i have a friend who i really seriously think i love.i've never felt quite this way about any other guy before.he's my best friend and he says he doesnt like me that way but sometimes it seems like he does.we flirt and talk all the time and he's always there for me.i just dont understand.he got hurt really bad because some girl broke his heart.this happened about a year or so ago and he never sees her anymore because she goes to another school.i think he's just afraid of going out with me because he doesnt want us to have something happen and break up and then never be the same friends we were before we started going out.im not sure tho.please help me out with what i should do.thank u.

But if he does like you and is afraid that it will ruin your friendship, take it slow, so you figure out if the relationship will work out or not, so then it doesn't ruin your friendship...good luck w/ him!

I've seen this with my friends constantly and just in general. You never date your bestfriends. Because, you never know if something does go badly (which, you can't say won't happen) and you do "break up" and say that you guys will still be friends. It usually happens that you never talk to one another.
Now, maybe you and your friend might have a special bond, and you doubt that that will happen. But I will suggest that you talk to him... as a friend that you do have "feelings" and you just want his imput on the matter.
GOODLUCK LOVELY!
Let me know how everything works out! :)
If you have any more questions or need follow up advice, please by all means feel free to ask me.

Halfpint answered Thursday June 9 2005, 11:23 pm: I had a few friends I felt that way about. One friend I had been friends with since kindergarten. After graduating we became more than friends. It ruined everything! We haven't spoke in 14 yrs. I had another friend that I'd been best friends with for almost 7 yrs. We dated for 2 months haven't spoke in 10 yrs. If you have a friend that you feel that close to, keep it that way. Good friends like that are hard to find. Boyfriends come and go.. true friends will not go any where. Hope I've been of help
