I think I love my best friend, but I still kind of like this other guy. I have no idea if I love him as a close friend or more than just a friend. He has a girlfriend, but I just have no idea on how to tell him how I feel about him without becoming all nervous around him. How do I tell him, without getting butterflies in my stomack?

dear confused teen,
sounds like you have a mad case of your first love. of course you love him as a close friend because friends love each other especially if their close. now, what you must do is be the mature one and tell him that you are starting to feel alittle more for him than friendship. be firm in the conversation, but not overly aggressive. be informative, but do not leave important information out such as i like you, you mean the world to me, i can't see my life without you in it....things of that nature. if all else fails, invite this guy friend over and watch a movie...something that has to do with two friends(a girl and a guy) falling for one another. im sure he'll get the hint. you never know, he's probably feeling the same way about you. and yeah, don't let the girl friend that he has now intimidate you, remember you had him first. i have faith in you. you can do it. tell him.
