Maybe I can do better, but I'm happy, so I don't need/want to do better. Yes, he may ignore me when I'm there, sometimes, when he's around his friends, but he don't get to see them that often, and he always sees me.
He was my bestfriend before, and really I don't think we'll be much more than that. He won't kiss me, or anything more. And today my sister told me in the future I'm going to want something more, and there probably won't be anything more for us. She's probably right.
I don't want to lose him, because if I try, and think about life without him, I see myself sad, and miserable. I was already aware of the fact that we probably can't be friends afterwards.
Any opinions? Should I just ignore everyone else, and be happy?

Jeez I wish we could date. Everyone already thinks we are and honestly we basically are. But we can't. Not yet. Not until he can convince his dad I'm not a devil child...(long story...)
Can't wait until school tomorrow...
Oh, and I stole his jacket...which is very nice and smells like him...

He ignores you. In no circumstance should he /ignore/ you. Yes, he can talk to his friends and hang out with his friends. Of course he can, by all means. But if you are around, he shouldn't treat you any differently than when you two are alone.
You said it yourself. "He was my bestfriend before, and really I don't think we'll be much more than that." So he's your best friend. You already realize that he's not /actually/ your boyfriend.
He won't kiss you? Even after you've been dating for a while?
Yes, you will want more, especially if you really like him. If he doesn't feel the same way about you, which it seems like he really doesn't, he's not going to be able to be the boyfriend that you want him to be.
You have more a chance of losing him if you wait until things fall apart which, from what you said, seems like will definitely happen the longer you wait. You said that he was your best friend and you will never be anything more, which means that nothing should have changed between now and the time before you started dating. Here's one of my experiences to kind of help you out: I had a good guy friend. We started dating. A week later, nothing changed, so I ended it. We were perfectly okay and nothing seemed to have changed. We started dating again a little while later, for a longer period of time. It was a mistake. I ended it. We haven't talked since. If we hadn't started dating again, we probably would still be friends.
You didn't say anything about him being abusive, so I can't give any opinions on that matter.
You need to figure it out if you are actually happy or if you are just thinking that you should be happy and tricking yourself into it. A lot of the time, girls see the world through rose-colored glasses while the people around them see what is actually going on. Your friends, especially if they are good friends, know you well... and they are trying to take care of you. If you trust them, I suggest taking what they say to heart and really thinking about what is going on.
Is it worth it to continue like this is a dead end relationship where the other person doesn't feel the other way?
I'm sorry to be blunt, I just don't like what I read and felt the need to get my point in here.
