writes:I've been extremially close with my best friend since Kindergarden. Starting over the summer i started to like her older brother, she knows this, and constantally said that he likes me back. Then i moved away, halfway across the country to be exact. I still talk to my friend and her brother a lot on e-mail. Surprisingly me and her brother are really close, and it's really easy to talk to eachother. The problem is, that he's very quiet and shy. I don't want things to be wierd between us when i go back to visit. But i also feel like i should tell him. He's also 2 years older, which creates another obsticle. What should i do?

Pay your bills late, tell someone you love them early LOL! What a wicked piece of advice, I agree with that! It sounds like you like each other. Take charge and get things done. You dont want regrets in life, good luck!! :)

 Tell him, you've held it in in long enough. What if you keep secret and 10-15 years later he's married,dead,or otherwise moved on. Life is short,pay your bills late,tell people you love them early.

You should tell him you think he is special. Long distance romances at your age almost never work out. This is only my opinion, it's not a huge deal either way, even if it seems to be to you.

 Sure you can tell him how you feel. Chances are by the time you see him things would have settled down anyway. Since you live so far away it honestly does not matter nuch how you feel. I guess you have to ask yourself what you are looking for and hope to get out of this. Unfortuantely long distance relationships as a whole usually don't wok out to well. I wish you all the luck and hope things work out well for you.

 That's not really a big age difference, besides age ain't nothin but a number. I would say that you should let him know how you feel, but Long distance relationships take more than the usual mass amount of effort to sustain. It's hard on both sides of the relationship because you don't get to see each other very often, and that can create the perfect enviroment for infidelity. (not saying either of you would.)You will have to be totally committed to each other if you truly want it to work. Think carefully about it and go with your gut. (and heart and brain)
