I have a relationship problem.

I am 18 years old and me and this guy from school became really good friends. He always wanted to go out with me but I liked this other guy and would get into relationships with other people but they didn't last too long. He however has always been there for me and he told me that if I was his girl he would do anything for me and at the time I'm like thats nice but now i truly believe he would. Now we've grown closer, we still talk as friends, he's become a very very good friend of mine and we'd share our feelings about each other.

But recently I am starting to feel that I want him more from him, I want to talk to him everyday, I want to see him everday and he feels the same way. We both said it's funny because we have the same feelings and we aren't together. A lot of my friends are picking up on are connection and i'm starting to really like him. My problem is if we were to go out and it doesn't work out it will change our really good friendship. I don't want to think it won't work out. Were still young and things are going to change in our lives we are still trying too find out who we are and what we want to do in life. At the same time i really care about him and he cares about me and we want to be together. But I think our friendship is too strong to put that at risk.

Am I right? I really see us being together in like 5 years from now, married with kids but i know if something was to happen between us and we broke up it's not gonna be the same as before even if we still talking as friends. I think about him all the time and get butterflies when i see him and its soo hard because i dont want to act on those feelings, and he feels the same way. What should I do?

to be honest with you you could go on in life wondering what if? i think you will regret it if you both dont do anything about it becasue you'l have never taken the chance to find out, if it dosnt work out at least you gave it a go and you wont be thinking in years to come i wish, and hopefully the both of you are mature and comfortable enough with each other to maintain a good friendship if it dosnt work out. living with regret is the worst thing in life and you will regre it once he finds someone else and you'll only blame yourself, so go for it. you have nothing to lose and goodluck.

There's a risk to EVERYTHING we do. If things end in the future mutually, then you two can work out just being non-intimate friends. If things don't, then it doesn't. However, if things do work out, you would have gained a great partnership.

Strangers should not tell you what you should do. Instead, we should open the possibilities to you. Unless of course, the issue is blatant.
