Our parents sent each other christmas cards but we never met up as families. We didn't really know each other then so nothing really happened. But then we started the same secondary school together after seven years of not seeing each other at all. We sat next to each other for several lessons and always talked about the most randomest things but always had a laugh. We talked over MSN all the time. One of my best friends, is also his cousin. I have told her that I thought of him more than a friend and now she is trying to set us up (: Apparently he feels the same way towards me as well but he, as well as me, has said that we are such good friends and don't want to ruin our friendship when we break up. I don't know what to do so any advise would be great! Many thanks xx

I can't see how, if you 'officially' began dating, how that would ruin a good friendship? Hun, sometimes being good friends to begin with, is the best, most solid basis for dating someone, over the long term and enjoying a good quality love relationship. Trust and respect are two very important key compnenets in a dating relationship. . I recommend you at least give this a try because being good friends involves trusting, caring for and respecting the other person. You have a heck of a good start here.
If you both feel there is an big chemistry and you both enjoy being together...and he feels the same...then go for it. Good luck hun and the best of luck to you both

It IS possible to be friends after a relationship, although it can be hard at first. I dated my best friend, and it was kind of an odd breakup... When we first broke up we had to draw strict lines at touching and stuff, until we were both OK on our own. We needed a little time to heal. That was probably the hardest time in our relationship, but I'm glad that I stuck it out. Now we're best friends again. We can tell each other everything and anything. And neither of us regrets the relationship, because, to quote Shakespeare: "It's better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all."
