So i've been best friends with this guy since I was about 4. We were next door neighbors and did. EVERYTHING together. We even got married when we were like 5. haha. Anyways, when we were 10 he moved about an hour away, and I didn't see him as much but i still saw him every 2 months or so. THen he moved back and he lives like 5 minutes away. Now we are almost 16 and I see him every few months. My problem is, I've been in love with him since I was like 5 and I really don't know if he feels the same way. We are always flirty and have physical contact. Last summer I almost thought we would be together because we were acting like something was going to happen, and then he flipped out and told me I should workout with him and get in shape. (I'm a little overweight, but not too bad.) He really isn't shallow but it just seems to me like he realized he was starting to like me, and he didn't want to because i was overweight or something!? Anyways, hes also always bragging to me about his "hot girlfriends with abs", and hes not even that hot. He is cute, but not like OMG! But now I really don't know what to do, because i have a boyfriend but all I really want is to be with my best friend, and I'm afraid to put myself out there and ruin our friendship. My mom and my sister are convinced he loves me back, but I really dont know. What do i do!? and how do i tell if he wants me back!? any advice will help. and yes, I know i shouldnt be with my boyfriend if i like my best friend, but I also like my boyfriend....i just really would rather be with my best friend. ah. help me!

ps, sorry if this doesnt make much sense, im typing this in a hurry!!

^ Exactly; that's the only way he will now & the only way you can ease your mind knowing whether or not he feels the same. If he doesn't you haven't lost a friend, you just cleared the air & made things less complicated for you.

Obviously you know him better than we do. So I think you should think about how he will react if you let him know how you feel for him. There has to have been times that it has been awkward for you and your demeanor has changed around him. He might not have meant the comments about your weight and other girls with abs as an insult. Maybe he feels the same way about you as you do about it him, but he is unsure that you feel the same way and doesn't want to make you question your guys' friend. Make sense? Does that sound like something he would do?

TRUEE DATT wesslii snippee...

whooaaaa. my friend is going through the SAME THING. i'll tell you what i told her. you guys need to talk about this because obviously, its eating you up inside. don't be scared that after you guys talk about it, you guys won't be the same. if you guys are really truly best friends, something like this won't come between you. and you don't wanna live thinking the what if's and stuff.

just talk to himmmmmmm. lol.

If you do not know what to do then you are weak.

GG noo ree... OWWNN..

lool... u bietcchezz suu dum... daa boii dunn lykee hurr lyykee datt.. suu sttoppp teelllenn hurr daa gooo talkk 2 da boi..

yeah i know what you all mean. the sucky part is that i dont get to see him that often. we are close enough that even though we dont see each other we still stay the same, and we are still close. i probably just neeed to get over it, because he doesn't like me. i usually only like him when i see him or someone starts talking about him. Like right now i don't even like him, i have a boyfriend. but if i see him ill like him. : /

maybe i just shouldn't be as close to him?

Ugh, he's being such a face telling you to lose weight. D:<
I'd be so pissed at him if I were you.

Sounds like he's trying to make you jealous, bragging about his gf.
I think he's attracted to your personality, but not enough to realize that he likes you. I mean, seriously, what a *insert rude word here* If you still love him, tell him, and if it ruins your friendship, then it wasn't meant to be.

Sounds to me like you deserve someone way better.
