About This Quiz

Country music singer Carolyn Dawn Johnson said it best with her song, "Complicated," which runs through the tragedy of being in love with your best friend. Do you say something and risk ruining your friendship? Or do you say nothing and never know what could have been? If you're taking this quiz, you obviously have a lingering question.

Even though you may feel like you are in love with your best guy friend, it doesn't necessarily mean the two of you will make a great couple, but luckily it also doesn't mean you'd make a bad one. On the one hand, your best guy friend can make you laugh and treats you with respect. On the other hand, your best guy friend knows all your hot buttons and how to push them. Plus, he knows everything - EVERYTHING! That's not always something you are comfortable with in a relationship.

You may have a crush, but is that enough to know if you and your best guy friend would make a good couple? Maybe, but just to make sure, it's time to answer a few questions to determine if you should try and take that nervous plunge.
