I am 16 years old and I think I'm in love with my best guy friend. Its not as easy as asking him out and getting a yes or no answer. I enjoy his company and always think to myself well what if but I never do anything about it I do and don't want to tell him how I feel because many people have hurt me in the past for secrets and the truth I don't want it to happen again. When I'm around him I have this feeling inside that's hard to explain but I don't know whether I love his or because he is such a good mate I just care about him. Please help as I'm extremely confused :/ xx

You sound like you are in a pretty hard spot... I think you should just talk one on one with him and just ask him if he has ever had feeling that are stronger than just friends... if he says no then it isn't meant to me but if he says yes then just keep talking about it and asking questions:)

And if you don't want to do that you can always just run up and kiss him and if he freaks out just be like "It was a dare" Lol! :)

Maybe you could have one of your friends go up to him and say something like, "heyy I haven't seen you in awhile..soooo, who do you like?" ;)
Start trying to spend more alone time with him and hopefully he'll realize (or tell you) that he feels the same way about you than you do for him)
Good luck!

Liking your best friend is complicated and will complicate things. If you really like him tell him, maybe he feels the same, but you'll have to be ready to throw your friendship away. If you two don't work out, it's going to be near impossible to have the same friendship you share now, on the other hand, you two could be great together. Those are some of the risks you take in life for love.
