Falling for my Best Friend

Shiv411

Right so here's my problem...

I'm 27, I met this guy just under a year ago who has now become one of my closest friends, when we first met we went on a few dates but nothin too serious, the dating kind of fizzled out but we still chatted everyday by phone, txt or Facebook and still do to this day, we still see eachother and go to the cinema and things like that but only as friends which i have been totally fine with.

We have a really great friendship and can't get enough of eachothers company, but in the past couple of months i find myself thinking about him all the time and have the usual symptoms of falling for someone, we both have been on other dates since we met and both of us get jealous because we have no problem tellin eachother, he tells me all the time how special and gorgeous i am and all that stuff but its drivin me crazy because all i want is him, he's everything i've ever looked for in a bloke but i know now i just chose to ignore what i felt about him for the sake of our friendship

So basically the advice i'm lookin for is, should i tell him how i feel about him and possibly jeopardize our friendship, or keep how i feel to myself??

Please help!!
I'd love to hear both men and womens point of view

hiya i know how you feel i was in a similar situation but he was just my friend there was never anything else to it and i couldnt hold back anymore and i told him how i felt and 10 years later we are still together and married so in my case it worked out i think maybe he could have the same feelings for you but might be afraid to say it in case it changes things and ruins the friendship but it could be the best decision you make

good luck i hope it works out for you whatever you decide to do
