Love help: I think I love my best friend. - Help.com

Hm.

If you tell her, she might like you back, or not.

If you don’t tell her, she might love you and you lost out.

I’m pretty sure YOU have to pick what you want to do.

The same thing is happening with me and my best friend…except its flipped. I’m the girl and I dont know how he feels. If your not sure, test it. See what she says to certain things, how she reacts to certain things, and stuff. If she reacts in a more “friendly” way then a “love” way, stay friends. Us girls though, we have a thing for falling for our best guy friends. Good luck ^^

one of my friends and i were in this position and we both told eachother how we felt…it turned out good and we had a great relationship for a couple of months till out of the blue he decided he didn’t like me anymore and it ruined not only our love life but our friendship as well

what im getting at is sometimes friends are better than relationships, which only complicate things

however it’s your choice to make…you know her better than we do and you can make the best choice.

the best of luck to you :)

I dont think that if you tell her how you feel and she doesn’t feel the same that it would ruin your frienship. It would make things awkward for awhile but eventually things would go back to the way they were. I really dont feel that you have anything to lose by telling her. If you dont, you will just wonder what could have been. Go for it!

I have had this happen. I told her how I felt and got shut down. She doesnt really talk to me anymore besides the cordial Hellos and so on. But it may seem bad but it feels good to have tried and given the chance out there. I say go for it.

Ok, here’s the thing: it’s definitely a possibility that your friendship can be altered if you tell her about your feelings. I don’t think it would completely end, but if she doesn’t feel the same way, it will definitely be awkward for her and she might act differently around you for a while.

If you’re willing to take the chance, explain to her the same way you’ve explained it here, and assure her that if she doesn’t feel the same way, you’ll understand and won’t try to push the issue.

Hope this helps!

ok the same thing with me i love my bestfriend but im in a different situation im gay yes… but before you ask her out or do anyhting that might ruin your friendship you should sit down with her and ask her how she feels about you if she likes you like you like her then ask her out unless she is ging out with someone…if she doesnt like you like that you should stil ltell her how you feel and say you still want to be friends even though you love her you have to let her think about everything before you are all over her….me my guy i like has a bf so its hard for me
