Drop hints. It may not seem like he's getting it, but try. As to actually telling him, my advice is the same as the others'. It's a risk, yes, but life is full of them. Whatever happens you're going to come out of this having learned lessons you'll use forever. Good Luck!!

Hun. Love is an amazing thing. I dated my best friend. my advise to you would be to sit him down and tell him how you feel and say that you are scared of ruining the relationship you already have and nothing has to change if he doesnt feel the same. Although having said that, the friendship can never be completely the same again. But hey maybe its a good thing. its a 50, 50 chance although he is a very close friend so i dont think u have anything to worry about. give it a go you bever know...hehe wow that rhymes :p ok hope this helps Xx Jen xX

Yes it is worth it. Firstly, your friendship is already over...you have feelings for each other.
Secondly, what do you think is going to happen in 10 years from now...do you really think you will be best friends then?
All relationships have risks. If you are not ready to take the risks, you are not ready to have relationships.

reader, anonymous, writes (23 May 2007): Hi, I think its worth the risk. I now and have been for nearly 8 months, been dating my friend. Before we started going out, we spent so much time either on the phone or hanging out, just like you. Then, after his bike accident, I knew in that instance that he was more to me than just a friend. He realised this too shortly after and we both agreed it was a big risk as we could potentially ruin our friendship but like DV1 says below, you know each other inside out and it feels right! Nothing really changed after we got together except for the physical and affection side of things. Yeah we do the usual couple things but we still do things like when we were just friends and we still act stupidly / mess around when in each others company! He is several years younger than me and its not easy but when I wake up to him in the mornings when he stay and I look down at him, I just smile and remind myself of how happy we are together and how it was worth it!! So if you feel you wanna be more than just friends, and you think he is worth taking the risk, then go for it! Good Luck Hun x

You will never know it unless you try it.
I guess you should ask him this question.
What does your best friend think about going out with you?
Separate advice to "if we break up then there could be a possibility tht we arnt friends anymore":
Before asking him out you should decide for yourself how much this Friendship is important to you.

It's a huge risk. It's worth it though. A big lesson in relationships that work out is being together with your best friend. You two know each other inside and out, so you're prepared for the little things. I've only been in one relationship with my best friend. She changed during the course of the relationship, and went from being my friend, to being distant and unfaithful. It's important that if you do get together, don't just maintain your relationship as a couple, but also your relationship as friends. As long as you do that, there should be no issue in taking it to the next level. The best way to find out what he feels is to wait for a commercial to come on tv with a model or something on it, and ask him if he thinks a girl is cute. Whatever his answer, ask him what he thinks of you, and if he does, just reach for his hand and see what happens...
