My friendship with Eyram is one for the books. We have been friends for over 14 years now. Through thick and thin, the good and the bad. Through the best relationships and the bad ones. I have seen her through it all.
About three months ago, the status of our relationship changed when she came to me with a rather surprising confession.
“I have been in love with you for a very long time. I thought it would go away, but it is still here. I enter relationships, I hope for the best, but at the end of the day, when I close my eyes, it is you I see. I want us to date and see where it goes.”

I was taken aback. Nowhere in our friendship did she show any signs that she liked me. I mean, they say when girls like you, they leave trails around to show you. Eyram didn’t. So how come this?
I asked her to give me some time to think this through and see if I wanted to pursue it, the proposal. She waited patiently and called back two weeks later for an answer.
We have been together for two months now, and throughout our relationship, we have both done the things expected of us to keep the relationship going.
Just yesterday, she mentioned something, and that is why I am here. “Do you see me as a friend? Or are you just not attracted to me?”
I was still lost until she mentioned that ever since we started dating, we have never talked about sex, neither have I ever tried to kiss her before.
I cannot bring myself to kiss her, let alone have any sexual encounter with her. I can’t see her in that light. I mean, sometimes you just can’t cross the line with people, no matter what.
I only told her that my intention is to just take things slowly, but I know it was just a formality, and sooner or later, she will start demanding those things.
So I am here. What should I do?
Is There A Man Out There Who Doesn’t Cheat?
The truth is, I only agreed to date her because I didn’t want her to feel embarrassed or hurt. I know it must have taken a lot of guts for her to do what she did.
