In love with your best friend?
Well I don't usually post my personal shit here, but I'm all drunk and I gotta say I'm fuckin stupid for one of my best friends. I'm a fool for this girl and I don't know what to do about it. We chill all the time n have always been really close and I know she just doesn't look at me that way - what the fuck do? it sucks...

i'm in that situation, but we actually dated a year ago (she went back to the ex before me, long ass story).........kind of hooked up over the summer while she was with him. and she has been very torn. but at the end of the summer she said she couldn't be with me. i helped her throug alot of stuff and me and her are close. it's just a fucked up situation. but it's alot more complicated then that.
and yea it blows so much.

Try, its up to you, if you don't, it will bug the hell outta you. But there will be other close female friends, and you might fall for them too. I found one in college, we got together after she graduated, and we've been together since! I plan to propose some day.

Here's what you say:
"Have you ever thought about us getting together?"
Now setup is important so you can be talking about bad or previous relationships. You can also play it off as you're just kidding around if she slams the idea, but dont give in so easy, keep pushing it with her in a semi joking manner

You know, i thought i was in love with my best friend when i was growing up. But i never acted on it. Till this day we are still friends and I have no desire to be with her at all.
Sorta glad i didnt try to ruin the friendship by acting on my feelings.

Been there, ruined that relationship but got some decent play. After the friendship was ixnayed i could suddenly see clearly why everyone else hated her...I would call it a good move

Think long and hard and be absolutely certain that you want to take the relationship to another level, make sure it isn't a passing crush. Having a quick fling is quite likely to damage the friendship - you could be better off having a fling with someone else you like just as much, and not losing your friend.

Hmm...it's kinda complicated because we've been good friends for a few years now, but sort of on n off. I've definitely had chances with her before, but never really acted on anything. Lately I just can't stop thinkin bout her and it pisses me off I really don't want to fall for any girl right now - I just can't help it though.

to all those people who just read that and say i'm whipped, i'm deffinitly not, she has been through alot. i've been hanging and chilling with other girls, kind of been on and off with another girl. she knew that, but she also always known i want her to be my girl.

bro just hang in there. i say talk to her about it and see how she feels about it, but don't let on to much at first how much you like her, just feel her out and kind of hint at it and if she wants to know more she'll persue it, and if she doens't want to know anymore then she probably doesn't have the same feelings. it's a sticky situation. good luck

Then in college, another girl I'd recently met seemed to be into me, then she started talking about some other guy that she liked. I almost wrote her off too, but just waited to see how it played out. 14 years later (12 yrs married), we're still together and going strong.

damn that sucks it's happened to the best of us..
my rule is that if you meet a girl, start getting close to her, and within one month don't see any action in any form at all, drop it. she treats you as a friend.
best thing to do is to either tell her your true feelings or back off a lil, don't be too close to her for a while and later on continue the friendship. that's what i did and now we are closer than ever but i lost those kind of feelings for her.

"Window of Opportunity"
It closed long ago if she's already your "best friend". At least the window of opportunity where it's more easily done and with no risk of losing someone you enjoy spending time with.
But really...a guy...particularly a 19 year old guy doesn't need to have a girl as a "best freind" anyway. So she confides in you that some random a-hole she knobbed didn;t call her the next day and you play wet nurse? Fuck that...make your play and it's either win-win.

Who knows, maybe she's thinking the exact same thing that you were thinking i.e. I love him so much blah blah blah but he only wants to be friends with me booo hooo hoo, I might get hurted.
RAWARR???
The first part of that sentence cracked me up for some reason.

Happened to me twice. I couldn't take just being friends and needed to know if I could take it to the next level. Crashed and burned the first time, she didn't feel the same way as I did and the relationship was never the same afterward.
The second one, I married.

I would say if she's you're best friend, then that ship may have sailed. If she is a good friend and you really feel that way about her, then go for it.
I have dated a couple girls that I started out as just friends with. I think 4. One I will never talk to again. EVER. One, we just lost touch and I have no desire to talk to again. One, I talk to every now and then. She moved, so it's not easy to keep in touch. The last one I call wifey.
You never know until you try. I say, don't try anything without talking to her first.
