Love help: i think i’m in love with my best friend. - Help.com

The best thing ive found to be a sure answer is to sit it out and see what happens. Time has a way of bringing things to the surface. But seeing as how hes gay that might not be the way to get answer. My advice is to take it in stride and really search yourself as to what “kind” of love it really is that you are feeling. And if you guys are such close it might not be too destructive to talk to him about it. But if I were you, I would really look at what it is that has you falling for him. Im assuming you are a woman, and its been my expirence that gay men are much easier for some women to connect with. Whether it be a more sensitive personality or many other reasons. So keep that in mind when thinking it over.

good luck

i am a woman, i guess what i’m really wondering is if i should tell him, not expecting anything at all from him (obviously) but maybe it would help to tell him? or not…?

I think you would know best, how he would take it.

yeah you’re right.. thanks

your welcome, and good luck

You should tell him just to get it off your chest but i don’t know for sure if it would work out if he’s gay.

Love comes in many forms. The closest kind of Friendship feels exactly like love in a lot of situations. Try to separate out any thoughts of physical attraction from the feelings of fondness. Then look at both sets of feelings. What kind of love you’re feeling will probably become obvious to you after this. However that’s just based on my experiences so feel free to disagree.

thank you all, i appreciate and everything you guys have said has been very helpful. i’ve decided not to tell him, mainly because he probably won’t believe me.
