If your best friend is a boy, there is more of a chance he feels the same way that not. Guys seem to fall for the girl first. To see if he feels the same way, pay attention to his body language. Does he listen close you what you say? Does he smile a lot around you? Does he casually bring up places to go? Does he sometime seem nervous? Now this last one may not be the case, because if you are best friends then he may be used to being around you, or could be like me and is easily able to put a mask on how he's really feeling. There has to be someone else you both trust and talk to. If so, speak to him/her because there is a good chance that friend would know. Probably came for advice on how to make the next step or something. If there isn't anyone like that, speak to someone he hangs out with sometimes and ask him/her how he feels. If there isn't anyone and you just want to go up to him yourself, then beat around the bush while still bringing the point across. Maybe make a joke on you guys going out or something and see how he reacts. Try to go places with him more like to eat or the movies. You could go as friends, and if he truly enjoys himself he might think of you as someone to date. I hope I helped~

If he feels the same about you, he'll be glad you said something, if he doesn't it makes the situation forever awkward afterward. Imagine what he'd feel just hanging out as friends when you want him to kiss you? Its more often guys get stuck in the 'friend zone' having the crush on the girl and she only sees him as a friend.
So, if you say anything at all, it should come out as a curiousity question rather than as a fact that you are already having strong romance feelings for him and that way, even if he doesnt feel the same as you, you got your information without making him feel awkward. So the way to do this is saying something like: You know, we get along so well as friends that I was just wondering if you think there might be a possibility of us going any further? Do you think we should try to see if we can be more than friends? If he's not interested in you romantically he likely answer, no Theres no chance of that cus I only see you as a friend. Or he might ask why you are asking. Then you could answer: I read somewhere that the happiest most successful couples are ones who are not only are best friends but have the deeper feelings for each other too. So I was curious cus I'd be willing to try if you are.
And that dear, is a way to find out without revealing your feelings or him, his. Less awkward.

I think it could get awkward if he doesn't feel the same. It could also change your entire relationship if he doesn't feel the same. You need to be aware of that before saying anything. If he doesn't feel the same he could back off & you wouldn't want that to happen.

I do agree that it would be best to discuss it with him when you are alone.

Do you have any reason to think he feels the same? I think if it were me I would maybe just be friends and see what happens. I think if you both feel the same it will become obvious sooner or later.

It's only awkward if you make it awkward.

If you really want to tell him, just do it. I think it would be awkward if you told him in front of other people. I'd suggest telling him when it's just you two. And not in front of your friends or his friends.
