well,, friendship is a friendship, keep it that way\n\nI feel that you do not want your friendship to change, so going out with him "may" change this.  Could you say, we can go out, but as FRIENDS, I do not want anything more/less.  I'd hate to not have you as my friend anymore...

He doesn't understand it, because you apparently allowed it to develop that way.  It is up to you to set the boundaries and to say NO when he tries to cross them.  If he still tries to con you, then he clearly is not capable of a true friendship.  Sometimes you just have to cut your losses.\n\nI made the same mistake for way too many years, and realize that I only have myself to blame - I complained and complained, but never said NO.

start a coversation about things you both like who knows after your talk, you may not like him/her anymore. if you still feel the same way, the best way is just come out and ask for a date. if he/she says no then you just saved yourself some heartache.

The best way is by starting a relationship built on communication.  Tell him how you feel and say that you would really like to go out with him..  You really have nothing to lose!  You want that date and can't have it unless you ask.  If he says no, you can move on and not waste time pining over him.  Good luck.

Have I got an answer for you!!!!  I went thru the exact thing- I kept telling him no no no no NO NO NO NO!  Day after day!!!!  It is just taboo to date your best friends brother!  Finally I said yes just to shut him up!  And we have been married for 22 years now.  Love can be right under your nose and u do not even know it!  Always take a chance on love!  Its well worth it when u win!

Go up to him and, with a smile, a little wink and as little fuss as possible, give him a little note that says "Are you going to ask me out to dinner or not, you son of a b*tch?" \n\nWalk off before he has chance to open and read the note.\n\nThis way, you don't even have to say anything and he'll do all the work. Also, if he rejects you and shows the note to his mates, you'll seem to them to be as cool as you like; avoids the whole humiliation thing.

Ask her best friend. She'll definitely say no, but if she sounds like she's lying, it's a yes.

First, ask yourself why you don't want her to talk to him. \nSecond, ask yourself why you should have the right to ask her not to. \nThird, ask yourself why she would think you should ask her not to. \nFourth, make a choice based on the answers to these questions. \nFifth, figure out what you'll do/where will the relationship go if she doesn't honour your wishes. \nThis will give yourself the answer on what to do.

Depending on how long you've known each other, your best friend might have made the process easier by letting you down easy, instead of just giving you the silent treatment and the cold shoulder (yes, all of those evils in one). To make like you're trying hard to reconcile the friendship, you can take them out for a non-romantic, neutral activity, then talk as you would've talked before the "romantic relationship". If you ever start thinking about them on your own time, and your desired partner obviously has no interest, take it easy. If it won't happen, don't force it to. Doing so could risk your friendship.\n\nSome advice : Don't try to linger on the past, either to yourself, or to your friend. It might turn into an unhealthy obsession, one that if uncontrolled, could also risk your friendship. Remain, cool, calm, and collected.

Say NO. And, if he continues to pressure you, you may need to break it off. He should be satisfied with holding your hand, spending time with you, and building the foundation for a great future together.

It is always your right to say no to anything you don't want to do sexually.  If your partner loves and respects you then they will understand that there are certain boundries to what your willing to try.  If they keep pushing or try to force you to do this or get mad when you set boundries and say no then you should consider finding someone who will treat you better.

Ask her what it is she really hates about him- it might be something you really need to know.  After all, if she is your best friend, she knows you really well.  Have a good think about what she says, because she might really be aware he is wrong for you and would rather go than upset you, so ask while you have the chance, and good luck (you can still text and call, and e-mail???)
