How can you tell your best guy friend you like him?

Answer 1

My suggestion is you don't tell him your feelings right now, but say something like, "Hey, we've been friends a long time, what do you think about going out on a date like any other couple?" Say it with a smile on your face and don't back him into a corner. Make it sound more like a good idea, then trapping him into not hurting your feelings. This way, he'll either tell you he doesn't think it's such a good idea or he'll go for the idea and you'll have your answer. If you do go out on a date take it slow and easy and let nature takes it's course. If you tell him how you feel right now you might scare him off and make him so uncomfortable it may take away from a wonderful friendship. Good luck Marcy I disagree with the above answer. I think it would be too forward to say something like that to him because it can make him feel as if you've only been thinking about yourself and been in the friendship with the hope of dating him one day. I think instead you should see how intense your friendship is. If you guys are the total "bff" then you have to think about if it is worth it. I mean, if you guys break up...you wouldn't have just lost a boyfriend...you would have also lost your best friend which can be very hard to handle. If you think you can handle that and that the best thing to do is tell him, then make sure you are in a stable part of a relationship like making sure he's not dealing with something big and same for yourself. Once you figure out that everything is okay, then sit down with him one day and tell him how you feel, how long you've liked him, and how much he means to you. But make sure to include how this friendship you guys have also means a lot to you and that you have never let your feelings affect your advice, comments, actions, etc. for him (unless you have). Also make sure to tell him that you are going to give him time to think about it and whatever he decides is cool by you and that you are going to be there for him no matter what. Goodluck. :)

Answer 2

I Started by telling her that I had something to say to her and hope she is not offended. She assured me that she would not and we were alone. I told her the truth and that I found her very attractive and I fell in love with her. The result was we are married for 27 years and counting. If you do not tell her she would not know and that will be a great lost to you. If she does not love you in return, at least you try and you know how you felt about her. good luck!

Answer 3

You probably shouldn't do that to tell you the truth! I told my best friend that's a guy that i loved him and he hasn't talked to me for 10 months! 10 MONTHS!! So if you wanna keep that good friendship going, just keep the emotions inside for a little while longer until you know that he is falling for you.

Answer 4

I actually had to deal with this a while ago. Here's what I learned: If you think you like him, make sure you really do before you do anything. Once you're sure, you need to find a way to approach him. Try starting with something casual and irrelevent until you feel up to it. Also, VERY important that other friends aren't around. Ok. So what you do is, tell him how you feel honestly but don't go all mushy I love you like you've been dating for years. The more you stress the love you alot part the more he's gonna get freaked out so don't take it to far, especially if you've been friends forever.

In the end, even if he doesn't like you, if he's really you're friend you guys can get pass that and besides, he can change his mind. So, bottom line, ask him casually don't stress the mushy and believe in yourself

BTW, trust me from personal experience, the whole ' i love you' thing doesn't work. Believe me. Well, hope that helped, good luck! :)

Just go straight out with him, tell him the truth ASAP!!!!! Get a time to tell him, and break it to him easily. Guys sometimes kinda go in shock if u know what im sayin so just say, "I think I may like you."

Answer 6

go on a 'date' or go somewhere fun with him and just tell him straight you really like him, that's always a good starter :') men aren't that complicated+see how it goes from there?

Answer 7

if you really are in love with him you should be able to just tell him as soon as you see fit, the fact that your best friends should only help your chances

Answer 8

You can tell him that you find him attractive.
