I've been thinking about a guy for 7 months. How do I tell him I like him without breaking our friendship?

It's not actually very difficult. When you have any conversation, talk to him about girls he likes and the ones he would like to flirt with. I'm sure he'll come back with the same or a similar question directed to you. Just casually, mention his name and say that you find him attractive. You can find how he feels about it that way. If he doesn't ask you that [and he's not mentioned you in the list], you could always put him the question : "Well, don't you like to go out with me?" That'll get you your response.

So you know each other for 2 years..I think it a quite a bit of time in which you might have known each other.\n\nIt is very natural that best buddies often think of next higher level.You also told that he openly confessed he likes you.Now make sure that you also have the same feeling before you go ahead because you said 'I think I like my friend'. Make sure that "I think I like my friend" becomes "I like my friend".\n\nIt is wonderful to be in relationship with someone you know for a long time.\n\nAll the best!

in other words..you like him. yall are best friends. your scared if you tell him he wont be friends anymore...\n\nThe only way you'll ever know what he'll say is too tell him...or have a friend tell if you don't feel confident enough. But guys admire you more if you tell them to their face. The best thing that will happen is you will hook up. The worst is you will lose a friend. Your call...

There's no easy way to do this.  But I'd try to keep two things in mind:\n\nFirst, you're under no obligation to like someone just because they like you.  \n\nSecond, you are under an obligation to be honest, direct, and kind.  \n\nAs a guy who spent a lot of his teenage years getting turned down for dates, I'd say the way to go is to be polite, direct, and firm.  Don't express revulsion, or hold out false hope.  Just say "I'm sorry.  I don't feel the same way about you that you do about me, and I don't want to go out with you."  There's no need to be mean, but at the same time don't be apologetic about your feelings.  Don't tell him "maybe later", don't tell him it's because you're seeing other guys, don't tell him you can just be friends.  Break the news to him calmly, politely, and then -- this is really important -- LEAVE.\n\nLeaving is very important.  Guys have a nearly infinite capacity for self-delusion.  If you tell him "no" and then hang out with him, he might convince himself "Oh, she's just saying that, but really she likes me!  That's why she's spending time with me!"  Believe it or not, the kindest thing you can do for this guy after you break the news is to get out of his life and stay away from him for a while.  That will help him get over you more quickly.\n\nGood luck

Tell him.  That is the best way.  If you are nice and don't tell him, it could be misinterpreted that you like them and are shy.

you should tell him and ask him if he want's to still be your friend. You can say "Hey you know I like you but it's just that I don't want to have a relationship with you. Maybe we can still be friends"

Just tell him how it is ..you can start out with I like you as a friend but I don't love you and can't see us together anymore......\n~Good Luck~

Maybe the chemistry is not right?  Maybe this guy whom you thought you might like is really not for you?\n\nOr maybe he comes on too strong by planning what you two will do for the next month.\n\nFrom what you write, he seems like a nice guy - but if the chemistry is not there for you, then you should tell him that you don't feel the same way towards him as he does towards you so hopefully he will be your friend.\n\nGood Luck!

Maybe try firstly to be his friend? it might not be the right thing to just go right in with 'i like you'... sometimes being friends with someone first can be a nice way to break the ice and confirm that you like the person.

well you might want to start talking to them if you arnt there friend but dont jump in to flirting cauz it will make it obviouis. then once u no them enough juss b like who u crushing on or interested in? then if he says noone y say o i no someone who might b interested.. then kidof hint but not so much he noes. have a friend tell him the next day. if you guys are friends write him a note you think of him more than a friend.

Don't tell him anything!  Most likely what you're feelinig for him right now is just a result of being lonely. If you really liked him you would have been extatic when he asked you out two years ago.  Don't ruin a good thing.  Just work on trying to like someone else, because most likely it won't work out and things will never be the same.\nI've made the mistake of trying to date a guy friend twice, and both times it turned out horribly and we aren't nearly as close now.  Don't make the same mistake!

The best thing you can do is be honest. tell him that he's a really good guy but not your type. Say ''is it OK if we can still be friends''? If he Say's no just say you understand and move on. It's not like it's the end of the world or anything.

I'm a guy and have been on the opposite side of this situation a lot.  Here's what you want to do:\n\nBe good friends with him with no expectations.\n\nDuring this time, do everything you can to "play" like you're not attracted to him at all.  Here are some things that will make him begin to think of you as more than a friend:\n\n1) Ask for his help on things.  Men love being needed.\n\n2) Once in a blue moon, let him know a way that you admire who he is and what he does\n\n3) Keep up your appearance\n\n\nThat's it.  Let him initiate everything else.  If he does, he does.  If he doesn't, he doesn't.

Be good friends. Yes, it sounds corny but its the only way (if you dont have the guts to go in front of him and say "Hey! I like you. Go out with me?") to get an idea as to if he likes you or not.. Then, based on the situation, you can get to know if he likes you or not.. Maybe he starts liking you on the journey on friendship.. ending in love?\nWARNING: NEVER EVER tell him that you like him.. Things are bound to get worse.. NOT better! It happened with me, so beware!!!

Well if this guys likes you a lot, it's tough. There's no easy way to go about it, but the best thing is to be honest and let him know how you feel about him. If you tell him he probably wont want to be your friend because he'll be hurt so don't expect him to be cool about it. Just be honest and if you'll be friends it'll be up to him if he can accept you as such.

Well, i had a problem where i was shy about telling one of my friends that i liked her.  You should try to just be like normal and just chill if you want to with him.  If all gos well, you can either choose just to hang out with him longer or choose to tell him about your feelings for him.
