Hello.
I have a best friend who i love as a best friend and nothing more ,but they seem to feel more than that...I've tried to feel the same way to make them happy ,but i change my mind the next day and end up wanting to be friends again...we've only held hands,hugged etc ,but I feel like I'm stuck in a cycle of trying to please them before disappointing them....I wanted to stop being friends with them as they're too much strain ,but they wouldn't let me and I find it hard to say no....I'm know trying to distance myself ,but they're making it difficult and threatening things...
can someone give me advice?

Anyone who threatens you is not your friend on any level. At the very least it's manipulative and immature, at worst it can become dangerous. This person does not want to be mutually supportive with you, they want to use you for their own emotional (or physical) gratification. Distance yourself as far as possible and end any contact with them. This will only get uglier as long as you allow it to continue.
