Now I’m starting maybe, feel something for my friend? Hahah any advice or anything? I mean, I just can’t stop thinking about him, the other day I called him to ask what the homework was when I already knew what it was,....hhhhh.
Advice about what? Figuring out your feelings for your friend? Telling your friend? Trying to get rid of these potential feelings? Life in general? You gotta know what you want before we can help, sorry!
Adrien wrote:So me and my boyfriend have been together for over five months now. We met of a similar interest (aka Voltron because that show is the bomb.com). He probably the best think that has happened to me is such a long time. He helped me get over my last break up (my ex literally wreaked my feelings and made me start feeling like everything was my fault), and he's too nice for his own good (this boy deserves all the love in the world, my poor baby doesn't deserve to be sad). Anyways, the thing is, he lives over 1,800+ miles away.. I mean, he still lives in the states (thankfully), but he's across the country. It also doesn't help that I have extreme trust issues AND my head is always telling me how I'm not good enough and he could easily cheat on my ugly self. So being that I have so many issues, and he have a two hour time zone difference.. it's kinda hard. I love him so much, and I want it to work, but I'm just so bad with my words... He hadn't called each other since December 13th, until today. He called me, we said hi, tried to make conversation, and then went silent. I'd like to mention that we are both very awkward people and very shy... I love hearing his voice, and I just love him so much.. but I'm just so bad with talking because I'm so scared that I'm gonna say the wrong thing, ya know? Does anyone have any advice, please?

Sounds like you've got a lot going on and would benefit in a lot of ways from seeing a therapist. Not only to help work through your trust and self-esteem issues, but also with your social anxiety.
As for being less awkward talking with him, stop trying to treat the conversation like a script. Just... tell each other about your day. Talk about everything you've missed since your last call. It doesn't matter if it's as small as "our class got a hamster" or "okay, it's so silly, but I dropped my pencil at school and was so embarrassed over it, I went red for an hour!" Talk with each other. Get to know each other. Share those mundane details. Maybe one of you wrote Voltron fanfic you haven't shared with each other yet. Read it out loud to each other! Get real time reactions and feedback.
Get out of your head and just... share.
