Why do my friend's care so much

okay, so I'm varsity cheer leading captain. but that doesn't define me as a person. I'm nice and funny I think. but there is this kid who is madly obsessed with me and has been for almost 3 years now. and I talk to him all the time. he flirts with me but everyone thinks he's like soooooooooo not my type. he's cute except for the fact that his teeth are screwed up. but my big problem is ALL my best friends hate him, and I don't think our ""relationship" would work if everyone I talk to / hangout with hate him?

what should I do?

a.give him a chance and say f***k it to everyone else

b. listen to my friends cause they know what is right for me?
