Almost 1 year ago I met my best friend. He is amazing. He cares for my like he is my boyfriend. He makes sure I eat, and when he hears that I haven't in a while, he gets unnerved and takes me out to dinner or lunch. When I'm on my period he comes over and cuddles me for hours and massages my back when I tell him it hurts. When I'm crying about something he either cuddles me or pulls me into his lap, or brings me into a long warm hug, all the while petting my hair and kissing my forehead. He smiles when I enter a room, and I catch him staring at me when I'm not looking with a cute smile on his face. He is always telling me how beautiful, and sexy, and gorgeous I am.

But here is the catch...we are also FWB (friends with benefits) he tells me I've been a lot of firsts for him. That I'm perfect. He says he loves every bit of me.

When I was with my last boyfriend, he (the boyfriend), almost killed me. And my friend almost went berserk. Threatened to kill him, to beat the crap out of him, countless things.

My problem is...I've obviously caught major feelings, but...I'm scared to makes any sort of move...at all...I'm afraid of running him off...I'm afraid of loosing him. He says I'm his best friend. Everyone around us notices us when we are together, the affection we spread for each other. But one day I was joking around after his mom asked us if we were trying to be more then friends and I said "that would be a little weird" and he agreed and proceed to say "it would be like dating myself in a lot of ways"

I need all the help I can get...
