On the converse, I tried to take a relationship with a close friend to the next level.
It did not go well and we do not talk anymore

losing a friend trying to break the volcel oath
Yeah see, even if I was deeply interested in a romantic relationship with that person, I’d never take it to the next level and stay within boundaries out of fear of not losing them.
Is that conceited?
Nah, it just seems like a defense mechanism I guess. As @red_stapler@hexbear.net, we learned our lessons.
Wish I had thought like you did at the time. Oh well. Maybe in another life.
Were you initially attracted romantically from the beginning?
I was, they knew it.
Did you secretly like them or did you admit it? And did they secretly know or only know after you admitted it?
I don't know if they knew before I told them, but I did explicitly tell them.
