Or, you can just sit there, keep on loving them, feel sad and never know if they might've indeed had mutual feelings for you, and nothing ever happens.
We only have one life, so why not just take some chances? The next time you guys are hanging out and talking, just be like,"____, I have something I want to tell you, and it's been taking me awhile to get up the courage to do so, but I just feel you should. I really like you alot, and I know that if you don't feel the same this might be a little awkward but I really hope we could go back to being best friend cause I'd rather be your best friend then nothing at all."
And if they doesn't feel the same, granted it might be a little weird at first, but just push those awkward feelings away and just talk to him like they're your best friend again and nothing ever happened, and slowly the awkwardness'll slip away, and everything should be able to return back to normal.
But hopefully it won't, because hopefully they'll feel the same for you as you do for them.

Ask them what you asked all of us on advicenators.. word for word, see what your friend has to say. [ Anq3L_xO's advice column | Ask Anq3L_xO A Question ]

What happens if hes always felt the same way and just couldnt tell you? && if you do tell him, he might feel the same. If you keep it all inside, it might really really hurt you in the long run. If you THINK he likes you then i would tell him. If you dont, then maybe just try and move on.
Alin75 answered Saturday September 30 2006, 1:42 pm: Your options are (and I speak from experience):
- Suffer and live with it. It may eventually go away... or it may not.
- Tell them anyway and see what happens. It could ruin the friendship though.
- Cut or limit contact with the person for a while at least. Just to give you time to get over it (it should be at least a couple of months imo)
Those are the options. If you get another girlfriend/boyfriend then it might make things pass easier. However Im not going to lie to you, things are really going to suck for a quite some time irrespective of what you do.
