>be my friend
Wtf dude, you don't ask someone to be your friend, you just do.
He doesn't want to spend time with you, then leave him alone and find other friends. Easy.
But please, don't ask people to be your friends.

Ah you're a girl. Okay, did he at some point have some feelings for you?

>>17816975

I thought we were just close platonic friends, but he may have. I know most guys can't just have a platonic female friend, so maybe

>>17817016
They don't
Those are just friend-zoned cucks
You're hearing it from a serial one

I second this, either you start trying to date this guy, or for his own good stay way.

This could definitely be part of it, but honestly, in my experience, most adult guys just don't really do "friendship" in the same way women do. In school/college it's different, because you're constantly surrounded by young, horny peers, and your social status/activities are going to pretty much dominate your attention no matter what.

As a working adult, a few years post-college - I keep a pretty small, close circle of friends, and we don't "hang out" much more than once a month or so. I don't have long phone/video chats with many people where we just talk for hours, it just doesn't happen.

You're just asking for too much attention, basically. You're asking him to be "one of the girls" and there's just no reason for him to do that. It doesn't sound like he dislikes you, he just doesn't want a close high-maintenance platonic friendship that requires a lot of effort

It sounds like you're being clingy, but in a tongue-in-cheek way, so it isn't really that bad. That being said, he probably just wants to keep some distance from you for some reason. I don't know how often you're texting him, but you should probably just leave him alone

>Best male friend from college
>Be my friend again
>WHY WONT YOU BE MY FRIEND?

I'M SO CONFUSED.

Are you still in college?

Like he was my best guy friend in college, but since we graduated we haven't talked that much. We're still friends, but like poster above said I'm saying "be my friend" half-seriously. But really, we do talk way less. I'm just saying I wish we talked more

We just graduated in May.
