Hey I need some advice from you guys, you guys are really good at detecting BS >_<.

My Capricorn friend has come back, he contacted me through my MSN saying he has a new cell number and that I should call him sometime.

So one day I just text him a "Whats up" and we started talking again, acting like we didn't cut eachother off and today he asks if I have missed him and I just shrug and say "Yeah of course your my buddy". I tell him I am about to leave at the end of July and he's all sentimental and saying stuff like "I've missed you, I wanted to talk to you again before you go".

I feel wierd because I really did not think I would see or talk to him again, I mean Capricorns are really permenant people on major decisions.

I know he recently had a break up and I usually am the first person my friends come to when they need to talk to but with him it just feels awkward. I told him "You left why are you coming back"..he said "I never left, I was always here for you as a friend but you seemed so stressed about school and everything I left you alone".

I really don't know if we should be friends again because it just seems so strange now, I mean we were super close buddies before the cut off but now I just..I am not sure..

Also he's a Capricorn Sun/Scorpio Moon/Leo Rising, he has this way of dominating everything like today's conversation and after he said "I've missed you.." and all that jazz and I told him I did miss him as a buddy but I really don't know and he just said "I am not ******* lying" all sternly and everything. He does this everytime something does not seem to be working in his favor..>_>;

I guess there is more to this than seems. All I read is:

You were really good friends. You parted, maybe due to your schoolwork, which he recognised. Now he is back, gives you his new number (I guess meaning he wants to keep in contact) and you are wondering whether to continue with the friendship?

Righteo.

You shrug (meaning I dont know) and then say:
"Yeah of course your my buddy" to the question of whether you miss him.

Obviously, whether you state it or not, you are unsure about him. That speaks volumes.

Just wondering what the use is of all this, when it seems you are pretty unsure. Or rather, sure about being unsure.

Not sure about the bs detector needed.

Leo rising with Sun in Capricorn tells me the guy can be very outgoing and fun when you meet him, yet a little more serious when really getting to know. On the possible downside, more of a pessimist.

I am unsure if he really wants to be friends again or he just needs someone to be there to fill that hole his ex created..how can I put this,..I don't want be someone's backburner.

Thanks Coffee for the response, your right I am very unsure, I need to think about it.

Are you in love with him/partly in love with him/lusting for him/suffering from a giant crush on him?

Because to me (Leo Sun, Cap Rising), if you are platonic friends and it's not about all that, it seems totally understandable to drift away from each other and then drift back. Especially if one person or the other has a new boyfriend/girlfriend.

Hanging out with someone to fill a void after a breakup, when you may have neglected them a little while you were happily exploring a new love, is totally acceptible and not BS--sure, it's better to treat your friends with care and respect throughout, but I am very forgiving of friends who get wrapped up with a love interest and then want to spend more time with me afterwards.

It sounds like you're leaving out a ton of backstory. Otherwise the scenario you've laid out doesn't make that much sense. Why would he want to hang out with you if he didn't really want to hang out with you? And, what is platonic friendship besides really wanting to hang out with that person?

Did you guys date or something? It seems that way because otherwise I don't think you'd be investing so much time in deciding whether or not he's "for real" when he says he wants to be your friend. Did he hurt you at all?

Yikes, I talked to my Capricorn friend today to clear things up. I relise I was being paranoid.

Lucia and Amowls, we did sort of have feelings for eachother but he felt I never took his feelings seriously so he wanted to remain friends, then some girl had a crush on him and he told me and I told him that I was happy for him and right then there he ended the friendship, he didn't say why back in Feb. but I figured it was because our friendship was getting complicated but I was kind of hurt because he talked to everyone else in our social group but avoided me..I thought maybe he hated me..

I talked to him on the phone today and he said he ended the friendship because he thought it was right at the time, also he said I have some growing up to do and I need to find myself and concetrate on my education (he's 19 and I am 17)but that he wants to be there for me as a friend and to know that I have support back at home.

I have decided he's right about my education, that it is the most important thing right now and I can't be persuing relationships >_< but I do want to continue my friendship with him though I am not going to sell myself short in college..

I want to meet new people and have new experiences and he said he understands and wishes the best for me.

So I freaked out for nothing lol but thanks guys.

Oh, now I understand better, Cheshire Kat. It sounds like a relationship with a lot of sexual/romantic tension, actually, more than like a platonic friendship. Hope it all turns out the way you want it to.
