I like my best friend how do I tell him?

Question

I've liked him for 9 years

Answer 1

okay. hard stuff. first off don't just go and tell him. ease into a romantic relationship. touch him a little more than you usually do, but if he gets a lil weirded out, back off. just be careful not to come on to strongly or you'll scare him away.
dinner "dates", late night walks, that sort of thing will help

Answer 2

Here is what i can tell you. If you tell him you like him and he says no, you still have friendship. If you two have been friends for this long and you two have been close enough that you could develop a liking for him, he's probably on the same wavelength. But to answer the question directly.

Get him alone and talk to him, tell him how you feel and how you have felt and what he means to you in your life. AND BY ALL MEANS!!! NEVER! SAY!!!!!!! You've been like a brother! that is the worst thing you can say to a guy, had that happen.

Answer 3

9 years is a very long time... go on and tell him. Just respect yourself...it must be hard to be close to him, and be with him in every girl he likes... do it for you. Maybe if u tell him 1. he may feel the same way for you, but have the same question. 2. if he doesnt feel anything for you, maybe after telling him, you'll be able to stop thinking him this way....

Answer 4

And you waited for Yahoo Answers to tell you what you needed to do ???!!!!!
You will need to think of the most romantic way to propose, perhaps on his Birthday or something very special.
The idea is to make him feel special. You can also go with tradition.
I went down on my knees when I proposed my first serious girlfriend. She still remembers that!!
I think a decade together in love must teach you a thing or two about what he likes and what really turns him on.
Moreover Hollywood is filled with instances.
Hence you can find tips on the silver screen too.

Answer 5

If he is your best friend it shouldn't be too difficult. Just tell him the way you feel and if he feels the same way I am sure things would go from there, if not, because you are best friends you both should be able to move on.

Answer 6

Just tell him honey, that how my fiance and I got hoOKed up! I was like I like you, but I need to know how you feel about me. (This was in high school when it was ok to say stuff like that). I told him I wanted to know how flirty I could be on my vacation, so that way I wouldn't hurt his feelings. We had already gone out on a few dates, but I wanted to know if they were dates or just a friend thing to him. He let me know then and there that he didn't want anyone else to have me but him. (Like I said this was High School) We have been together for 6 years, so I guess I did something right!

Answer 7

do u have a feeling that he likes u too? if u do just tell him straight out...i had a guy friend who i've liked for so long but didnt say a thing to him now he is married. so tell him how u feel before its too late...

Answer 8

The best way is just to tell him that, but it's the hardest way... You can try to ask him "what would he think if..." or try to write him a letter... Then you wouldn't have to like him in the eyes and have time to think over the words...
i know it's hard, but good luck :)

Answer 9

Whoa! 9 years? I would have told him already!
