Well your profile doesn't indicate if you are male or female, however I would try not to express those urges either way because due to personal experiences of my own, relationships between friends ends friendships and brews rivalry.

Maybe try to not act on those urges, I know it's hard, but it'll be better in the end.

Then again I have no idea whether you are male or female, so my advice is rather blunt.

He's a male...

In his post he refers to his friend as a male and insists that his friend is straight so we can infer that the OP is male.

As for your situation I really don't know what you're looking for us to say...

If you tell him NOTHING will happen because HE'S STRAIGHT. Just because you're attracted to someone of any sex doesn't mean anything's going to happen.

Frankly, it'd be pretty foolish to say anything.

Jesse - I got the same problem. But sometimes he gives me kinda mixed signals. I mean we have known each other since we were little kids. When we sleep over - it is really hard on me. We have known each other so long, it is like nothing for us to not really cuddle, but kinda roll over against each other during the night. I will put my arm across him, and he will do the same sometimes, just kinda seems natural.

But I am so afraid of doing something that will cross the line - if he has one. I love him as a friend maybe more, but value us being frinds so much more than anything else. I am not sure what I would do if I lost him as a friend - i think of that as death.

You have mentioned hes your best friend, and the dilemma between telling him you are turned on by him, and losing your bestie VS keeping it within yourself and remain where you are.

Its ultimately up to you if you decide to tell him, and it too does depend on how close the two of you actually are.
When you mentioned hes straight, does it include being homophobic as well?
Or if its just his preference in partner?

You have mentioned solely the sexual aspect, but are you attracted to him emotionally as well?
As best friends, im sure you both have had certain touchy topics when it comes to homosexuality and sexual preference.

His responses can be potential tell tale signs of his orientation/preference.
Not to mention body language, and what catches his eye most of the time.

Assuming if you told him and he decides to withdraw from you, because of your preference, i'd guess he was not much of a friend to begin with, plenty from where that came from.
In most cases of such, if you did not ask, you will never get the answer.

Good luck

in my personal opinion, i think that you should just try to control yourself, dont let feeling show alot, it can lead to a really bad ending. try to think on something else when he is with you.
