Titch asks :
Hi Lucy,
I have been friends with a guy for a few years and the other night while I was chilling out at his, he kissed me and then walked away apologizing. I'm now not sure what this means in terms on our friendship.

Hi Titch,
This sounds very confusing for you after seeing him as a friend for so long.
This doesn’t have to get out of hand if you don’t want it to. It could be that he was swept up in the moment and wanted to kiss you. He perhaps cast aside all his thoughts of you being friends and simply went with this gut instinct.
He might have had feelings for you for some time and hoped that the kiss might answer whether you feel the same and wanted to kiss him back.
Do you want to be with him? Either way you should probably talk to one another about what happened and what it meant. If you aren’t compatible as a couple then perhaps talk about giving him some space to get over you or make it clear that he is never to kiss you again as it confuses things. If there is something more to this, then talk about how you can maintain a relationship without jeopardising your friendship.
If you don’t bring the subject up it will be like having an elephant in the room and your friendship might suffer as a consequence.
