but you feel like you can't even talk to them anymore because you are afraid you might show you love them? You want them to know, but you are afraid because it might ruin your friendship if they don't love you back? How do I overcome this fear??

Ask yourself this question:

Am I prepared to wonder, for the rest of my life, if this girl could've been THE ONE?

If she likes you back, it could be the start of a wonderful relationship. You just never know until you try. But if she doesn't, you learn how to control your emotions and realize (what she will) that you deserve someone who will return your feelings and find a way to remain her friend.

It is good that you are best friends. It means that you are use to be being open and honest with each other. It can be a wonderful place to start a serious relationship from.

Does she have a boyfriend right now? If so, you should not make a move right now. She needs to be single and you can not influence her relationship in an attempt to make her single! She would resent you otherwise and question your motives.

If she is single, then tell her how you feel and ask her to give you a chance. I know from experience that this can work great. I married my best friend! We were best friends for two years before we started dating. Now we are married and everything is great!

Is this too assume they must not feel the same as you? That's a tough one. I guess it's time for you to take two steps backwards than. Your mind must of been working overtime huh? If you feel she would not have the same feelings for you, it just might blow your friendship wide open. It's your judgment on how you think they might react. I am sure your "gut feeling" tells you pretty much the answer, maybe that's why you have a feeling of fear!

theres no getting over it until you just do it man. let your friend know. they may reciprocate - they may not. but you'll never know what could have been unless you put yourself out there. besides, if you don't, it sounds like your ruining the friendship anyways seeing how you dont even wanna talk since you like this person. open up - let them in - and if htey decide to stay awhile - cool. if not - you've still got a friend:)

You should always be best friends with anyone that you love. If you are 'afraid' of sharing feelings with someone then you should back off the whole love thing. You are not ready.

Usually this is not a good answer... But, in your case... "LOTS OF ALCOHOL"... then, when you hook up with your friend, you can say that it was because you were drunk.

Once you have had it, you will probably not need it as much as you think that you do now... And, then, you can move on with your friendship.

It is better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all. You must talk to your friend and show her that you love her. What if she is your soul mate and what if she loves you just as much? You will lose out on her if you don't tell her.

sorry but the only way is to tell that person you like them as more of a friend.. hopefully they will say they feel the same otherwise if that person is a good friend they will try to understand and just remain freinds
