I want to be more than friends . . .
So I've been best friends with this guy for over a year, we both like eachother but we haven't really done anything about it. He always likes these other girls, too and they end up not talking to him anymore because their not intrested. He hates it when the girls stop talking to him completly, and it seems like girls always break his heart. He comes to me when he feels bad about it because I'm the only girl he trusts. I always joke around and say "I'll be your girlfriend" (But really, I'm not joking and he knows it) and he says "I wish". If he wishes, why wont he just ask me out? I want to be with him so bad, What should I do?
Thanks.

Ask him out. Or just talk to him about it, tell him that you're serious when you say that you'd date him. He's probably afraid of asking you out for fear of the possibility that you really are just kidding when you say it.
Even when it's obvious that you like someone, if they're close to you it makes it harder for them to do anything, because of the possibility of that slim chance that you didn't mean it 'that' way.

He probably doesn't ask you out because of the same reason you don't ask him out! When you've liked someone for a long time there's a lot at risk if you take it further. Even more so when you're best friends.
They say that the best relationships work out because they started off as friends. Personally, I believe this is true because you can't have a more solid foundation to build a relationship on than a good honest friendship.
Well....I think that if you really like this guy and you want to take it further, now is the time to do something about it, since I don't think he's going to after all the times he has been hurt by other girls. Whether you choose to just sit down and talk to him about it (tell him you have feelings for him - you could say 'someone' rather than him - who is a close friend but you're worried it might hurt the friendship and what should you do? Then see what he says. Or just come straight out with it and tell him you like him and would he go out with you.) or whether you feel brave enough to move straight in for the kill and kiss him is entirely up to you but based on what you have said, I think you will find him receptive.

you should tell him that you like him and you wont hurt him and stop talking to him like everyone else who broke his heart
