Honestly? It’s an exercise in NO. No, he won’t change his mind. NO, I should not hold out hope. We will just be friends. We will be appropriate. We tried dating but he didn’t see a future. He wants his own kids, which is not an option for me.
NO, when we lie in bed together (a rarity) and I feel his hard on jumping around, barely constrained, we will not act on it. NO, I won’t stare at his lips, wishing. NO, I won’t think how he is perfect for me if only. How have any of you managed to deal with this? I don’t want to stop being a part of my life. He’s been that for over a decade now, and romantically over three. But I have to stop obsessing and hoping. Advice? |
| He needs to not be in your life. You are just torturing yourself. You will not move on if he is present, even on social media. |
| Decide if the pain of walking away by choice will be less than the pain of waiting for him to walk away if you never do. Or if the risk of either is worth the chance at Love reciprocated. |

WTF, OP? Who lies in bed together closely enough to feel someone's "hard on jumping around, barely constrained" -- while just being friends?
I don't understand the situation. Are you just friends, or more? What's the deal? |
| Why are you laying in bed together? The only time I’ve ever seen people do that is college. |
| Sounds like a couple that dated, friend zoned, FWB zoned, (who knows the order sequence) and are now they are entering the final zone, whatever it’s going to be. If OP discussed children, I’m guessing there was something intimate shared between them some point. Platonic or romantic. |
| I want to know more about this hard on that can jump. I’ve seen them twitch a bit, but constantly jumping around? That must be fascinating to watch. |
Yeah, that's quite odd. I also want to hear more about this unusually mobile penis |

| I am married to by best friend. But it took a while. It took some radio silence. |
Get laid. It’s other dicks out here a shot of Serotonin via sex will do you some good. |

| Advice is to go radio silence for a long while so you can focus on finding someone better suited for you. |
LOL |
| I agree with others who said that you need to distance yourself from him. If he is really your friend he will understand. |
