Girls have you ever tried to be 'just friends' with a guy you're in love with?

say you're in love with a guy friend and you don't know how he feels for you, like you've never discussed your feelings. say you even are together one night and still he acts casual afterwards so you're not dating and he seems to just want to be friends. Are you able to be friends with him or do you have to cut the friendship altogether to 'recover' from him?Girls have you ever tried to be 'just friends' with a guy you're in love with?I ended up trying hard to be just friends for a year and it only made the passion stronger. Turns out she was diggin me anyways and we ended up married.
