i am going through the exact same thing. like word for word.
give it a try he likes you and from the sound of it you kinda like him too.
just make sure before you get together,you make sure to tell him that your friendship comes first, then the boy/girl friend stuff.
me and my best friend flirt with each other constantly and he loves to tickle me because he's the only one that knows exactly where i'm the most ticklish.
you and your best friend sound like you are good together.

I have been in this situation. If you like him, then go for it! But if not, explain that you want to remain friends, but you will always leave the situation open to talk about. I ended up going out with him, and I still am! I had another best friend that I went out with, and we broke up. But we're still best friends! So I hope it turns out okay.

Tell him what you just asked our advice on. Tell him you like him, you think he's great. You're just afraid that if you guys get into a relationship and break up that you won't have what you once did.

It's not totally impossible though. I went out with one of my best friends and when we broke up we were still best friends, nothing really had changed other than the fact we were slightly intimate with eachother.

the most important thing to keep in mind in this situation is your age. yes, that sounds stupid, but it is soooo important. when i was 13, one of my best friends asked me out (i had known for a little it was coming, so considered what i should do. i loved him so much, in a friend-way, and he meant so much to me. yet!! i have seen what happens to the best friends around me that went out then became enemies after they broke up!!! i mean, i would have loved to go out with him... but i was so young, and whne you go out with someone at such a young age like 13... you are soooo bound to breakup and lose an awesome friendship. man i sound like dr. phil or sumthing.... ignore the cheesiness of this whole response. laugh out loud (yeah, they block the abbreviation of that... go figure...)) and when he asked me out i said no. i, personally, set my own priorities in an order that suits me. for all i know,you could really be into that whole dating at a young age thing, or you coudl be like 17... whatever. i just decided to let you know what i did in that situation... i really hope you make the rite decision for yourself. my guy, adam, and i became better friends after i said "no, im really sorry adam.. but i love you, just not in the boyfriend way, and i love you enough to knwo i dont want to lose our kick-ass friendship if we would breakup..." i knew our breakup would have been inevitable... and he is such a great guy. i may have hurt him a little, but it all came out for the better

Hey,
Follow your heart.. If you break up with him and he doesn't wanna stay friends that just means that he wasn't a true friend to start off with.

Good Luck,
Advicegodesses2

P.S.Write back and tell me how my advice was and if it helped.

sizzlinmandolin answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 5:05 pm:
My advice to you is to say no. I believe that you should always say no to see if the guy really cares about you. He might get sad for awhile, but it shouldn't affect your friendship. If he ends up asking you again or heavily implies it then it's probably not about peer pressure or anything like that for him, it's about you and how much he cares. Just like a lot of people I've been in this situation before...and I'm presently in a happy relationship with my best friend. A relationship with a best friend can work or not work just like any other relationship. Whatever you decide to do good luck!

Dakmor answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 4:37 pm:
=( Same thing here, but I'm in the guy's situation. I guess that means I should tell you from a guy's point of view... this is one of those things that doesn't have to do with the nether regions that I don't know how to answer from the girl's point of view =P

Well, long story short, I like her a LOT, and she's afraid to like me. Yes, I was upset when she told me the truth. I was depressed for days. But I'm past that now. Sure, I'm constantly thinking about her and everything reminds me of her. But I get along in life. Besides, it might make him feel worse if you just say you like him out of sympathy... I'd say you should give him the truth... if you're too shy, do what I did to tell her how I felt: write an e-mail! That way you can check what you said, and you don't need to do it face to face... and if you need to you can start crying without him knowing... love and rejection and from what I understand rejectING are very tough, and you need to get all your emotions out... so I reccomend crying... but don't push yourself... hope I helped, good luck!

cheddar answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 4:37 pm:
explain all of that to him. let him down easy, and then you guys can get back to your friendship. it might be hard on him, though, to be around you and just be friends when he wants more. just try to explain how you feel but take into consideration what he says. say that you'd love to keep being best friends with him, but you're worried that you might not be friends again if you guys break up. :) hope i helped.

Mercy_x_Me answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 4:37 pm:
yeah I've been in this situation before. Twice. First time, I just went with the flow and went out with the kid. And the second time, I lingered knowing my past experience. Take my advice...as much as your friends are gunna say "Just go out with him already..." sometimes they dont know shit. No offense, but seriously, it's not their lives so their not going to think about the guilt, emotional problems, or remorse that goes along with relationships like these. I could write this answer fairy-tale perfect style but that would be a waste of your time and mine. The truth is, if you wanna remain that friendship let him know, especially when he asks you out. It's actually a COMPLIMENT not a letdown to him because it's saying that you dont want to lose him.
