alrighty, so there's this guy i like. we are friends and we talk all the time. we get along really well and we have so much in common. the thing is though, i think he still likes her ex-girlfriend. i have no idea why, because she is really mean to him and always acts like she doesn't care. i don't get what he sees in her. for example, everytime i'm with him and his ex-girlfriend, he is constantly apologizing to her and doesn't seem to realize how mean she is. how can i make him realize how much i care about him ? i was thinking of telling him that i like him, but i'm afraid he won't feel the same way and we wouldn't be as close. how should i deal with this ? thnx.

Have you tried talking to this guy about how his ex-girlfriend acts? Sometimes, when people like someone, they're blind to their flaws. Either that, or he could be in denial.
If you do decide to talk to him about it, you could try starting the conversation with something like this, "_________ (guy's name), you don't deserve to be treated the way that your ex treats you."
You could even throw in something like, "I care about you, and it hurts me to see her treat you that way." That could be one subtle way to let him know you care.
Make sure you two are alone. It could get kind of awkward if there are a bunch of other people around.
Other ways to let him know you care? Flirt, in a subtle way. Laugh at all of his jokes, look him in the eyes when you talk, look genuinely interested in what he's saying... the possibilities are endless. Be a good friend to him.
As for telling him how you feel, that's up to you. Go with your gut and do what YOU think is right. It's hard for me to say if you should or not because I don't know you or this boy.
