. Not necessarily in a sexual manner but rather a romantic one. 4. Receiving gifts, Getting something thoughtful. 5. Acts of service, Doing nice things for each other. Everyone expresses their affection through all 5 of these ways. But we tend to gravitate towards one or two of them more than the others. So it is essential to have at least one common love language for a relationship to work long-term.
I have a tip, if your mutual friends start teasing the two of you about liking each other, even if they don't know you do, it's probably a sign there's something between you. I have found that it's alot easier to notice mutual interest from an outside perspective
I hate this bc my friend tried to tease me and my #1 bestest friend ab liking each other over a phone call (didn’t work bc my friend left to use the bathroom lol) and now I’m concerned
My wife is my best friend and we've been friends forever. Since we were kids. I was so nervous to ask her on a date but she told me shes been wishing I would for years. I told her I loved her in junior year in high school. And at 19 we were married and now have 2 beautiful kids. Shianna if you see this. I love you so much. And for anyone else reading this. Take the leap of faith and ask that special someone out. You never know what could happen.
aww thats so heartwarming meanwhile im currently wanting to know if a girl in my class likes me or not since my mind is on fire right now wanting to know if I gotta have romantic experiences right in 5th grade

Ahhh nothing better and more rewarding than starting as friends and end up becoming lovers. Everything feels more natural since both already know their own highs and lows. You don't need to demonstrate anything to each other. You just vibe with your partner.
@@meganmann9970 theyre really accurate in how I’m acting about my crush hehe Id be dead if he found out I have a crush on him through videos like these…
It’s really easy to know if you just tell them your feelings. It’s wayyy more difficult if you don’t have feelings for them, but just asking can be very beneficial
Yeah like when someone has a crush on you, you pay less attention than if you see your friend acting weird with someone it's way easier than when someone has a crush on YOU and you have to figure it out
I’ve got a massive crush on a friend. She’s perfect in my eyes, even though I can tell she doesn’t see it sometimes. I love and adore everything about her, and just being around her is enough to make me so much happier. She’s really affectionate with everyone too and my love language is primarily physical touch, especially cuddling. But I never see her in the summers and I’ve probably only got a few months to have a shot with her, and she has way better options around her than… me. I just want to be in her arms and be loved by her, I miss her more than life…
The way u expressed it is just amazing if u guys got together it feels like such sweet ship she must be lucky to have a frnd like u whom u absoultely adore goodluck mate
1.You'd want to know more about them. 2. You always jump at first chance to talk with them. 3. You'll feel excited every time they just say your name 4. You'll start saying things out of your own control when you're near them 5. A small compliment from them is enough to make your day
And there in lies the problem. When a friend wants more & you don't, you end up losing a friend because you can't go back to the way it was. When you give in & date the friend, you end up losing a friend when things go south. Either way you lose a friend.
For some reason i can only fell in love with someone if we are close Friends. I can feel atraction for other people but i just don't feel the same. Saddly i always get in the friendzone with the people i most care about.
I ended up so lost. Went on a few dates earlier this year with a coworker turned friend, from January - March, almost every week. She bought us zodiac mugs with each other's sign on them. (Not that we're into it, just thought it was neat) We got matching keychains. There was hand holding. She would find me at work just to hang out and hold my hand when it was slow days. She would lean on me when we talked. Finally told her I liked her, straight up asked if I could kiss her, she seemed excited, and we did. Then I have only spoken to her once since, and only through her brother by happenstance, and not for lack of trying. Either I'm a terrible kisser, or something else went wrong entirely. Big confusion.
It doesn’t matter why she’s not interested, but it’s clear she isn’t. That’s a tough pill to swallow, but trust me it’s better to walk away than beat yourself up wondering why. It’ll be especially hard if you still work with her…good luck
She obviously likes you and have feelings, but not enough to make her feel secure about taking another step with you. She's ghosting you emotionally which shows she's not ready and she's not very emotionally smart. Try to reach out and ask her that you just want to be clear about it and that she can be chill about it. But I honestly feel that is better to give an end to it. That type of avoidant people tend to hurt to people like you who are sure about their feelings.
Can you make video about when it's better to stay friends not be lovers? Lots of people don't wanna risk loosing a friend by starting romantic relationship with them. Many times it ruins the friendship if they broke up. So.. how to tell if you will be better as friends only?
You Love someone when you want to Give from yourself... You Lust after someone... when you want to Take 'from them'... Good to know the difference when your 'friend' comes onto you😌
I've been suspecting about a friend of mine for some time, but I didn't thought that it was something serious until they asked me If I was single right before asking me out. I was caught off guard, but after that I started to quickly connect the dots. I felt pretty dumb to not noticing before
Communication, reciprocation and commitment. If you don’t communicate, you can’t complain. Same goes for those in a romantic relationship. You may start off as a friends, though it’s not the same. You can go forth all you want, though nothing is ever the same once you introduce strong romantic feelings. One must think to themselves before getting involved. “Can I live without ever speaking to this person again?”
Me too. I think the check out gal at Safeway enjoys me as much as me her. I knew i shoulda complemented her on her new hair color. Lol. Next time. Whats the worst that could happen ...yeah?
@@Nashi_1981- not sure...lol. Maybe tell her she seems really cool and ask her what her n her family did for the 4th? If she says no family or anything of that matter. Perhaps post suggestion that aww...we should got together. Which woulda been super cool. I know theres an age difference (not bt a lot) but regardless, seems like a really cool human Thats what attracts me to her, not the looks. And she looks ok. I super, really just like the personality.
Sometimes the best thing to do is to say that you have a crush, so, you know you’re not falling for someone who has no intention of being with you, it’s good though. Truth will set you free!!

Never regret the courage you have to express your feelings. Some people live a life full of fear and wondering "what if". But you haven't and you should celebrate That!!! Even if the answer is not what you expected! Yes, It was another rejection and you have all the right to feel sad or frustrated. But that doesn't mean things has to be like this always. Maybe you should look up at why are you feeling attracted to people who tend to reject you? Maybe you are a very sensitive person and you're putting your eyes in people who don't value this? Try to figure out those similar things of people who rejected you and see if you could give yourself a chance to connect with other kind of people. Hugs!

She says she loves me all the time? Like in a friendly way? And I think she's super attached. She's always asking me to come over and we always talk. But she doesn't explain when she says that she cares about me a lot and it's frustrating. I don't know what to do lol
I would say don’t rush it. Be there for her and allow her to be there for you. If it happens, you two will be that much closer before it does. And if it doesn’t happen, you might have a best friend. 😊

How awkward when you dont feel the same way about them and dont want to go any further. They can become very bitter if you dont answer the call,and ultimately it begins to ruin friendship.And it becomes all or nothing if you dont want to advance, you would think it was obvious if you've known the person for years and they see signs of love ,when your just trying to be a good friend, but its not enough for them
Watch out for what they say about people you express romantic/sexual interest in. If they constantly find a way to put down the people you're interested in, that's potentially a big sign they're into you.
I remember I missed a fairly obvious hint from a friend in college this past semester. She "accidentally" grazed my arm during a listening assignment (we're both music majors) and I said a quick "oops, sorry 'bout that," and she just giggled. This was halfway through the semester, so she has to have moved on from any of those feelings
i recognise myself in this, it also made me realize that my crush, which i told i like her, never actually liked me. though she said she liked me but wasn't looking for a relationship. this video made me realise she didn't send any sighns. actually the opposite of everything. it made me realise she might have lied to me. maybe longer than i think.
We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I (do I) A full commitment's what I'm thinking of You wouldn't get this from any other guy I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you We've known each other for so long Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it (say it) Inside, we both know what's been going on (going on) We know the game and we're gonna play it And if you ask me how I'm feeling Don't tell me you're too blind to see Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you We've known each other for so long Your heart's been aching, but you're too shy to say it (to say it) Inside, we both know what's been going on (going on) We know the game and we're gonna play it I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
although these advices are great and valid, i think these r the extremely rare scenarios. in most cases, they won’t do that and will try and hide it and only use hints
I married my best friend. ❤️ Finding the courage to tell him I had feelings for him was the best decision I ever made. I would tell anyone who is on the fence about telling their friend that the potential reward is well worth the risk.
how the hell are y'all so in sync with my life, there's been so many things I've been curious abt and your videos pop up on my feed exactly at the right time 😂
I am incredibly close to my best friend, and match up with most of these, however I would never want to be in a relationship with him. We’re both on the aroace spectrum and every feeling is completely platonic. It’s probably the best type of relationship imo, less strings attached and more freedom
ive never had a crush feel like that before. ive always just felt like "i want to be best friends with this person, but more. i could spend the rest of my life with this man because he's a silly goober and he gets me."
So… this is entirely from my Personal experience… me and my childhood crush liked each other… we loved each other like crazy but both of us were too hesitant to open up to each other… both of us didn’t went into any other relationship… just bcuz we wanted to be with each other and each other only… we were soo hesitant to open upto each other regarding our feelings that it took us more than 8years to share our feelings… but finally now … after 8years of waiting for each other to open up, both of us are happily together and are looking for a lovely and happy future of us together ahead… wish us luck 🤞
The more time I spend time on watching Psych2Go, the more clearly I can see my crush doesn't have the mutual feelings as mine... But I still addicted to your videos
I would love it if someone expressed this towards me. I met two people online that both turned out clinically insane, and that's about it. Thanks for sharing the hints that another human may leave for me. I'll be looking for her...
Take your time... I dated 18 women before I met my wife (of almost 15 years married now😊)... 3 of the 18 women were gold diggers, one other turned out to be a prostitute and suicidal drug junkie (I felt sorry for her but later dumped her when she started scaring me😐)... one of the gold diggers started scheming to "off" my parents... so I would inherit their 'ample assets' I ditched her right away😖... one woman I thought I was in love with and wanted to propose to... had ADHD and was mildly bipolar with lots of personal issues. She needed someone with ALOT of patience... I tried... but she was too far gone and my house of cards collapsed. It became obvious to us both... that I was just "in lust" and not "in love"... that I didn't (and just couldn't) really respect her... so clearly was the wrong person for her. She dumped me and it took me awhile to get over it... but it was definitely the right decision. The rest were a combination of incompatible or just too much into mind games (especially a cute psychology major I briefly dated... loved to 'try out' what she learned in school on me... made me numb so I ditched her🙄 Yes, take your time... I was 33 when I met my wife (29 at the time) and if I could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing. I'm still as attracted to her today as I was 15 years ago. Her hot, 28 year old half sister has even taken to flirting with me lately (what middle aged guy wouldn't be flattered over that😂) and my main thought on that is... how to let her half sister down 'gently' (if she makes an actual move on me)... you know you married well, when you 'don't want to trade in the old model' (think vintage classic collectable) for that shiny new 'sports car'😂 Just my 2 cents, your life, your adventure... enjoy it! Goes fast...
I honestly think my current and ex relationship started off as friends, my gf is also my best friend. This means a lot to me, and if you’re able to be friends with someone you can be attracted to, then you have the best ground for a healthy relationship
It's really hard to make the call. I had an experience with a girl. We were really close. We were together during the day and speak only during the afternoon through the night. She was one of my best friend in my life and I wanted more. I fell in love with her, so I told her that I have stronger feeling towards her than friendship. She rejected me and not, so slowly this ruined our friendship. We separated not long after I confessed and never saw her again. Nowadays, I am really cautious to make the move towards a friend. It's the worst. It's worse than just getting rejected from a random girl. If things go bad you are getting hearth broken and lose a friend as well. 😔
Just my 2 cents here... but in that scenario, I'd patiently wait for her to recognize my feelings on her own, and make the first move 'once she's taken the time to process this.' You probably just caught her 'off guard' and she did a quick, knee jerk reaction. For sure, these are delicate situations...
Some of these apply to me and this one girl I've known for a long time. But haven't seen her or our circle of friends lately. 1. She would find reasons to sit with me or pull me away. Even when sitting, I noticed my shoulder rubbing hers or her moving closer. 2. This is something I'd probably do. Just us smiling together for a quick snapshot. 5. Yes, even when we met what feels like so long ago, I still get nervous around her. And she'd tell me it's okay. She was the one to make the first move. But we'd have moments where we bump into each other and just laugh it off. Maybe even mirroring. But there was one where we were that close she thought I tried to kiss her but I flirted a bit thinking she tried to kiss me. 6. I didn't really have bad luck in the love department but rumors about having girlfriends when I didn't. But hoping when I do see her after this long, we become closer and I become less nervous.
Have a girl that likes me at minimum as friends possibly beyond summer break right now tho will try in august and see how it goes but considering my luck is pretty clapped I don’t know how it will go
Maybe reach out to her and meet with her if possible? if you like her too, and feel happy around her, don't let it get lost in the hardships and the lack of time :)
My best friend told me she loves me one day ago and I already knew that and could stay calm it was my happiest day :) we are going well for now seeing this video now made me feel happy again
Also keep in mind that one or two of these behaviors being shown may not mean they like you romantically. As i listened, i noticed that my friend has two of these details, he often avoids talk about love, and he often notices little things about me, but i had asked him out before and he said 🙅♂️ It could be personal preference not to talk about love life. And it could be that you spend enough time together to notice small changes. I also realize that I like him way better as a friend, even if I do notice small changes in appearance and try to hang out a lot. I will say though, one time my sister was dead asleep and would not pick up her phone, so I had no ride home from school. I called him after drying my tears and asked if he could come get me. He was already at his house but he drove right back to school to come get me and drop me off at home. But it's not like we hang out all the time. We never hang out after school, and rarely talk outside of class. He has his friend group and I leave him to it, but it's nice to have somebody who isn't as afraid of driving as you are 😁
Well, she isn't a crush of mine, but I do deeply care about her. She is a gorgeous human being. We have been friends for like 4 years, and yet, our friendship is still as strong as it was in the beginning. She is definitely my best (and likely only true) friend.
Ah, to think of when both me and my then-crush-now-bf showed these signs to each other. I do not regret asking him out for Valentines Day in the slightest. Best decision of my life 🥰
OMG, you have such a wonderful and clear voice, I instantly fell in love with and subscribed to your channel. Also the video itself was very nice and heartwarming :)
Can you please do a video on how to recover from emotional trauma? It would help me a ton. I won't go into the nifty gritty, but I have moderate depression and severe anxiety, and I'm also a very emotionally sensitive person. I'm a strong empath. I have a hard time saying no. I'll never get mad or blame someone even if it's their fault. These traits have been used against me, and resulted in a nearly successful suicide attempt about a year ago. I still haven't recovered from it. My medications aren't doing much for me anymore and I don't know how to communicate my feelings with my therapist. It would mean the world. Thank you.
Perfect summary of my situation in terms of having feelings for a friend... Just that in my situation there is no option for a relationship. And I struggle real hard to deal with that. (The jealousy, and all other feelings attached to that predicament) I guess It would be healthy to limit contact or try to meet other people, but the first one hurts because I value the friendship (or mybe it's just my desire to spend more time with the person) and the second one is hard because I never had luck in finding someone.
The timing of this video is unreal! I just got home from my new friend's house (watched a movie) and was laying in bed wondering if he wants more than just a friendship....lately, I catch him staring at me with a dreamy smile on his face...he is always there for me and goes out if his way to accommodate me! Hmmmm....tonight he said I looked pretty 🙃 oh boy...
I had been trying so hard to find someone and kids at school just don't seem to really like me! I only had one friend who really wanted to with me but I'm just a little shy being around friends and just want someone NEW and better than my friend to LOVE! Thanks for reading this!
I’m in an awkward situation where one of my friends likes me romantically but I don’t feel the same way, and I’m not really sure what to do. It gets very awkward at times especially when they’re trying to flirt, etc
Kind of sounds like me, but it's over between us now. But I'm still confused at times about how he really felt. There were definitely signs that he had feelings for me too, but something happened and it went downhill. We never dated, but it still really hurt. It honestly kind of felt like a breakup. I still care about him tho...
Tuff me and my friend both had feelings for each other I was just to slow to pick up on hints and when I did she kinda was over it already then we kinda just got awkward
Im actually in that situation atm. It feels like she is giving so much signs but than she does the opposite and 10 minutes later she acting like she never did that shit 10 minutes earlier its just so fucking confusing...
Same thing happened to me. It still crushed my heart knowing he changed his mind/chose someone else/didn’t care as much as I did. He taught me what true heartache feels like. 💔💔💔
Likes me or like-likes me....that is the question. She used to work at the bakery I go to a lot, and we chatted and connected so many times. Heck, about a year ago, while I was working on my laptop, I saw her lift her head up in thought, before turning to me and saying, "How was your summer?" It was kind of random, but I appreciated her interest. On her last day (Jan 2023), she said my coffee was on her. One day, I ran into her at the bar. We chatted, and I said something about her bravely coming out of her shell better than me because of her singing karaoke during her first time here. Not long after, when she and her friends were singing again, she gestured me toward them and pointed to the lyrics on the screen. What's funny is I had told her I didn't like being in the spotlight during the said "out of shell" conversation. Not to criticize her encouragement. Just saying it's interesting and I'm wondering about her motive, perspective, and if it could've meant something. But perhaps not. I'm starting to wonder if she has a boyfriend. I saw her a few nights ago at a different bar. I pretended I didn't see her in the dancing crowd, she noticed me (I think after I accidentally bumped into her), put her hand on my arm to get my attention, and said hi. It was a very brief talk, given the dancing and loudness. So of course, I did not ask for her number or to be my date at the swing dance next month. But it's not just that. She was with a group of friends, and one of them was a guy she talked with. He _could_ have been her boyfriend. What would be the signs (aside from kissing, obviously). I'm curious about the connection (or contradiction) between the potential "she-likes-me" signs and the idea of her having a boyfriend. He's the main reason I didn't ask her anything. Should I, whether it be phone number or swing dance invite?
Comment below if you know someone in mind.

So many crush and love videos
Relationships that begin in friendship can be rewarding and comfortable because you already know each other’s imperfections and flaws and love each other all the more in spite of them. The most difficult aspect of transitioning from friendship to coupledom is simply admitting that you like one another. There is always the danger of risking a great, solid friendship for the sake of knowing the truth. But there is also danger in denying you and your friend a possible future filled with happiness and love.
Hmmm. Always been on the fence on this one.

Tbh, I've been thinking about the same scenario that I've been going through with my friend and potential lover for months since the beginning of 2022. Tho, my guy friend has had his own ideas across about how friends turned lovers can have its effects on one's relationship to develop. He once told me that it could strengthen the bonds between the two that started off as friends in a way that can very meaningful for the two of them.
@@mastermitser5693 You're just immature
@@geviesanta3631 That's amazing!
The only problem is I’m the friend who likes my best friend 😅
Same dude 🥲
Oooh ...good luck. I hope you get to end up with your best friend. 👍
Welcome to the club, mate
are you planning on making a move on them?
My best friend seriously said he loves me.🤦✨
Extra signs I notice:
* They will try to make you laugh. They will reference inside jokes and try to involve you in what they find funny.
* Maybe they'll act more stiff or nervous. Maybe they don't hug you as much as they used to because now they feel them differently. Touch suddenly feels more romantic and intimate so it's might happen more awkwardly.
*They will include you in more groups: maybe you'll get asked to come with to a club they attend, or present you one of their hobbies. Maybe they suddenly are willing and excited for you to meet their family or friends. Including you in other areas of their life will result in more time together. Also, they might be more open and trusting to share a personal or more vulnerable side of themselves.
Your 2nd point is very interesting. My good friend suddenly stopped hugging me. He used to embrace me unexpectedly when we went to the club, and a couple times at my place during sleepovers. He kept all the gifts I gave him over the months we knew each other (met in February 2022). I noticed he would get awkward/nervous when I offered to hug. He would say "why are you acting like that?" I thought he hated me or thought I was weird. And it's contradicting because he usually wants me to sit next to him or go with me to the park or lunch.
I'm still hoping he opens up to me more in the future. But lately I've opted to just pull back a little bit and play it cool. My friend calls/texts me often and it seems like he wants to be involved in my life. I really care for him and I just want things to unfold naturally with no expectations.
@@gamerboi_27 it will probably take time if anything happens... I hope you and your friend get to figure out where your relationship is going 🥰 communication is key though, and it helps that you intend to come without expectations. Both romanticism and friendship are supposed to be fun, so there is no rush or pressure either way ^-^ take good care 😊
@@gamerboi_27 do you like him too?
@@userm180 Yes of course. He shows that he loves me through gifts. One time my friend told me he doesn't love easily. He has told me that he thinks I'm cute when we first met. Later on in the friendship I tried finding some answers, but he got quickly defensive and said "love is a strong word". So now I try not to expect his hugs or anything because I don't want it to seem like I "expect too much from him".
One thing I know for sure is he's super sentimental. He took a blanket home with him that has my name on it. And more recently gave me amazing gifts for my bday.
I'm guessing my friend is waiting for the right moment. We call each other "honey" sometimes. I noticed my friend remembers all the little details about me. Oh yeah... and one time he joked about being my boyfriend. I passed it off because I didn't know if he was being serious. I kind of wish I said "sure, yes" during that. Instead I said "I know you're joking - I view you as a good friend."
I think we're both protecting our hearts because love puts you in a vulnerable spot. But for now I'm extremely happy that he views me as a friend. If it feels right to me, then of course I'll take a risk and tell him how I feel. He kind of already showed me what he feels for me, but I think he needs more time.
@@gamerboi_27 honestly you're handling this so mature. good for you for thinking this way!! sometimes ppl really do need more time for stuff like this. pls update me when things happen
That's the way I met my wife, everything started with a friendship, we were best friends, hung out, took walks together and talked and laughed a lot. one evening I had the courage to kiss her...on the forehead🤦♂️😅 I was too scated that I might be just a friend so I thought a kiss on the forehead can also be a ,,friends" thing. She replied with a real kiss😊
That was 15 years ago, the love of my life is still my best friend!!
You won at life King! May your marriage prosper forever ❤️👑🎉
Too bad for me ...mine is my enemy ...
I love my best friend since 7 years. We are such a great match and touchy and everything, like we meet weekly, always just the two of us. when we go out we always get compliments about how cute we are and all that. but she isn‘t interested in a romantic relationship sadly. but I never met another woman that got my heart the way she did. so I date, I have affairs from time to time, but in the back of my head, she‘s always there.
Ahhhh i am so jealous
update: we‘re actually a cupple now 🤯
At the age of 27, I told my feelings towards a person for the first time and got rejected. It hurts badly, at this point in time these videos makes more sense.
Try to see it as a redirection, not a rejection. It just means they weren’t the right person for you
@@jaspernelligan I don't know but okay thanks
it hurts but it's not the end of the world 😤
The important is not what the response is but that you were brave to share
I am sending virtual hugs to you! I know it hurts, but be proud of yourself for trying, bc you did the right thing! It is better to try than to sit and wonder :) I hope it gets better and the hurt will fade away quickly.. ;c
There are 5 love languages according to author Garry Chapman.
They are,
1. Words of affirmation,
Saying nice things and having good verbal communication.
2. Spending quality time,
Just being together or being physically present.
3. Physical touch,
Holding hands, cuddling, hugging etc. Not necessarily in a sexual manner but rather a romantic one.
4. Receiving gifts,
Getting something thoughtful.
5. Acts of service,
Doing nice things for each other.
Everyone expresses their affection through all 5 of these ways. But we tend to gravitate towards one or two of them more than the others. So it is essential to have at least one common love language for a relationship to work long-term.
Bruh you skipped 4
I need to find some nice thongs then
Nice thongs does sound good...
"5. Acts of service,
Doing nice thongs for each other."
Ty, 4. Is self explanatory.
I have a tip, if your mutual friends start teasing the two of you about liking each other, even if they don't know you do, it's probably a sign there's something between you. I have found that it's alot easier to notice mutual interest from an outside perspective
I agree!!
Lemme guess: "Everyone can see it...except them."
That was me and my friend last year...i got them flowers and stuff for their birthday this year...idk I think I missed my chance.
I hate this bc my friend tried to tease me and my #1 bestest friend ab liking each other over a phone call (didn’t work bc my friend left to use the bathroom lol) and now I’m concerned
My wife is my best friend and we've been friends forever. Since we were kids. I was so nervous to ask her on a date but she told me shes been wishing I would for years. I told her I loved her in junior year in high school. And at 19 we were married and now have 2 beautiful kids. Shianna if you see this. I love you so much. And for anyone else reading this. Take the leap of faith and ask that special someone out. You never know what could happen.

@The PK Brothers - Inspire & Nature 😊
Thank you 😊
Ahhh nothing better and more rewarding than starting as friends and end up becoming lovers. Everything feels more natural since both already know their own highs and lows. You don't need to demonstrate anything to each other. You just vibe with your partner.
So many videos about love…
This is starting to feel like a sign of psych2go for me to confess to my crush lol
They’ve been way too accurate for me lately lol
@@meganmann9970 theyre really accurate in how I’m acting about my crush hehe
Id be dead if he found out I have a crush on him through videos like these…
I just so happened to be getting a ton of these right around when I started liking a close friend lol
It’s really easy to know if you just tell them your feelings. It’s wayyy more difficult if you don’t have feelings for them, but just asking can be very beneficial
Ah yes. If you just tell them “you are” feelings.
Yeah like when someone has a crush on you, you pay less attention than if you see your friend acting weird with someone it's way easier than when someone has a crush on YOU and you have to figure it out
@mahdude… that‘s… well, trash, most mildly put. and such framing may cost you decades of life, evaporizing to nowhere, eventually.
I think finding a job might actually be a lot easier than finding love...
Hi, Feelings, I'm dad!
I’ve got a massive crush on a friend. She’s perfect in my eyes, even though I can tell she doesn’t see it sometimes. I love and adore everything about her, and just being around her is enough to make me so much happier. She’s really affectionate with everyone too and my love language is primarily physical touch, especially cuddling. But I never see her in the summers and I’ve probably only got a few months to have a shot with her, and she has way better options around her than… me.
I just want to be in her arms and be loved by her, I miss her more than life…
Please tell us if things change😊
The way u expressed it is just amazing if u guys got together it feels like such sweet ship she must be lucky to have a frnd like u whom u absoultely adore goodluck mate
bruh keep us posted
Same man.
I feel u bro.... I feel u
1.You'd want to know more about them.
2. You always jump at first chance to talk with them.
3. You'll feel excited every time they just say your name
4. You'll start saying things out of your own control when you're near them
5. A small compliment from them is enough to make your day
And there in lies the problem. When a friend wants more & you don't, you end up losing a friend because you can't go back to the way it was. When you give in & date the friend, you end up losing a friend when things go south. Either way you lose a friend.
This is so sad that I’ve never experienced anyone being mutually in love with me that this video made cry 😢
I feel this one too hard
I'm pretty much in the same boat. I had been giving up hope on being able to get into a relationship for as long as I can remember
People confuse love with infatuation. And that usually ends. So...
Still better than crushing your feelings at the finish line. You get all the signs but at the end you get a "Nah I don't like you that way"
For some reason i can only fell in love with someone if we are close Friends. I can feel atraction for other people but i just don't feel the same. Saddly i always get in the friendzone with the people i most care about.
I know I'm late, but that sounds like demiromantic!
I ended up so lost.
Went on a few dates earlier this year with a coworker turned friend, from January - March, almost every week.
She bought us zodiac mugs with each other's sign on them. (Not that we're into it, just thought it was neat)
We got matching keychains.
There was hand holding.
She would find me at work just to hang out and hold my hand when it was slow days.
She would lean on me when we talked.
Finally told her I liked her, straight up asked if I could kiss her, she seemed excited, and we did.
Then I have only spoken to her once since, and only through her brother by happenstance, and not for lack of trying.
Either I'm a terrible kisser, or something else went wrong entirely.
Big confusion.
You should probably contact her and talk it out clearly 🙂
maybe she's not ready for a relationship
It doesn’t matter why she’s not interested, but it’s clear she isn’t. That’s a tough pill to swallow, but trust me it’s better to walk away than beat yourself up wondering why. It’ll be especially hard if you still work with her…good luck
@@richardoliver8174 But why did she kissed him?
She obviously likes you and have feelings, but not enough to make her feel secure about taking another step with you. She's ghosting you emotionally which shows she's not ready and she's not very emotionally smart. Try to reach out and ask her that you just want to be clear about it and that she can be chill about it. But I honestly feel that is better to give an end to it. That type of avoidant people tend to hurt to people like you who are sure about their feelings.
Can you make video about when it's better to stay friends not be lovers?
Lots of people don't wanna risk loosing a friend by starting romantic relationship with them. Many times it ruins the friendship if they broke up. So.. how to tell if you will be better as friends only?
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You Love someone when you want to Give from yourself... You Lust after someone... when you want to Take 'from them'...
Good to know the difference when your 'friend' comes onto you😌
I've been suspecting about a friend of mine for some time, but I didn't thought that it was something serious until they asked me If I was single right before asking me out. I was caught off guard, but after that I started to quickly connect the dots. I felt pretty dumb to not noticing before
I watch these despite not having friends nor someone I suspect is into me.
Its just how I roll..
Communication, reciprocation and commitment. If you don’t communicate, you can’t complain. Same goes for those in a romantic relationship. You may start off as a friends, though it’s not the same. You can go forth all you want, though nothing is ever the same once you introduce strong romantic feelings. One must think to themselves before getting involved. “Can I live without ever speaking to this person again?”
As per usual you post these exactly when I need them thank you!
Me too. I think the check out gal at Safeway enjoys me as much as me her. I knew i shoulda complemented her on her new hair color. Lol. Next time. Whats the worst that could happen ...yeah?
@@robolasher worst she says is no, but what comes after that is up in the air
@@Nashi_1981- not sure...lol. Maybe tell her she seems really cool and ask her what her n her family did for the 4th? If she says no family or anything of that matter. Perhaps post suggestion that aww...we should got together. Which woulda been super cool. I know theres an age difference (not bt a lot) but regardless, seems like a really cool human
Thats what attracts me to her, not the looks. And she looks ok. I super, really just like the personality.
Sometimes the best thing to do is to say that you have a crush, so, you know you’re not falling for someone who has no intention of being with you, it’s good though. Truth will set you free!!
All this sign apply to me and my crush, and yes finally he confessed to me! So happy to know that he feels the same way with me

Got friendzoned a couple weeks ago. It was expected anyway I am used to this kind of thing. I regret it
Feel you :/
Never regret the courage you have to express your feelings. Some people live a life full of fear and wondering "what if". But you haven't and you should celebrate That!!! Even if the answer is not what you expected! Yes, It was another rejection and you have all the right to feel sad or frustrated. But that doesn't mean things has to be like this always. Maybe you should look up at why are you feeling attracted to people who tend to reject you? Maybe you are a very sensitive person and you're putting your eyes in people who don't value this? Try to figure out those similar things of people who rejected you and see if you could give yourself a chance to connect with other kind of people. Hugs!

So many videos about love and I still don't have the courage to confess to my crush 💀😭
How awkward when you dont feel the same way about them and dont want to go any further. They can become very bitter if you dont answer the call,and ultimately it begins to ruin friendship.And it becomes all or nothing if you dont want to advance, you would think it was obvious if you've known the person for years and they see signs of love ,when your just trying to be a good friend, but its not enough for them
I’m going through this exact thing, one of my friends likes me and I don’t feel the same way, it does feel very awkward at times haha
When you realize you've been doing all these things subconsciously with someone 😂
Watch out for what they say about people you express romantic/sexual interest in. If they constantly find a way to put down the people you're interested in, that's potentially a big sign they're into you.
Oh my WORD I needed this video so badly and I didn't even know it
Thank you again for your videos! They're so helpful and easy to understand
I remember I missed a fairly obvious hint from a friend in college this past semester. She "accidentally" grazed my arm during a listening assignment (we're both music majors) and I said a quick "oops, sorry 'bout that," and she just giggled. This was halfway through the semester, so she has to have moved on from any of those feelings
And maybe she hasn’t
Bro don't be so sure :D

This content is kind of heartwarming hearing these exact things. I did smiling throughout the video. Thanks!
I married my best friend. ❤️ Finding the courage to tell him I had feelings for him was the best decision I ever made. I would tell anyone who is on the fence about telling their friend that the potential reward is well worth the risk.
how the hell are y'all so in sync with my life, there's been so many things I've been curious abt and your videos pop up on my feed exactly at the right time 😂
Hahahaha honestly same
UNIVERSE!
There you have it guys. The walk to friendzone.
I am incredibly close to my best friend, and match up with most of these, however I would never want to be in a relationship with him. We’re both on the aroace spectrum and every feeling is completely platonic. It’s probably the best type of relationship imo, less strings attached and more freedom
Great now I know none of my friends love me
It feels like important information so I'll call it a win
WHOOOO!!! I SAID IT MANY TIMES AND ILL SAY IT AGAIN….I NEED THIS VIDEO THANK YOU SM!!💓
The fact tha every time i tried didnt work, makes me overthink the situations and not risk anything for it, maybe even giving up on love
ive never had a crush feel like that before. ive always just felt like "i want to be best friends with this person, but more. i could spend the rest of my life with this man because he's a silly goober and he gets me."
So… this is entirely from my Personal experience… me and my childhood crush liked each other… we loved each other like crazy but both of us were too hesitant to open up to each other… both of us didn’t went into any other relationship… just bcuz we wanted to be with each other and each other only… we were soo hesitant to open upto each other regarding our feelings that it took us more than 8years to share our feelings… but finally now … after 8years of waiting for each other to open up, both of us are happily together and are looking for a lovely and happy future of us together ahead… wish us luck 🤞
The more time I spend time on watching Psych2Go, the more clearly I can see my crush doesn't have the mutual feelings as mine... But I still addicted to your videos
I would love it if someone expressed this towards me. I met two people online that both turned out clinically insane, and that's about it.
Thanks for sharing the hints that another human may leave for me. I'll be looking for her...
Take your time... I dated 18 women before I met my wife (of almost 15 years married now😊)... 3 of the 18 women were gold diggers, one other turned out to be a prostitute and suicidal drug junkie (I felt sorry for her but later dumped her when she started scaring me😐)... one of the gold diggers started scheming to "off" my parents... so I would inherit their 'ample assets' I ditched her right away😖... one woman I thought I was in love with and wanted to propose to... had ADHD and was mildly bipolar with lots of personal issues. She needed someone with ALOT of patience... I tried... but she was too far gone and my house of cards collapsed. It became obvious to us both... that I was just "in lust" and not "in love"... that I didn't (and just couldn't) really respect her... so clearly was the wrong person for her. She dumped me and it took me awhile to get over it... but it was definitely the right decision.
The rest were a combination of incompatible or just too much into mind games (especially a cute psychology major I briefly dated... loved to 'try out' what she learned in school on me... made me numb so I ditched her🙄
Yes, take your time... I was 33 when I met my wife (29 at the time) and if I could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing. I'm still as attracted to her today as I was 15 years ago. Her hot, 28 year old half sister has even taken to flirting with me lately (what middle aged guy wouldn't be flattered over that😂) and my main thought on that is... how to let her half sister down 'gently' (if she makes an actual move on me)... you know you married well, when you 'don't want to trade in the old model' (think vintage classic collectable) for that shiny new 'sports car'😂
Just my 2 cents, your life, your adventure... enjoy it! Goes fast...
I honestly think my current and ex relationship started off as friends, my gf is also my best friend. This means a lot to me, and if you’re able to be friends with someone you can be attracted to, then you have the best ground for a healthy relationship
I do take pictures all the time but it doesn't mean I have a romantic interest already
It's really hard to make the call. I had an experience with a girl. We were really close. We were together during the day and speak only during the afternoon through the night. She was one of my best friend in my life and I wanted more. I fell in love with her, so I told her that I have stronger feeling towards her than friendship. She rejected me and not, so slowly this ruined our friendship. We separated not long after I confessed and never saw her again.
Nowadays, I am really cautious to make the move towards a friend. It's the worst. It's worse than just getting rejected from a random girl. If things go bad you are getting hearth broken and lose a friend as well. 😔
Just my 2 cents here... but in that scenario, I'd patiently wait for her to recognize my feelings on her own, and make the first move 'once she's taken the time to process this.'
You probably just caught her 'off guard' and she did a quick, knee jerk reaction. For sure, these are delicate situations...
Noticed 4/6 signs...he is trying hard just to be friends. Because he is afraid of a true relationship and he always denies that there is more.
Not so easy, when they give you all the mentioned points but are in a relationship semself.
They always stare at you in classes or when they see you
Some of these apply to me and this one girl I've known for a long time. But haven't seen her or our circle of friends lately.
1. She would find reasons to sit with me or pull me away. Even when sitting, I noticed my shoulder rubbing hers or her moving closer.
2. This is something I'd probably do. Just us smiling together for a quick snapshot.
5. Yes, even when we met what feels like so long ago, I still get nervous around her. And she'd tell me it's okay. She was the one to make the first move. But we'd have moments where we bump into each other and just laugh it off. Maybe even mirroring. But there was one where we were that close she thought I tried to kiss her but I flirted a bit thinking she tried to kiss me.
6. I didn't really have bad luck in the love department but rumors about having girlfriends when I didn't. But hoping when I do see her after this long, we become closer and I become less nervous.
Have a girl that likes me at minimum as friends possibly beyond summer break right now tho will try in august and see how it goes but considering my luck is pretty clapped I don’t know how it will go
Maybe reach out to her and meet with her if possible? if you like her too, and feel happy around her, don't let it get lost in the hardships and the lack of time :)
My best friend told me she loves me one day ago and I already knew that and could stay calm it was my happiest day :) we are going well for now seeing this video now made me feel happy again
Also keep in mind that one or two of these behaviors being shown may not mean they like you romantically. As i listened, i noticed that my friend has two of these details, he often avoids talk about love, and he often notices little things about me, but i had asked him out before and he said 🙅♂️
It could be personal preference not to talk about love life. And it could be that you spend enough time together to notice small changes.
I also realize that I like him way better as a friend, even if I do notice small changes in appearance and try to hang out a lot.
I will say though, one time my sister was dead asleep and would not pick up her phone, so I had no ride home from school. I called him after drying my tears and asked if he could come get me. He was already at his house but he drove right back to school to come get me and drop me off at home. But it's not like we hang out all the time. We never hang out after school, and rarely talk outside of class. He has his friend group and I leave him to it, but it's nice to have somebody who isn't as afraid of driving as you are 😁
Well, she isn't a crush of mine, but I do deeply care about her. She is a gorgeous human being. We have been friends for like 4 years, and yet, our friendship is still as strong as it was in the beginning. She is definitely my best (and likely only true) friend.
Ah, to think of when both me and my then-crush-now-bf showed these signs to each other.
I do not regret asking him out for Valentines Day in the slightest. Best decision of my life 🥰
Useful but I know some of us are doomed to be alone
I really like that the other character has a different colour scheme. I feel more relative and seen 🧡
(also thank you for your uploads psych2go!)
OMG, you have such a wonderful and clear voice, I instantly fell in love with and subscribed to your channel. Also the video itself was very nice and heartwarming :)
Can you please do a video on how to recover from emotional trauma? It would help me a ton. I won't go into the nifty gritty, but I have moderate depression and severe anxiety, and I'm also a very emotionally sensitive person. I'm a strong empath. I have a hard time saying no. I'll never get mad or blame someone even if it's their fault. These traits have been used against me, and resulted in a nearly successful suicide attempt about a year ago. I still haven't recovered from it. My medications aren't doing much for me anymore and I don't know how to communicate my feelings with my therapist. It would mean the world. Thank you.
Aaah ! That was the best .. " Do you know anyone else who will always b there with you ?.. "
Perfect summary of my situation in terms of having feelings for a friend... Just that in my situation there is no option for a relationship.
And I struggle real hard to deal with that. (The jealousy, and all other feelings attached to that predicament) I guess It would be healthy to limit contact or try to meet other people, but the first one hurts because I value the friendship (or mybe it's just my desire to spend more time with the person) and the second one is hard because I never had luck in finding someone.
The timing of this video is unreal!
I just got home from my new friend's house (watched a movie) and was laying in bed wondering if he wants more than just a friendship....lately, I catch him staring at me with a dreamy smile on his face...he is always there for me and goes out if his way to accommodate me! Hmmmm....tonight he said I looked pretty 🙃 oh boy...
This actually just helped me realize I may like a friend of mind, so thank you ! I can't say I'm happy about it, though ^^;
I had been trying so hard to find someone and kids at school just don't seem to really like me! I only had one friend who really wanted to with me but I'm just a little shy being around friends and just want someone NEW and better than my friend to LOVE!
Thanks for reading this!
Im crushing so hard on a friend rn and made up my mind to ask her out. Problem is she randomly pulled away. Welp there goes my chance
26, lonely as hell. Tried to find true love everywhere. Still seeking....
I’m in an awkward situation where one of my friends likes me romantically but I don’t feel the same way, and I’m not really sure what to do. It gets very awkward at times especially when they’re trying to flirt, etc
"comment below if you know anyone who shows these signs"
Of course I know him. He's me
Kind of sounds like me, but it's over between us now. But I'm still confused at times about how he really felt. There were definitely signs that he had feelings for me too, but something happened and it went downhill. We never dated, but it still really hurt. It honestly kind of felt like a breakup. I still care about him tho...
Tuff me and my friend both had feelings for each other I was just to slow to pick up on hints and when I did she kinda was over it already then we kinda just got awkward
Im actually in that situation atm. It feels like she is giving so much signs but than she does the opposite and 10 minutes later she acting like she never did that shit 10 minutes earlier its just so fucking confusing...
@@jangabel4051 oof, I feel for you. People can be so confusing at times 🤦🏻♀️
Same thing happened to me. It still crushed my heart knowing he changed his mind/chose someone else/didn’t care as much as I did. He taught me what true heartache feels like. 💔💔💔
Likes me or like-likes me....that is the question. She used to work at the bakery I go to a lot, and we chatted and connected so many times. Heck, about a year ago, while I was working on my laptop, I saw her lift her head up in thought, before turning to me and saying, "How was your summer?" It was kind of random, but I appreciated her interest. On her last day (Jan 2023), she said my coffee was on her. One day, I ran into her at the bar. We chatted, and I said something about her bravely coming out of her shell better than me because of her singing karaoke during her first time here. Not long after, when she and her friends were singing again, she gestured me toward them and pointed to the lyrics on the screen. What's funny is I had told her I didn't like being in the spotlight during the said "out of shell" conversation. Not to criticize her encouragement. Just saying it's interesting and I'm wondering about her motive, perspective, and if it could've meant something.
But perhaps not. I'm starting to wonder if she has a boyfriend. I saw her a few nights ago at a different bar. I pretended I didn't see her in the dancing crowd, she noticed me (I think after I accidentally bumped into her), put her hand on my arm to get my attention, and said hi. It was a very brief talk, given the dancing and loudness. So of course, I did not ask for her number or to be my date at the swing dance next month. But it's not just that. She was with a group of friends, and one of them was a guy she talked with. He _could_ have been her boyfriend. What would be the signs (aside from kissing, obviously). I'm curious about the connection (or contradiction) between the potential "she-likes-me" signs and the idea of her having a boyfriend. He's the main reason I didn't ask her anything. Should I, whether it be phone number or swing dance invite?
