I have a date with my best friend on Saturday....should I tell him how I really feel?

Question

My best friend is a boy.We talk to each other about everything and get along great...as best friends do. But lately he has sort of been..I don't know..laughing and looking at me more.But the thing is that I really really really like him. And it isn't even like it is superficial either, I know he is not the most conventionally attractive person, but I do like him so much I can hardly stand it. But it kills me because he is skipping a year and so is graduating and going to college THIS YEAR. Now, THAT I know I can't stand. But anyway, he asked me out to lunch for my birthday and I am really excited but I am kind of wondering if it will be different than any other time we hang out. And I don't even know if that would be a good or bad thing...because if it is somehow awkward then that could be weird considering we are going to spend all day together anyway because we both work for the same technical director and have a production then...What do I do?

Answer 1

We tend to make relationships akward for one be reason, denial. So be honest, he is a best guy friend, worse case senerio he can't get serious with you, but will be like he always was, a friend about it. Best case, you have a future worth living for. So really its a win, win, realize great people will come in and out of your life all the time, but its on you for failing, by never trying, to keep them in there. If you try, then it can only be HIS fault that a great relationship didn't take off......
