I think I'm in love with my best friend! We do everything together, like the same books and moves, and laugh all the time when we're together. We even used to compare stories of our respective relationships, and it just so happened that we're both single right now. I'm not sure when it hit me that I'm really really attracted to her. Now that I'm aware of my attraction though, I feel really self-conscious around her now. I catch myself staring at her, and every once in a while, she gives me this funny look and says "are you OK?" I'm not sure how she feels about me. I mean, she says stuff like, "you're the greatest" and "anybody would be so lucky to be with you" and even
"I love you" though I think she means it more in a friendly way. I'm scared to make a move. The most important thing is that I don't lose her as a friend, but sometimes
I'd think about what an amazing couple we'd make though if we were to become more than friends. I'm paralyzed about what to do with my f

well, most love affairs start out great but then the two "lovers" are looking through rose tinted glasses. give this the test of time and don't make any long time commitments. love has way of going out the window when indifference comes through the door.
right now you are hot for each other..but feeling change and people change...one or both of you could feel a whole lot different three months from now.
don't sin in haste and repent as leisure..keep your heart from getting broken by using common sense...good luck

Next time you two are talking about your past relationships or whatever you should casually suggest that you two should go out on a date and see how she responds. That should be light ice breaker I'd say. Personally I would be little scared if my best friend out of nowhere told me that he is in love with me, my suggestion is start off by asking her what she thinks of an idea of you two dating and take it from there. Good luck to you!!!

I have been where you are at. You will be sorry if you do not tell her. Try telling her that no matter what you do, you do not want to loose your friendship and I don't think you have to. Just say, "hey I may be confused because of things that have happened, but can you help me with my feelings." This way she will feel compassion for you whether she says no or yes to having the same feelings. Always take it slow.

I think you should talk to her about it. Maybe she feels the same way. Or if you have another friend you can trust have them bring it up in conversation with her and find out how she feels about you. I hope it works out for you. Good luck

Wow, well you should ask her out, because it seems like she likes you too. But if you are going to have a relationship with her make sure it is more of a friendly relationship than a "romantic" one.

dont be afraid. if you don't confront her now.. you'll nver know the truth. its better to have things in the open than for each of you to be assuming your own things. dont hide your feelings. take her out somewhere and let her know how you feel. ask her if she feels the same... you'll never know if you dont ask. n maybe you were giving out signals that you wanna get with her thats why she started telling you all those things

i'm in ALMOST the exact situation right now.
i've come to the conclusion that i have to decide if i truely like this person in the way that i want to be in a relationship... or if i just love them as a friend, and my mind is wanting me to be in a relationship with this person.
you have to figure out whether it is your head or heart speaking.

Calm down. Just ask her out on a date and go from there
if it doesn't feel right then you both can still be friends.

tell her... although you may lose a friend but you may gain a love. It will never be the same after you tell her, but do you want to go on like this?
