I think he should tell her how he really feels for her. Otherwise, he's going to be miserable. there's no telling how she feels for him if he won't come clean about hes true feelings. maybe she feels the same way. you'll never know if you never try. Or maybe he should ask her about it first. like how would she feel if he tells her that he likes her. maybe you'll get a clear answer.

My suggestion, expressed through the body. by giving gifts. write a message on the prize. express honesty and the expression of love for this to be a secret. say through the object if it was difficult to express with words. OK good luck

i think its rare that a girl wouldnt notice or wouldnt cross their mind that a guy bestfriend is falling for them.. Saying they dont know is so just in the movies. I had a bestfriend before a male and I fell for him but I dont let him know I know that he is too. So tell your friend to confess the feeling might be mutual you know.

Honesty is still the best policy. Try to tell your friend that it is better to confess his/her feelings, she/he will never know what will be the reaction unless he will try. Well if it was not as responsive as she/he thought it would be at least he/she was being true to himself/herself. their will be no "what if's syndrome".

Is his best friend a close minded girl? If yes then I don't think its a good idea for him to tell her what he feels. Its really possible that she will no longer talk to your friend. But if not then go for it! Its possible that she also feels the same way and she's just waiting for him.

I believe the best thing to do would be to tell her straight up. She can either accept him or reject him. If he continues to keep it to himself, sooner or later, he will be bottled up with those feelings, and that's not a good thing. It is a risk for their friendship, but I do believe that the only regret you'll make is the risk you did not take!

he must tell her^^ if he loves her he must tell her^^ he has nothing to lose^^ he just has something to win if she also loves him^^ it happened to me before i also loved my best friend i thought he maybe could like me too bcs he was very caring and sweet to me but he then acted very careless to me and changed completely but thats bcs he was already changing :( i was always caring much and was like he didnt care the same way you know. but with your friend is different they still are best friends and she always was caring to him too so he must tell her^^ im sure it will work well^^ we girls fall in love easier and if him is her best friend for sure she loves him too^^

I value friendship a lot so as much as possible, I would avoid to fall inlove with a close friend. For me, the friendship is to hard to sacrifice for love. I mean there are a lot of fishes in the see, why take the risk of hurting a friendship because of the love you felt for your bestfriend. In love, there is no sure thing. I would rather keep the friendship than explore the love that could possibly bud between me and my bestfriend.

I think your friend can discuss this topic with his best friend who he falls in love with. In this way, maybe you friend can get some clue about how his best friend look at love affairs between best friends. Or your friend can give his best friend some hints to show that he falls in love with her. If she react with encouraging behaviours, then I think most of the time, they will become lovers. And I think they will become happy lovers, because they understand each other so much. But if she reacts with negative response, then ask your friend to wait for a while of time and try next time.

tell him to go for it and show her how he really feels,what's the worst thing that could happen she wont talk to him again,but at the other side if she feels the same he could gain a girlfriend So my advice is go for it don't be so afraid you would be surprised of her response
