In love with best friend... what do I do?
I've known my best friend for a long time now, but it's only in the past year or so that I've realized my feelings for him (we're both 18.) We get along so great and the chemistry between us is amazing. Sometimes, I think that there is a possibility that he actually reciprocates my feelings. But even if that is the case (which is rather unlikely) I doubt it’s a line he’d be willing to cross given how close we are. Anyway, just recently he has gotten quite serious with a girl... and it's basically killing me. He comes to me often for advice and talks tons about her. I try my hardest to listen and advise appropriately but it’s becoming harder and harder to deal with it. When I’m around him I act quite cold and distant, simply because I think it’s easier to deal with this way. And frankly, it hurts too much to be around him, especially with him gushing about his new girlfriend. Our relationship has more or less suffered, and we don’t get on like we used to. I feel guilty like I’m punishing him for a crime he hasn’t committed, and I feel as though I should put myself out there and disregard my feelings for the sake of our friendship. But everytime I do I end up twice as devastated. He’s probably really confused as to my erratic behaviour; one mood one minute and another mood the next. But I just don’t know how to act around him because either way, I’m the one who ends up hurt.
What do yarl think I should do? (Thanks in advance for any advice!)

go up to him and be upfront and honest about it. tell him how you feel and ask him how he feels, if he feels the same well congrats if he doesnt then... theres always someone out there for you.. have you ever thought how many guys are out there in this world of ours???
