I don't know how to go about this so I'll just ask it straight forward; how can I ask my best friend to be my first kiss without it being weird?

Here is some background to help you answer, we are both bi and now out and accept each others sexuallity. He is currently in an open relationship, I am and always have been single. He knows I have a crush on him, and doesn't seem to care and will occasionally flirt with me. We've been best friends for over a decade and are very close and comfortable with each other. We've never done anything romantic besides holding hands in an amusement park and hugging each other when ever we see each other.

So my question again is: How do I ask without sounding odd and what do you think he might answer?

Dionee' agony auntIt wouldn't be wise to kiss this close friend of yours.

As you've said, you've had a crush on him for a while. If you kiss him, you will probably develop stronger feelings and as you've said yourself, he doesn't really seem to care that you like him.

Kiss someone else or wait to share your kiss with a person who will appreciate you and love to be in a relationship with you because your friend clearly doesn't intend on being with you and seems to be playing with your feelings by occasionally flirting with you.

Rather wait for someone else to come along

janniepeg agony auntGiven your background, I would tell him I am curious about what a kiss feels like, no pressure or anything. Some people give a lot of importance to the first kiss, like it has to be in a proper relationship while others don't care because most first relationships end in a heart break anyway. If you are worried when your feelings get involved and it ruins the friendship it is better to do it with a lesser known friend that you both know who's gay. At the same time having a crush for 10 years sucks so if that happens to mess up the friendship it happens. Before considering a kiss with him, is it impossible to find someone else to kiss, even a girl?
