If you’ve ever read my posts before you know I have sort of an issue with bringing sex into my friendships. It usually causes things to end up imploding but I still haven’t learned.
Lately I’ve been going through a pretty dark emotional state. A friend of mine has been so sweet and supportive throughout it. He checks up on me daily, texts me cute stuff throughout the day, and will hang out with me whenever I need company and just talk to me and try to make me feel better. It’s been immensely helpful and I’m so thankful he’s been so sweet. He makes me feel safe, talks to me about anything to distract me, watches cartoons with me, even brushes my hair(!!!)
The past week we’ve been hanging out on a nightly basis and staying up too late just talking and hanging and, lately, cuddling and kissing a little. It started when I asked if he could hold me the other night and he obliged, and we just sat there with my head on his chest while he ran his fingers through my hair and I cried. Eventually I got so wrapped up in my feelings that I started kissing him, and not just light kisses. They were deep, intimate kisses, lots of tongue, and they lasted for a while.
