JT's Dilemma

Dear Ryan and Sam,
I have recently discovered that I am in love with my best friend. I am afraid if I tell him, I will lose his friendship. Even worse, I am afraid he will realize that I am not good enough for him. Do you guys have any advice for me?

Thanks,
JT Barrett

Dear JT,
 
 
Our best advice would be to tell him how you feel. If you don't, you'll never know if he feels the same way. Look out for any clues, read his signs. Does he do anything to make you think he might feel the same way? If he doesn't, it's not a guarantee that he doesn't feel the same way. Maybe he's just as scared as you are. But, really, there's no way of knowing unless you put yourself out there. If he's a good friend, you won't lose his friendship. He'll understand even if he might not feel the same way. Just be aware that there might be some weirdness before things go back to normal. Above all, communication is key! And, well, if he does feel the same way, then you've got nothing to lose, right?
 
Good luck!
 
Sam & Ryan
