Ive known my friend for 3 years now. And we never dated just hanged out but with our circle of friends. Lately when I go home to visit and hangout with our friends. He's there but becoming more like a kiss on the cheek and forhead and would text me to make sure I got home ok. And this past Thanksgiving had dinner with his great aunt and father step mom. But his step sister is like my best friends. And so I don't have any thoughts about it. And small hits here and there. It's been puzzling me. And yea of course he's my friend and I love him. But just tonight he video chat me. And tells me that he's picking me up and that the whole Sunday we are spending it together with his brother. (No one in our circle of friends) and tells me and accidentally shows me my gift...a new bed? I'm just trying to figure things out because I had a lost my late bf and been on some dates here and there but not like this to where someone cares and thinks of me. I'm scared to move forward because something always happens. And I don't want to lose him or our friends. He had a bad break up as well and I don't want to force on the serious relationship part. I rather take my time and slowly keep going forward. Yes I'm scared but I don't want to rush. I guess I need help to know which way to run lol. We do live 6 to 8 hours apart. And never been on a long distance relationship before.
