Question - (8 June 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 June 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I am a girl and my best friend is a boy. A few years ago me and him never used to get on, we used to hate each other. But it's become in the last few years that we've gotten on so well! I've never really found him strongly attractive, and I still don't but I love his personality, and I think thats what I've fallen for. He is my best friend and i can not imagine not having him in my life. I've never told him I've had feelings for him, but I think I'm in love with him. He says certain things to me like 'oh that girls fit or pretty or beautiful' and I just casually just smile and encourage him to go after her trying to be a good friend and then he got really close to two girls at different times, one a while ago and one recently. I don't know one of the girls, but I do know he did really like her. Now the next girl is a good friend of mine and she is also kind of close to him and they flirt with each other a lot but he said he can't really see it going anywhere. But on the other hand, he flirts with me and he calls me beautiful, and he tells me that he can trust me more than anyone he knows. I seriously don't know what to do, because well me and him just don't suit, like you wouldn't put us together probably! but when were together we have the funniest time together. I can't keep my feelings in, and I just love him so much. I don't want a relationship right now, and I'm not sure that he does either. What do I do to stop feeling my feelings!?? Whenever I'm not with him I miss him. And his sister wrote on my Facebook wall the other week saying 'he talks about you so much, why don't you too just go out already?!' and she always says stuff to me that it would be sweet and everything, as me and his sister are quite good friends. A lot of people think that we like each other but we both just kind of brush it off.. I don't know what to do?!:(

I know what you're going through, and let me tell you, it's not fun. That tugging at your heart when you hear him compliment a girl. The guilt you feel when you tell him to go for other girls when you really want to tell him to go for you. It hurts. But then he tells you you're beautiful and tells you that you're the only person he can really trust and everything in the world feels right. I say you go with your gut. I did it and I haven't regretted it. 3 Opposites attract. They say best friends make the best couples because of that bond that you initially have. And just a little tip: When the siblings start saying more than they should, something's up. :) take a chance and follow your heart, because if not, the "what if's?" will bring you down. Your heart won't let you down 3
