My boyfriend used to be my friend. I kept telling myself he was like an older brother, but a friend's party proved to me that i was completely lying to myself. But since i was already in a relationship i couldn't do anything about it until about 6 months later, when a friend set us up declaring that he'd had enough of me beating around the bush.

Hoshi's right; sometimes it's best to start as friends and go from there. It can be surprising what happens. Me and Luke have been together nearly three yers now, and although it took us a month or two to say "i love you" (he actually said it at midnight New Year's Eve) we've never looked back and still feel the same as we did those early months. We have arguments, but what couple doesn't?

Take it day by day and see what happens, i have a good feeling that you might be surprised, but from which quarter i couldn't say.
