Buys her gifts and all the crap I could never afford considering I'm a car mechanic with an Associate's Degree. Well, as cliche as this sounds, I've been in love with her since we were 16. We've both had our fair share of relationships in the past but unfortunately, it "seems" like she's getting serious with this guy (although, I've heard they haven't had sex, yet). They've been together for about six months (known each other for seven months) and he and her dad are pretty chummy.I've tried reasoning with her that the guy is way too old (we're 22, he's 55) and he would be in his 70s when their kids graduate high school. The guy has already been married twice before and has five kids (four of whom are YEARS older than my friend); the youngest is in college and funnily enough, taking a couple classes with her! The girl (we'll call her X) doesn't seem too bothered by the fact that her classmate is dating her dad but sees it as more an opportunity to make a friend. I've talked to X about the situation and have given her my opinion on the matter. She basically told me to tell my best friend my feelings for her because she knows the relationship won't last and my best friend will need a shoulder to cry on.Well, frankly, I'm sick of playing the shoulder and most definitely sick of being "just her friend". But, I'm too much of a pussy to speak up. X has told me I got it bad because I melt when my best friend hugs me and shiver when she touches my hand. All this is so corny but it's true. I can't stop thinking about her and lately, when I see her working out, god, I just want to do terribly good things to her! I want to f*ckin' tear her apart in bed! Wow... I sound really creepy. Anyways, advice please! Thanks!

Tell her how you feel, man. It may work, it may not, but you have to ask yourself if you'll regret never having tried, if she just goes and hooks up with this guy (or any other guy?) One way or the other at least you'll have an answer, right?
