A friend of mine in his 30s, who is straight and single, has been a crutch for me financially as well as emotionally. We are very comfortable with each other. I always take him for granted but he has been very sincere towards me and consistent. I’ve now started developing feelings for him but he doesn’t know about it. What’s worse he has just shown interest in a girl and he hopes to take the relationship to the next level.
