This is actually my first post on reddit ever, but this situation has been on my mind for a while now, and I'm not sure what the best approach is, so I decided to ask you guys for some help. 

I [25f] met my friend[27m] at work 4 years ago. We had an instant connection, but I was in an on/off relationship with the same person until a few days ago. My friend was there for it all, and was the one I always sought out to talk to. We've come close to getting together, but when I was at an "off" point in my relationship, he was in one.

We have never acted on anything because of the circumstances. However, now that I'm "available" again, I don't want to have him be a rebound, but I also want to satisfy this... urge... 

We're also in this same group of friends who get together like once a week, and I don't want that dynamic to change if things got weird. We also both tend to get attached quickly, and I don't want to be in a serious relationship yet, nor am I sure if I want one. Do I ignore these feelings and be single and just be friends, or do I just go for it and see if more tries to develop? Am I thinking into this way too much?

I'm attracted to a friend of mine and I'm not sure if I should leave him alone and wait it out, or try to pursue it.

I have feelings for my friend, but he's in a relationship. Do I ignore my feelings for him and wait, or do I go for it?
