I likemy bff's brother and have for a while now. I just told her a week ago, it was nice to let it out. She obviously said, omgggg, and all that. She doesn't really care, we're still bffs, we never really talk about it and if we do we just laugh. I know he at least likes me as a friend, he says hi in the hallways and jokes with me. We relate about a lot of stuff and my bff always says, you get along better with him than me! Well, one time on the bus home, before she knew i liked him, we were talking. She was telling me about how they bonded last night (they hate each other most of the time though) and they told eachother who they liked. She said a long time ago they promised to never tell anyone who they said they liked, and they never broke the promise. So we joked and I said, I know you said your cell phone, and we laughed because she loves her cell. I do know who she really likes though. And so I said, and I know your brother said his xbox 360, cause he plays it so much. She laughed a little, but just said no, actually... and she never finished! That was before she knew I liked him. Well, she's obviously bound by her promise and wouldn't tell me if he did like me or not if I asked. But I really think if he did like me, she might say something. But maybe not, you know, sibling bonds. He definately acts like he likes me most of the time, at least as a friend. So what do you think?

He may be the greatest guy in the world, but what happens if you break up? It will cause tension on your relationship with you bff. Blood is thicker then water, one reason she never disclosed to you what her brother said. Unless you are prepared to possibly ruin one of your greatest friendships, I would keep things on a platonic level. If you can't have the cake, it's at least better if you can smell it, right?
