Sometimes, it is good to risk it. If this person rejects you but cannot accept your feelings, then they are not a friend to be had.

Tell them.
If they don't return your feelings, your friendship will still go back to normal
Best of luck ST!

I used to think the same thing too, back when I was "just friends" with my best friend. Now we've been together almost a year and we're still going strong. I know it can be scary taking a chance on something like that, risking the loss of something you already love for something that might not even happen, but know this: sometimes the other person is thinking the exact same thoughts, and by not saying anything you could be denying both of you a wonderful opportunity for a happy relationship. Just something to keep in mind.

Well ST I feel for my bestfriend too. Hopelessly head over heels in love, I felt like I was suffocating when he was gone, and couldn't stop smiling when he was there. He had a girlfriend thought of a year and a half on and off. He was the first person I trusted and the only person who made me feel okay. After a year I briefly got over him and fell for him again. He got over his ex and we decided to give us a try. We've been happy for two months and counting. Never give up hope ST :)

For Gods sake, please do it. My best friend confessed she liked me about a year ago, and only then I had the courage to make clear I'd been in love with her ever since I knew her.

You should so just tell them. If they're a good friend they will deal with it, and maybe more will happen (:

My boyfriend was my bestfriend for a while before we started dating, I think it makes a relationship better, so if you are brave enough, maybe telling them would turn into something wonderful? :)
Good luck with whatever you choose to do ST!!

My own advice would be, if you're a teen, to wait until after high school. High school can put such a strain on relationships. Unless you've really been best friends for...basically forever. Otherwise, just let them know! Most people who really care about you won't be offended that you have strong feelings.

i ended up losing a friend because we never dated :( we were great friends and we both liked each other( i only know that because he confessed to my mom that he liked me but didnt wanna ask me out in fear it would ruin our friendship) i think we both got frustrated and along the lines we just stopped talking (the harder part is his sister is dating my uncle so we still see each other from time to time) people assume that dating will ruin friendships but it doesnt always ruin them sometimes it makes them stronger.... as for worry about if you guys break up.... dont worry after a while two lovers can be friends again... im friends with all my ex's accept 1 but thats over a whole nother issue entirely.... if you really like them then try pushing things a little further.... slowly of course... but dont be too worried about losing them... if they're a true friend they will stay friends even if it ends

What *RemiroQuai said. My boyfriend (while trying to hook me up with someone else) admitted that he would've asked me out long before, even though he knew my main interest was in the other person and I at least wanted to find out where I and the other person stood before getting with anyone else, and so had no idea whether I had any feelings for him, no matter how small. We'd had a policy of being completely open about ourselves and our pasts and being non-judgemental of the other person beforehand, so it wasn't something that weighed on my mind. Around a month later, nature took its course and we wound up together.

Not using this as a soapbox to talk about myself, just as an example - do you have openness with each other? Do neither of you judge the other? Do you always actively try to understand each other when you don't? That way, you know you won't ruin it just by talking about it.

If it's breaking up in the future you're worried about, then give it time. If you know there are some massive life changes coming up that will last for extended periods of time (I'm talking university for 3+ years, moving far away etc) then it may not be the most wise thing unless you have a few years to go before that. Otherwise, keep your cool. Constantly worrying about breaking up - or things that could lead to a break-up - is an aggravating factor in itself. You create problems that aren't there or intensify ones that are small or won't come around for a long time. Your partner will pick up on this and become worried themselves. You might have an adverse attitude change, and so on. Just a few pointers,
