You ever have romantic feelings for someone you knew you would never disclose, because you realized it would never work?

I did when I was a teenager he only thought of me like a sister and I know now it's better he did.
His older brother was married to my sister and his mom and my mom were good friends.
He's been very happy with his wife for many many years now
I really never see him anymore ,but he was always very nice boy and I'm very happy he found the person who could make him happy.

It’s never really occurred to me to disclose romantic feelings for someone unless they made it clear they were interested. And they generally had to work pretty hard to do that. 😂 I don’t remember ever getting so far as to think it wouldn’t work, just had the interest and set it off to the side. More often than not I ended up glad it never went further though. I always saw everything good first and took too long to see the rest.

many years ago. we had alot of chemistry together but, our personalities did tend to clash a good bit, even as friends. i have a feeling anything more would have been a chaotic trainwreck.

@ReptilianFromPlanetCrush I just think we would have never understood each other and be miserable ,although he was a very nice person, we didn't have the same belief system

@Justmeraeagain that would make it challenging for sure.

Yep, twice. And while I know it was the right decision, there remains that remembrance and "what if' thought that creeps in every so often.

Not a regret, just a passing thought of "what if?"

@Ontheroad
Sounds pretty human.

@Justmeraeagain yep, we all are and it's what makes us who we are.
