Ok...There is this guy that i really like. He's a senior and i'm a freshman. We're pretty good friends. He works for my mom and dad at this store that they own. Yesterday i was at work and he came in and we talked for like 20 min. I was at this fair yesterday and i saw him there and i called his name and he mmediatley started smiling at me at asked how i was and stuff like that. I wanna get to hang out with him more but on the off chance that we do go out i don't wanna mess up our friendship. We can talk to eachother about almost anything. I'm not really worried abou the age difference. Please help me i don't know what to do..

Sometimes guys act different around girls, especially ones they like when they are alone or with their friends. It is hard to interpret someone else's feelings without asking. I have always thought that the best remedy is to tell the person that I like them. If they don't like me back, it might feel a little funny at first, but at least I won't look back and wish that I had said something. Good luck:)
Guys are going to be guys. Some are like that and others are not.
Since you have feelings for your best friend, you should really tell him face to face but if you cannot do this, write him a letter.
Let him know how you feel, and see how he responds. That would also reveal it.
If you think its right then do it but don't walk away, might make him feel like it's a joke, expect an answer. And dont worry mom's are usually very open about this stuff. And from personal experiences, relationships or asking someone out doesn't affect a friendship as much as you think. Anyways, just go for it, there is really no harm in trying, nothing to loose but so much to gain! :)
Ahhh, the love of a best friend romantically. I'll tell you what. Give him the note. Its good to be honest and open with your best freinds, but you will never know untill you try.
If you give it to him, make sure to tell him not to show it to ANYONE. Because if he shows it to someone, he and you both might be made fun of because that's just the way people are today. Be sure to let him know that you'd like a response to the letter, whether it's face to face or in another letter. As for whether it might change your friendship...it could. Just try to make him understand that even if he doesn't like you the same way that there will be no hard feelings. Cause he might feel weird since you are his best friend. I hope things work out for you.
I think that if that is the plan that you want to do...that is exactly what you should do. I think that it lets him know that you like him, but gives him a little time to think about it. I think that things will go great and you will feel a lot better after you give him the letter or however you wish to go about it (face to face, phone or email). I really hope the things go well.

If he likes you the same way you like him, and there is no problem with the age difference(including parents). Then take a chance and ask him out. There is actually nothing to loose.
Good Luck,
