Should I date my male best friend?

Question - (16 August 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 17 August 2011)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I have known my male best friends for 4 years. In the beginning we had more of a brother/sister type of relationship but I always knew he has some type of feelings for me. He is the only guys that I can be my complete self around and talk to about just anything. We both have had our share of bad relationships but we have always continued to be there for each other. He has confessed his feelings for me twice but I rejected him both times because:I didn't feel the same way about him at the time, I really cherish our friendship and I wasn't really that attracted to him in that way. He understood but I could tell he still had the feelings. So recently I have been spending alot of time with him and we have been going out alot but only as friends. When we go out we really have a good time together and we are both comfortable. So one night after we went out we ended up making out. I couldn't believe we made out but at the same time it was not awkward like I thought it would be. He told me the next day that he wanted something more than something physical from me, a serious relationship and if i give him a chance he would never break my heart. I am starting to develop deeper feelings for him but at the same time he is my best and loyal friend and i'm afraid if things don't work out in a relationship, i am going to lose my best friend. should I still give him a chance?

cinc71 agony auntI think you should give him a chance. I think when it get physical you're not only "friends" anymore it changes. Like you said he knows you the best. Often, great relationships begins slowly and by being friends. It's not fair for either of you to hide your feelings. Good luck!
