    My Best Friend is a guy. We've been best friends for almost four years now, but lately i have felt so much more for him.I wonder sometimes if he likes me. Its hard to tell since we are so close, and do basically everything with each other. I cannot, for the life of me, ask him straight forward b/c i do not want it to affect our friendship, it means more to me then all my other friendships. im also afraid to tell him how i feel, i dont want to get hurt. I'm sure he doesnt, but some of my other friends say he might. I'm so confused!! Please Help Thanks!!

    The only thing you can do is to be honest. Otherwise you will always question it and might be missing out on the chance of a lifetime.

    All I can tell you is that if ya'll were meant to be then ya'll will happen. Love works very mysterious ways but don't get your hopes up though. It could just be a little crush that will blow over soon. Don't get too tied up into it. Worrying about it and thinking about it could mess with your head and will end up questioning yourself. I thought I was in love with my best friend one time but I found out that it was nothing and we ended up hating each ohter but that's because he wasn't a good friend at all. Usually your best friend could be the one for you. Mainly because they know EVERYTHING about you pretty much. Do what your heart tells you and everything will happen for the best. Good Luck.
    God Bless

    You need to tell him. so he knows how you feel and everything is out in the open.

    All of u seem to have the same idea of me telling him..but if i do and it ruins our friendship i will be crushed...but i suppose if it is a strong friendship we can get through it....any ideas on how to go about telling something like that?? ive told guys before but this is my best friend i don't want to weird him out.

    You really do have to tred carefully here. i just learnt myself. i thought i had feeling for one of my best friends that ive known for years. then one drunken night a couple of months ago we slept together. it changed everything. weve been sleepin together secretly ever since and nobody knows. i dont want the guys to know and to be honest i wish it hadnt happened. i miss our friendship and im just not attracted to him anymore so it was all for nothing. and because hes a friend i cant just end it, its more complicated and i think he wants it to be more than sex now.
    so really think, is it worth riskin a good friendship?
    the relationships you have with your friends are so much more important than with guys

    I agree with sherry Lynn. You have to be honest with him. If you can;t ask him a question like that without it affecting the frendship then he isn't truely your friend. I was once told that in the end our best friends are the best match for us.

    ^^ i agree .

    asking him is the best way. this has happen`d to me tons of times before and if he is a really true friend, it won't hurt the friendship. true, it'll be a bit awkward if the answer was no, but it'll get better soon.
