Am I wrong to feel kind of hurt? I have a male best friend who I met when I was in a relationship. My partner at the time had met him and knew about everything and it was strictly platonic. He would often tell me I was his best friend and so I thought I had a beautiful, solid friendship. Fast forward about a year and I’m now going through a painful break up and single. I reached out to this friend as I really needed support and we met up for my birthday, for a few drinks to take my mind off it What happened next is that he told me he’d always had feelings for me and tried to kiss me, which I rejected. He apologised but it’s left me in a weird headspace because for one, I am going through a rough time with the break up and didn’t really need that, and the most painful reason was that I thought he was my friend but turns out the whole time there were romantic feelings on his side and I feel lied to. I don’t know if it’s in my best interest to cut this friendship off, any advice?
