Taking it to the next level

What does this mean?  When you are good friends with someone from the opposite sex and things are going well, do you take it to the next level?  What if they don’t feel the same as you do, will it make it weird between each other?  What if that’s what they want but you don’t feel the same, do you hurt their feelings by being honest or do you pretend you feel the same and try it out?  These are all questions you must consider before taking it to the next level.  Most often when two people are good friends they have a better chance that it can move on. With that being said it is very important to keep the lines of communication open and be honest with each other.  People who have very trusting and honest relationship usually last and often that relationship does begin as a friendship.  Being friends first allows the two people involve being themselves without the pressure of trying to impress the other. There is nothing to lose because your heart is not invested the way it is when you are in love or start going out with someone.
