Falling in situationship with my friend

Once upon a time in a land where friendships were as sturdy as a stubborn pimple from period hormones, I found myself falling into the perilous depths of a "situationship" with none other than my Friend.. A very close friend infact.

It all started innocently enough. We would text every day as we would, sipping on our usual concoctions of pepsi and snacking on whatever we would find to go along with it and our constant witty banter. But little did we know that fate had a twisted sense of humor in store for us.

As we engaged in our usual antics - arguing about the superiority of davido and Wizkid and debating whether too much soda can kill us (spoiler alert: i don’t think it can), something changed in the air. His laugh seemed softer, his smile more captivating than ever before or maybe it was just me.

One evening, while we were engaged in our usual banter and texts, Somehow we started texting about 18+ rated stuff. It started off as funny and we were tossing ideas and fantasies around and then suddenly it struck me. I burst into laughter, but something else lingered beneath the surface - an unspoken connection that made my heart flutter like an anxious teenage butterfly.

Days turned into weeks, and soon we found ourselves sharing secret glances and stolen moments. Our conversations delved deeper than ever before, touching upon more fantasies, wet dreams, sexual fears, and even embarrassing bedroom memories. We gradually started to pass the boundaries that were set or rather the boundaries were fading.In other words, the line between friendship and romance began to blur like paint dropped on wet canvas. Were we just friends exploring uncharted emotional territory or were we diving headfirst into the treacherous sea of love or is it lust i would call it?

Navigating this uncharted terrain was no easy feat. We stumbled through awkward encounters at gatherings that we had with mutual friends, where well-meaning friends would nudge us saying "When are you two getting into relationship as we were both single?" Our faces would turn as red as cherries while we exchanged knowing glances.

We were conscious of the sexual tension and we had noticed the sparks flying between us too, and we couldn’t resist teasing ourselves. He would make sly comments about my body and my looks, leaving me blushing like tomatoes.

Yet, amidst the sexual tension and the blurring of lines, we remained friends at heart. We laughed together, cried together, and even accidentally wore matching outfits on more than one occasion (we swear it was unintentional).

In the end, we realized that the beauty of our friendship was not in trying to define it or fit it into a box labeled "situationship" or "romance." It was in cherishing the bond we shared - one that could withstand both laughter and tears, inside jokes and heartfelt conversations.

So here we are, two very friends who are dancing on the precipice of something more. And though our paths may have diverged from that uncertain road, our friendship remains as strong as ever. After all, who needs romance when you have a super amazing friend who knows you better than anyone else? And what’s better than an amazing friend and an even amazing lover in the same breath?

And so, with a random day of sexual texts forever etched in our memories and laughter and teasing echoing through the years, we continue this beautiful journey called friendship – side by side, hand in hand... or rather, hand in high-five.. with no idea where we would end up.. would we eventually reach the point where we are in love? And we finally cross that point or will we remain as friends that tease and tether on the boundary.
