well, I have known this guy since i was 5. I am 14 now and hes about to turn 15 and we've been best friends for a great while now. && he always tells me he cares about me and he wants to do stuff with me and that i should because he actually cares about me and all that. Then he was telling me today that i am the only girl that actually really cares about him and doesnt use him. And he knows i have feelings for him, hes great. But, its like i want to do stuff with him cuz i do care about him but i feel weird doing it. We've kissed a couple times and it felt weird at first then it felt natural. && in all the movies best friends always end up doing stuff and he told that to me which i already knew. And i believe that he truly does care about me, but its the fact that he is my best friend.

The best friends start dating. And, if you just do the whole "friends with benefits" thing, that'll end weird if one of you two ever find yourselves a boyfriend/girlfriend because you two'll obviously not be able to anymore. And just because he cares about you, does mean you SHOULD do this or SHOULD do that, you should do it whenever you feel comfortable and wanting to do it. I understand, too, that'd it'd be really weird doing stuff with your best friend, so just try asking him out. You already know he likes you. And if he says no, then that probably means he just wants a hook-up buddy, which I don't know if you'd really want to be. I hope I helped. <3 [ MelLeDisko's advice column | Ask MelLeDisko A Question ]

However, if you are just going to be 'friends with benifits' it's probably not going to end well. I think if you guys like each other as much as you are putting out, then start dating. That way, it would be different if you did stuff.
