I know everyone says to trust them, but I am a girl and have always had guy best friends growing up and not once have I not "hooked" up with them. It's hard becuase you have a guy that you are talking to and opening up to him because he's your best friend right? Well, then you get into the fact well, I want a guy like my best friend that will listen... and it happens. A guy best friend is a guy waiting to be the next in line. I'm sorry. But on the other hand, you know the two and it may be different. I just know that in the last twenty some years of my life I have convinced many boyfriends that the guy is just a friend. AND IT IS WRONG!!! don't get me wrong there! my ways have changed but i'll always warn someone in a like situation to just be careful. Good luck with that.
