Boy Problems, Suggestions Welcome :)?

I really really like this guy, hes one of my closest friends and I can almost tell him anything :) However I like him as a lot more than friends but the problem is I barley ever see him because he lives a fair bit away from me! :/ I CAN'T tell him I like him, as it would just make it awkward if he doesn't like me back and we don't usually talk about the people we do be with. The problem is I don't no if he likes me back, any suggestions ?

    Tell him.....it is much better that a good friendship turns into a relationship if you both feel the same, however you also take a chance that if it doesn't work out you also lose him as a best friend. You really have to think this one out. No harm in asking how he feels about you or if he has feelings for you in a girlfriend way instead of just a close friend way. If you put it like that and just say you were wondering, I am sure he would be truthful about it then you know....it is where you take it from there that is important. If you decide to go through with being bf and gf, then you have to make sure to make a pact that if you break up for a reason, you can still be friends like you were before. He may feel to weird and not want to to ruin the friendship so keep that in mind as well. Think it through good before you decide what to do and also what would you do if you couldn't talk to him anymore if the relationship turns out bad? You have to ponder that as well. Good Luck I wish you the best. I had a friend that wanted to become more than just friends and I turned him down because I did not want to lose the special relationship we had...like you do and even though he moved eventually, we are still friends to this day. I think for me and my personal self it was the right thing to do but because we were close, he was able to ask me what I thought about becoming a couple. Hope this helps. Good luck and all the very best to you....you have a lot to think about but go ahead and ask outright.

    Hi Tracy, we spend too much time on the what if's in life instead of just going out and living it. The time you are spending wondering if he likes you back could be spend talking to him about your feelings and finding out how he feels about you. the more time you wait in hopes that he will just come out and tell you the more time you give to someone else to slide in and take him if you know what I mean. Just be honest and let the chips fall where they may. Understand that if he doesn't like you the same way you will have 10 more that do. be blessed

    If you don't want to tell him that you like him because it would be awkward,then you shouldn't worry about if he likes you or not.And if you did find out that he likes you,what then? He lives far from you,so why even bother to fall in love or get into a relationship that would be a long distance relationship? I'd just keep him as a friend and find someone close to me.

    Try to give him hints. Tell him you like a guy, but don't tell him who.

    If he likes you, he'll constantly bug you about it.

    Also, I'd joke around about it. Like telling him he's cute when he does something, but don't say it all that often.

    Invite him over sometime. Just the two of you, watch a movie, or his favorite TV show.

    Good luck. [:

    Tell him you like him. If he doesn't like you back, just move forward with your life. You'll never know if he feels the same way unless you try. Your not loosing anything, or hurting anyone. So go for it, and tell him! :) It's worth it trust me.

    The first thing is you've got to do is tell him your feelings go much farther than friends.This is

    probably going to be hard but you can and need to do this.You'll know from what he says back.Good luck.

    You have to tell him how you feel, so you can move on with your life. Maybe he'll like you back, you have nothing to loose.

    show him with your body language that you like him more than friends.

    he might get the hint..

    -longer hugs

    -looking at him sideways for no aparrant reason

    - maybe holding hands? or is that too far...?
