I'm 16 and going to be a junior in high school next fall. I go to a vocational school so I have shop every other week, all day long. I've just started having a crush on my friend who is in my shop. I like him so much, it's crazy. He likes me too. We talk on the phone a lot and I really want a relationship with him but I'm afraid that in the end our relationship won'w work out and we wont talk anymore. I would never ever want that to happen because hes such a great friend. I really have no idea what to do. Please help me out. Thanks in advance.

Now I hate to admit that I am going through the same thing right now. Now what I can tell you is that you need to think to yourself as long as you need, but not too long, you don't want to loose him. Another thing that you need to realize is that if you and him split up, (that is if you get together with him) it will be hard for you two to become friends again. Now that isn't the sure-fire reason not to see him. That is just one reason not to. Anyway, no one can tell you what to do, because this will change your life forever. I hope I helped, and remember, my inbox is always open. Please rate. [ deathwillcome's advice column | Ask deathwillcome A Question ]

If it doesn't work out you could still be frends, even though that doesn't sound good, but it works. Just think positive and always go for what you want because in the end it can help you solve another problem in life.
best wishes

ash_fire07 answered Thursday July 7 2005, 2:08 am: *sigh* yea........i actually really have that same problem all the time, haha. I know exactly what you mean....so...i go for friends with benefits. I know that sounds kinda weird, but it really does work. For some reason whenever ppl officially call themselves "couples" it changes everything. You act differently....talking to each other seems....weirder. Or maybe that's just me, haha. But if you are really crazy about him....just go for it and see what happens! He could turn out to be the love of you life, but if you're having doubts....go for option one =P [ ash_fire07's advice column | Ask ash_fire07 A Question ]
MummuM answered Thursday July 7 2005, 12:35 am: If you both like eachother, try it. Go to the movies, hangout with him, etc. Keep it simple at first, don't rush into things too fast. You shouldn't give up something that could be special, just because you don't know if it'll work out or not. If you like him, you like him. You can't control your feelings. Why not take a risk? That's what life is for. You never know what you could be missing out on until you try. He could be your Mr.Right.
