I say you should tell him how you feel, and heaR what HE has to say. Who knows... he may feel the same exact way. Say he does... but he's too shy to tell you, so HE'LL just wait foR YOU to say something about it... but YOU'RE waiting foR HIM to say something... see what I mean? This won't get you guys anywheRe fast, that's foR shoRe! Don't beat aRound the bush, tell him stRaight out to avoid confusion. And if this tip helps.. "best fRiends make best lovers" ;D Goodluck!! Hope I helped!!

If hes your best friend he wont ditch you or anything..


I dont think your relationship will work honestly..
I think you guys would be better has friends... cause if u did date it would just end up being friends in the end anyway

I think you should tell him - before you tell him your feelings - that you want to keep this friendship, and you'd never do anything to ruin it, but that you think you have a bit of a crush on him.
I'm all for speaking your mind. Guys are not psychic, as much as I'm sure we sometimes wish they were...if you wanna tell him, tell 'im. If not, keep it quiet. It may come out anyway. You never know!
I hope this helped.

Tell him how you feel then ask him how he feels about you and if he says just a friend keep it as friends. If he says more or whatever then I guess go out with him. Just make a promise that no matter what, you guys will always be friend or something. Good luck!!

omygosh hun!!!! life is all abou taking risks...but this is a really big risk. Now the thing about dating your freinds is that after your friendship will always be a little wierd. But the relationship you have while you are dating is amazing! and don't worry about him not excepting your love...b/c if he doesn't like you just realize that...you have a GREAT guy friend and that is way better than a boyfreind in the end anyway. So w/e you decide it will work out. But most of all i think that you should follow your heart hun...b/c your heart always tells you what you really want! and i think you want HIM!
hope I helped....*Alina

I think you should just stay friends. I went out with my best friend and lets just say it didnt work out in the long run. We ended up just breaking it and staying friends. But its still not the same. We talk all the time but not like we use to. But thats what happened to me im not saying its going to end up like that for you but i hoped i helped :) !!!!!

all u can do is tell him ur feelings. tell him that even if he doesn't like u back u just want to be his friend.he might be a little shocked so give him a little time but if u guys have been friends for this long i don't think he'll let this stand in the way of ur friendship. and u never kno he might like u back.

I acutally had the same problem at one time...and we acted on it..things didnt work out but it made us closer...but you need to actually sit down and think if this is gonna be "ReAl" or just a lil crush...cuz if so and your scared to lose your friendship with this guy maybe you should wait and just see what he future brings

sunny answered Wednesday August 25 2004, 12:21 pm:
well i think u should stay friends unless u kno he likes u back and if he does u need to make a promise that u will still be friends even if the relationship ends but u might just wanna stay friends with him because a relationship could ruin everything.GOOD LUCK ON UR CHOICE.

Tell him how you feel. whats the worst that can happen? if he doesnt feel the same way then your just embarassed for a few days. If he does feel the same way then great. If you guys do start a relationship there is a chance that you could ruin the friendship but you will eventually be able to be friends again.
I fell in love with my best friend and we were together on and off for 3 years. It ended badly and we ended up not being friends but it was totally worth it. Your friendship will never be the same if the relationship doesnt work out but trust me its worth it cause were friends now !!
Hope i helped :)

I think you should just stay good friends with him.Becouse ive read in magazine that usually those things just make the friendship worse.But if u dont agree you could just talk to him about it.Tell him that whatever happens u dont want the friendship to spoil.Hope this helped.Much <33

Well, lets see, hmm, if you really and truly want to go out with him then I say go for it, but remember that if you guys break up then you probably will lose that friendship that you guys had, so I would be very catious in this situation

xoMarisox answered Wednesday August 25 2004, 10:01 am:
First, see if he acts a little weird around you. Like he does like you. If he acts like that I think he may like you. The one reason is of what you said in your question " if i do, what if he doesnt accept my love? i dont want our friendship to end if our relationship doesnt work out" also, if you do date and you break up, that may end your friend ship. But if you rreally like him and you think he likes you, go for it! Hope I helped! Good luck! Rate me please!

xoxo, Maris

talk to him, tell him how you feel, that's the only advice anyone can give you, just talk to him and let him know everything that you feel how you're scared that your friendship might end and hey maybe he'll love you back. good luck and i hope i helped.
