Best friend or lost cause
The story
I can feel my bestie pulling away from me. he's been cold and unresponsive to alot of things and he left on read in a recent text I sent him about wanting to talk to him and sort things out
I just feel so burnt out. I'm on winter break but doesn't feel like a break because my mind can't seem to stop. there is constantly something going on and I'm just so tired of this
my friend and I got really close during the summer, but this semester we made some new friends who always joke about us "getting together" I can laugh the topic off but my friend seemed to take it too personally and that's what he started to pull away for real
we recently made a club in college and that brought a new side to our relationship because we had to be professional at times and I feel like he couldn't handle the balance and sort of cracked under that
it's just that he is an important figure in my life. he helped me grow into a more confident version of myself. he helped me speak up to people and to battle demons I never knew I had.
it hurts to know that, at the end of the day, I won't mean to him as much as he means to me
and I can't help but wonder what if the problem really is the relationship thing? what if we do get together and suddenly all this tension goes away?

yo not sure i feel you here 🤔 relationships got their own vibes 🎢 but jumping into something just cause things are weird ain't always the move 😅 maybe dude's got his own stuff he's dealing with and it's not about being more than friends?
chill out let things smooth over naturally... talking is all good but pushing it might just make him bounce harder 🚀 sometimes you just gotta roll with it and see where things land!
honestly, I think you're kinda overthinking this 😕 dude might just be freaking out over the whole relationship rumors; it's not always that deep he probably needs some space to chill, and that's not about you, it's about him! i've had friends do the same, and it always turned out they just needed to deal with their own stuff don't go jumping to conclusions and messing up a good friendship!!!!! sometimes people joke about stuff and it gets awkward, but it ain't a sign of impending romance you know just let things settle down and see where they go without forcing it
