To be torpe or not be torpe?

Should I risk my friendship and not be torpe with a guy I like or should I be torpe and just play it safe? Super scared of losing a close friend.

Life is short. Go on a date. Make sure to enjoy it. Be authentic and just go with the flow. See how it goes. If it was a good experience for you, express it. You’ve done your part to get the most out of life through that date, if the guy can’t relate, it isn’t time.
