IIght this is what you should do. Since he's your best friend, you should be able to tell him comfortably, "I honestly don't think it's there for us right now. We've been friends for so long and I think the best thing for us is to stay friends. I like you a lot and I enjoy our friendship but I really enjoy your company as a friend." or Something like that. He should understand that and accept that but don't let him down hard. Don't mention your ex to him though because your friend might take it to the heart. Try something like that. My homeboy went through something kinda like that recently. I kno wut you mean.

I think you know the answer to your own question. Nowhere in there did you sound at all like you want to. Don't. If it doesn't feel right don't. There is no reason to ruin a relationship. If you don't have feeling for him, then he should understand that. But don't lead him on trying to be nice either. Be upfront but gental. "I'm sorry but I don't have feeling for you that way"
As for your ex, whoever told you you need a boyfriend at all times was lying to you. It is ok to be single once in a while. I mean think about it. You guys broke up for a reason. Why don't you wait till someone comes along that you really like. I'm sure it will happen sooner then you think. Good luck

Trust me the ex thing won't work there is a reason you broke up with him. It was broken. Try being with your friend. You never know how it will go just take things slow and see how it goes. Sometimes best friends last forever.

Interesting. Well, who do you like? You decide whether it's your ex-boyfriend that you like more or is it your best friend?
If you recognize who you like more, spend some time and get into a relationship with him. Obviously, most relationships don't last very well but there are some other chances in the future with more guys.
Good luck.

Avoid them both, if you don't like your friend it is because you probably do not find him/her attractive. If you get into a relationship with him/her it will be too neutral and it will be hard to end the relationship even though you want to. As for you ex, if it didn't work out it probably will not work out again.

Go out with the friend and if he is your best friend and it doesn't work out then you still could be friends. also your ex is your ex for a reason.

If you have to ask the question then as you say "don't go there".
If you really loved him you would know. Maybe you are just feeling flattered that he asked......go with your gut reaction! Good Luck.
