Love help: My best friend asked me out! - Help.com

you need to be upfront and honest with him.. tell him the truth.. respect is the key here.. tell him how you feel.. that you like him as a friend only… and that is what you want from him.. he will understand..

Tell hime that. He likes you but you don’t like him that same way… Just tell him you like him a lot as a friend (wich is why he’s bestfriend) but you dont see him as a boyfriend, hes like a big brother to you. Tell him you value your friendship, so you dont want to risk anything by taking this odd step for you.

They do say you should marry your best friend though.

Tell him that you are flattered, but you need to be honest, and that you don’t share those feelings. Tell him you hope very much that he’ll respect that and your friendship can continue, because he means a lot to you as a friend. Then just try and be light and casual about things. If it doesn’t seem like a huge over dramatic deal to you, he will be able to make it less of a big over dramatic deal to him.
