I really like my best friend. The only problem is that he has a girlfriend. He has been dating her for awhile and really likes her. But he will say things like, "If I ever break up with my girlfriend I'll go out with you." It seems that he is joking but then I'll have some mutal friends saying that we would make a cute couple and that we should go out. He acts like he likes me but i dont know if that is because we are such close friends or what. I want to tell him but I dont want to ruin our friendship and I dont want to break up his relationship. So, should I tell him I like him or should I not say anything? HELP!
