Let's imagine that you have feelings for your best friend. Would you act on them or just let them go?

If I were single I'd act on them; some things only come along once. But I suppose I have to let them go this time, because if I don't then I'll drive myself mad, as my heart tends to follow its own path. My best friend is who he is for a reason, and I wouldn't trade his friendship for anything in the world. I'm blessed to know him at all :)

Let him know how you feel.... He may not realize you have those kind of feelings for him.  But you need to realize that if you start to actually date him, you may lose him as your best friend if you break up.  Will that be worth it?

You think your friend is going to leave you for the guy.\nb

well if she dont believe you then  give her a rose.\n but also think of it this way would if you and her took it to the next level, and it didnt work out. how would your friendship be then? would it be ruined? thats scary but i think i would rather be a best friend and love her as a best  friend then, how do you know maybe she is the  the right one and if she is then it  will happen, thats how love begins frindship first then, then it grows into more so know matter what it sounds to me like its on the right track!!!!!

AHAAAAAAAAAAAAAN to be very honest with people are making sense in their own way but if you think you dont love your best friend then you dont but since you said your confussed now that tells me right away you do since you know from six years and your always talking about him to this guy who you suppose to be dating so if i would be you i wont let get to my head but yes i would think about it a little plus just wait time will tell everyone and everything so good luck.

If this person is your best friend, then chances are he already knows, and maybe feels a little of the same. it's natural between the sexes.\nDo you want to tell him because you need to nkow if he feels the same? What do you do if he doesn't, and if he does feel something, where do you go from there?? Downhill usually.\nIf there was a strong enough chemistry and bond between you to sustain a lasting relationship, then you both would have had it from the beginning, and gone way past "best friend" status.\nGood luck

Sorry, there's no way to do it without hurting their feelings.  Plus, you don't like them enough to continue the friendship, so why are you worried about their feelings?  I mean, I know that sounds harsh, but it's true, isn't it?  This person must have done or said something you don't like or that you found offensive.  Bottom line:  If that person has hurt your feelings in the past, why spare theirs?  Good luck.

not unless you think it will work between the two of you. if you care and he's your friend wouldn't you feel awful for leading him on and hurting him? maybe you just think of him like a brother or something.

If your best friend is really your best friend, she wouldn't take him away. I had a friend like that once and it killed me to be around her with guys because I would say I liked someone and then she would instantly like them too. And she would win because I would just give in. There is no point in fighting her on it, especially if she already knows how you feel about him. If she doesn't know, you need to tell her right away. You friend has betrayed you in the most hurtful way if she knows how you feel. You need to sit her down and explain that you like this guy more than she'll ever know and that you have known and liked him longer than she ever will. If she is truly your friend, she will cease to try to steal him away. If she won't stop, you need to find a new friend, a person who won't betray you. And you need to tell the guy. He deserves to make the choice with his true feelings. Tell him that you don't want things to change between you too, so if he doesn't feel the same way, to just forget that you said it, but in time you fell in love with your best  friend and you wonder if he feels the same way about you. Then, you are letting him know how you feel, even if he doesn't feel the same way.

Ok if she is your best friend I would tell her and she would understand if she was a true best friend oh not to be rude you should kinda re-read things befor sumiting them...  -K-

I would, if that's how I really felt. I would just say, you know I still really like you. It's werid but that's how it is. And he'll understand. I wouldn't be scared because if he diden't want to talk, at least we weren't best friend, we just talked on the phone.

If it's your best friend, then you owe it to them to do what is right.  An intimate relationship with someone close will change your relationship, maybe for the better, but maybe for the worse.  Are you willing to risk your friendship?

if they are your best friends in the first place, why would you be avoiding them.  if you want some time alone you should feel able to express that to them and if they are truely best friends, they should understand your feelings, if not get new friends...

Allow her to live and learn. As hard as it may be for you to see your best friend in a relationship with a guy of whom has happened to break a lot of girls hearts, you need to accept her decision of being in this relationship. We all want to protect our friends or anyone that we care about, from being in hurtful situations but we can’t always protect them. There are times as painful as it may be, that we have to allow them to make mistakes, to go into a situation head-first and simply be there for them to pick up the pieces, if and when it ends badly. As Octavia Butler once said, “Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny, and a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it’s all over”.

Best friends are tricky...  You don't want to risk losing the relationship you have, but will never stop asking "What if?" unless you go forward.  If you feel, being honest to yourself, that you have those feelings towards him...  go for it.  There is a chance that it won't work, but there is ALWAYS that chance in any new relationship.  On the other hand, there's a chance that you may have the most incredibly romantic relationship of your life and regret not doing something earlier.  It is so worth the risk.

well if they like your best friend first... if your friend knows it then leave the situation alone becuase you dont wnat any drama, second... if this person knows you like them but arent giving you enought to go with they are playing games with your head. third... never go after someone who dosent want you initially becuasr they can be getting close to you but thinking about your frined! or stay close to you until they can get your friend.  think about it this can go several ways
