On the 4th time I liked my best friend- it was Valentine's Day 2006. I told her and it wasn't the best ending. She told me that I needed to "get over" her. It was horrible! We didn't talk for 3 months. Thankfully- we're still friends.. but I have no idea how we are.. haha.
Anyway- the way I see it.. you can do two things:
1.) Tell your friend you like him.
2.) Don't tell your friend you like him.
Option 1 is what I think you should do. Yeah- he may have seemed embarrassed and nervous- but maybe it was because he likes you the same way! You never know.. this could be your chance to have the best relationship of your life [at least at this point].
Option 2 is the safe way to go.. yeah.. you will stay friends- but you won't know what could have happened. You won't know if you could have had a great relationship with him.
Love takes risks. If you aren't willing to take the risk- you may never get into a relationship. Take the chance and tell him. I think its your best bet.
