Is being the best friend a bad thing if i ever want to date her in case she breaks up with him or am i too close to her now that she will feel uncomfortable dating me. I guess what i am asking is, is it possible for best friends to one day become more than friends?

That's probably why she is so willing to open up to you in the first place. She can let her guard down because she doesn't worry about keeping up an attractive image to you at all. And that's because you're a "safe" guy that she'll never be trying to get romantically involved with.

Being a friend is not a bad thing. Liking her isn't, either. But trying to approach anyone who is married, engaged, whatever, is not right. Of course I can understand your feelings for her: you don't get to love someone only if they are not in a relationship, but you need to respect what she has.
You also need to think whether you want the friendship more than you want the love.
