OR do i just see him as my best friend, because i cant tell. i get excited to see him and im also anxious to talk to him. but sometimes i ignore him too. i dont know, i just wanted to hear your guys opinions. any stories of your own experiences? =)

it could go either way, you could like him or he could just be your best friend. ultimately i think hormones play a big part in this one. I have definitely at one point fallen for almost all of my best guy friends, somehow. my personal opinion; i think you might kinda like him. but i could be totally wrong.

hey, well i think that its right in the middle of a crush and a liking. just hangout with him more and decide. if you cant picture your life without him, then i bet its a crush [=.

When you mentioned the part about how you ignored him it tells me that you definitely don't have strong feelings for him so it must be that you only like him as a best friend.There was this guy who had a chance with me but, he was afraid to lose me,when he wanted something more than friends it was too late because he let a lot of time past by,I lost my feelings for him,a long time ago that I decided to move on,and he regretted it a whole lot,I couldn't forgive him for all that time wasted you know that's pretty sad.

Well. You have to ask yourself a series of questions. Can I see myself as his girlfriend? Can I see myself kissing him? Can I see us together in a year? Things like that. Pay a lot of attention to how you react to him. You could just have what I call a "mini-crush" on him. Where, you kind of like him and his attention he gives you, but you don't really want to date him or anything. There's a big difference between a crush and Liking someone, in my opinion. When you like someone, you want to date them. Now, my advice? Don't date him unless you have extremely strong feelings for the guy(that you are sure of) that you just can't get rid of. Because- Your friend ship will never, ever be the same after you guys date. So if this is something that's just a passing thing, then ignore it, because it's not worth it.

In my experience- It's not worth it. I've done it, as well as one of my close girl friends has done it. Ruined friendships over it.

Try to ignore or downplay your feelings for him for awhile. If they don't go away, they could be more serious, but chances are they will. Try to focus on a different guy. If you're able to do that, you will know that your feelings weren't 'real' for you best friend!

Best of luck to you! Keep me posted =)

You may just be excited to see and talk to him because hes your friend and you enjoy seeing your friend. I've have guy friends who are just friends who i enjoy but dont like on a romantic basis. if you like him you would know because you would be thinking of him then more just a friend or hed be giving you feelings of a crush. If you decide you do like him then talk to him about it but be prepared for rejection or a breakup and accept it.its not impossible to stay friends after going out if your truly friends i dated a friend for 2 wks and it was terribble and we broke up but now we've been best friends (meaning just plain friends nothing romantic or sexual)ever since.

I will just give you something from my own experience:

The fastest way to lose a friend is to date them.

Why? When you break up with them, your feelings are never the same towards one another and it can seriously damage a friendship. I lost my best friend by dating him. :(
