But im so worried to go any further with him incase it ruins our friendship, and can't go back to how we are now, is it worth risking? he's liked me for a while, and i feel bad for saying no in the past, what could i do? we're both staying on at school and will have the same classes for the next 2 years. please help!

Ok I have a lot of guy friends in fact more than I have girl friends. But I have been in the same postion in you. It's like (okay I love sports so I'm using a game for an example) it's like you are on a coed team. You are left forward and he is right you both back each other up in basketball. So if you have trust and friendship it will be fine. But then he starts having feelings for you. The whole game is affected. If he asks you out and you say yes he might be distracted by you. Or if yoiu break up with him he wouldn't back you up anymore. Because of anger. Ben probably really likes you and it would break his heart if you denied him. But if you do go out with him you might be a great couple. But if and when you break up always ask to be friends. If he really likes you he will still want to be your friend. The same thing has happened to me more than once. So even if you do have the same classes that's good. He will want to talk to you and if u ignore him he will get the hint and ignore you too. Good luck! I've been in the same sit. But everything worked out. So I hope yours does to!
