Just tell them simply .. I have found myself thinking about you more and more each day. As the time has past I have come to understand, that I love you, I am really in love with you.

It depends on the situation. One time I did literally tell my loved one "I love you"; sadly she wasn't meant to be with me.
Years later, with a different woman, I told her but not so much as a declaration but simply to share with her my heart and what GOD had done in my life since I came to know her. I shared this way because I knew she didn't feel the same way but I felt that it was important to let her know my feelings, in part because she was soon to leave overseas and I wanted to at least share this with her while I had a chance.
It proved to be a mistake but the fact is that she probably would've shut me out of her life whether I told her or not...
Hmm...maybe I should've chosen "Heartbreak Kid" as my id?
In the situation you've mentioned (somewhat similar to one I mentioned above), it really depends on how close you are to them, how open you are in conversation (whether casual or serious topics) and whether or not you sense attraction on their part.
If they treat you as a "good buddy", confidant or if they don't really spend a lot of time with you then they may not be receptive to your love.
Perhaps, ask them a "hypothetical" question? Ask them if they're interested in anyone at the moment. Perhaps a mutual friend could help with this? On the other hand, you might just take the plunge and ask.
Although being rejected (if that happened) would hurt, at least you would know where you stand rather than simply wonder and wait.
I've been in situations similar to the one you're describing and if this is your situation, I just want you to know that my heart goes out to you and I really hope that, however it happens, that the two friends will become more than friends.
All the best to you!

OK! Just saying it is tha best way but it could end up awkward that way to. You're in a very tricky situation. If i were you tha first thing i would try and do is find out how she feels about me and if they are tha same feelins i have. Then based on how she feels would be how i dealt with it. If she turns up having feelings for you go for it. Yall have been friends who's to say she isn't in love with you to. If she doesn't like you then just try to let it go or even still tell her it could change her opinion of you, too. basically just follow you heart that's all you really can do

Yes, it will be awkward, but hasn't it been awkward (for you) all these years?
Put on your prettiest outfit. Put on a subtle perfume. Make sure your hair is perfect. Men are visual, but you need to arouse all of his senses. You want him to finally notice you; to see what he is missing out on. Go up to him, smile, start talking about something, move in close, look into his eyes and lightly touch him. Touch his hand or arm. Change the subject and start talking about your feelings toward him. Hold your breath and keep looking in his eyes... You'll know how he feels in ten seconds.
Good luck!

Talk for a while... about anything...go somewhere alone, like the park for example. Before you leave, say well i had a good time =] theres something i've been meaning to tell you..'I'm in love with you' there you go =] then you can leave if you want.

Just say ti when it feels right "i Love you" is not Awkward it is sweet, although some people just throw it around as if it doesn't mean a thing.

If you just say "I love you" they may think you mean just as a friend. Make sure you state you love them than more than just a friendly love. Say something that is really sweet. You should know them well, so you'll know what makes them say aww or something. Good Luck. :)

Say: "I know we've been friends for a long time, and it's great that we are. I just want you to know that in addition to that, I love you." Then go on as normal. If they love you, then they'll say so. If not, you'll remain friends.

Sure it will be awkward - does that mean you shouldn't do it?
Does he love you? You should know this already.
So ask away and get ready for the pain if he says no!

i just did this last month. we were friends for almost 4 years and finally last month while we were hanging out at his house watching tv, i told him that there was something I had to tell him. I said you might find this awkward but that i felt that i had to tell him. and then i just said "i love you" and he said it right back to me. apparently he was was thinking of a way to tell me how he felt i just beat him to it.
