<p>DONT DO IT...oOo crap man that happned to me i liked my best friend and he liked me too soo we kinda were going out but we sort of broke up and after that i had to change my entire friend circle and we cant even talk to each other...real sad I HATE IT...lost boyfriend and best friend we only call eachother about HW real quick when before we would talk for 4 hrs :(</p>
<p>Just do whatever you want really....</p>
<p>before you ask her out you should try to figure out if SHE is interested in you. does she talk about other guys around you? has she gone out with anyone else? does it ever seem like she's trying to make you jealous? is she attracted to guys who are similar to you? if she's asking you for advice about guy troubles she probably sees you as just a friend. same as if shes like asking you for fashion advice.</p>
<p>um since she's a really good friend you should be really really cautious especially since you see her so much and have a lot to lose. maybe you could get a mutual friend to ask her if she likes you, like kind of indirectly when you're not there. like tease her about how you guys should be a couple and see if she blushes or if she bashfully denies it or if she angrily/disgustedly denies it. then have the friend report back. if its favorable then go for it.</p>
<p>once you start dating, if you do date, don't rush it so you're not left with uncomfortable feelings if things go sour.</p>
<p>First off, if she really is as great a friend as you say she is, and if she wasn't interested in pursuing a relationahip in that regard, then I'm sure she would not make a horrible deal over it. At that point you would just have to move past it. On the other hand though, she might say yes, which, as many others have said, would make the both of you very happy. I know what you are going through, and if it weren't for some other eternally significant factors, I would take the jump myself.<br>
Go for it!</p>
<p>Do it. I was in a similar situation as you. I had a really good girl friend whom I wasn't "in love" with, but did have feelings as more than a friend. I wanted to be something more with her for months, but never had the courage to do it, and even had girlfriends while her and i were just friend. However, one day near the end of one of my relationship with another girl, I was with the girl I liked, talking to her about how I was distressed, etc. and knew that my relationship with the other girl was over. As cliche as this sounds, right as I was complaining to her, we kissed. Neither her nor I know who did it first, it was sort of mutual, but it happened.</p>
<p>That was in September. Her and I broke up a couple weeks ago, the third time we had done so since September. However since we've broken up before and gotten back together, I'm hopeful that we'll get back again. Trust me when I say this, but being in a relationship with your best friend (or in my case, very close to it) is the most amazing thing you can experience. It really is too much for words, but if it works out half as well as mine has, it'll be amazing. Words really can't describe it. </p>
<p>It really is a chance, a big one, but one you have to take. You can gain as much as you lose. You can forever change your life in a good way or bad. The only thing left to decide is if your want of her as more than a friend is greater than your fear of losing her as a friend.</p>
<p>Be a man, man :)</p>
<p>Asking her out and her rejecting you doesn't necessarily make relationships awkward. Even if it does, then what the hell? You are young and there will be thousands of friends and girls ;)
Beside, real friendship between girl and guy doesn't look too realistic to me.</p>
<p>Well, here's the problem. We were just casually talking about the subject the other day (I didn't bring myself into the subject) and admitted that she doesn't wanto to go out with anymore guys because of her experience with her last boyfriend. So, is there anyway I could change this?</p>
<p>anyone, please?</p>
<p>Don't rush things. She only says she doesn't want to date because her last boyfriend probably broke her trust. Just have fun, flirt, and make sure she trusts you before you do anything. If you ask her out before she regains trust in a guy, you may end up losing something that could have made you happy had you waited.</p>
<p>maybe that's her way of telling you she's not interested in you if shes saying she wants to take a break</p>
<p>anyway id forget about it if i were you if shes known you so long and nothings ever happened she probably just sees you as a friend</p>
<p>what is this love you speak of?</p>
<p>My D has 2 very close friends that are guys. They has been there for her all through hs until this year. She broke up with her bf and they both started acting strange. ONe of them obviously has had a huge crush for a very long time and I am, pretty sure the other one also did. Like I daid once her and her bf broke up they acted wierd. Another guy from school was around her alot in school and her two friends were jealous. They were besides themselves and things just have never been the same. A friendship that was rock solid has desolved into nothing. She has tried talking to them both and one told her "Its just too many things to talk about right now" and the other one claims she ditched him and hes hurt. Sometimes I think guys just put these friends up on a pedastal and can't act on their feelings. I think at one time my D did have a crush on one of them but never acted on it. She never wanted to lose eother as a friend but has actually lost them both and neither will tell her why.</p>
<p>Are you sure you actually like her? One of my best friends thought he liked me, but then realised that he just cared a lot because we talked a lot, and we were close friends.</p>
<p>i miss that feeling of having crushes and stuff</p>
<p>btw, you should go for it. nothing beats love.. someone great once said </p>
<p>"it is better to have loved and lost then never to have loved at all"</p>
<p>I was in the same predicament 6 months ago. I found out that my best friend liked me, and we talked about it, and decided to start dating. We would not have decided to go out unless we we were both pretty sure that this wasn't going to be a 3 week relationship. </p>
<p>So we started going out, much to the surprise of one of our friends, while others said they saw it coming from a mile away. We've been going out for six months now, so while that isn't THAT long of a time, its decent.</p>
<p>I think you should see if she has feelings for you first and then only go out if you think its going to be a somewhat long relationship. No point in risking a good friendship for a fling. It sounds like you really like her though. I say if you don't ask her, you'll never know, so go for it!</p>
<p>Wow...I was in the same situation, so it's not just in the movies.</p>
<p>Go for it...it'll get so much worse when she starts dating someone else...the arguments...the subconscious jealous..aghh...if you get rejected, laugh it off and go back to the status quo. It's better then anything.</p>
<p>Ive got this new guy i like hes not a friend but ive been making a mental note all weekend to bring a extra calculator for our math final tommorow b/c theres a 98% chance he will forget his..(he always asks me for mine thats how I know and since i cannot share mine during the test...i will give him one of the extras lying around the house...hes sweet when he asks for it...ive just gotten used to handing mine over at least 5 times a day) he has a calculator just doesnt remember his i think hes purposely doing it b/c we always joke around about it..</p>
<p>^ Yeah, he definitely likes you. Why else would he want to use YOUR calculator?</p>
<p>^LOL.... 10 char</p>
