In love with best friend

Okay, so I am going to make this really easy for y'all to understand, I am in love with my best friend. I have been in love with him for nearly three years, but never said anything until a year ago, after the relationship I was in did not work out. Throughout this time, our bond has grown so intense and its like our friendship has potential to turn into more than that. The last three months,my feelings were buried until the beginning of this month. I never brought up how I felt, because I didn't want to have any feelings for him, and tried to just forget about those feelings, but keep the friendship. At the beginning of this month, we were talking and it turned out the feelings still existed and he knows that. He said he would like for us to have the chance to act on the possibility of a relationship. Unfortunately, I have been scarred really bad and it isn't just him that I don't trust not to break my heart, but practically everyone. Anyways, having a chance at this relationship is something I have always wanted, when his life and mine are less hectic. My question is, what should I do? Should I walk away from the possibility of there ever being a relationship with him or accept that there is a possibility of the relationship?

Go for it! I think you know deep down that you can trust him, as it's been 3 years already! Take the chance!
