Another 'best-friend/possible romance' thing

Well, I had known her for a few years. She's my best friend, and her and I never had gotten into any fights before. I've never been closer with anyone and I value her friendship with my life.

But . . . just recently we got into a little bit of a squabble. It meant nothing, and she got over it really quickly, but it hit me hard somewhere. I felt like for a split second I could've lost her.

After a few days of deep thought I'm beginning to think that I love her. Yes, love. The sad part is, I'm a straight girl (according to everyone else) as is she. This is the first time I've felt this way about . . . well . . . anyone. I'm not sure what to do. She thinks everything is normal, but now I'm afraid to talk to her even. I'm afraid she already knows, and I've seen romance f**k up friendships before, so I'm really paranoid.

  • Who knows (only she does), maybe she likes you too.

    Good luck.

  • Based on your question, is difficult to term this topic Normal or Not Normal.

    If you're willing accept the consequences, to say goodbye to your friend if things don't work out the way you want them to, then go for it. If you can't accept that it could end your friendship, then you need to focus your love somewhere else. Your choice.

  • Are you afraid of these new feelings? If so perhaps try to accept them & accept that you can handle being her friend without going anywhere else with it. That way, at least you can give yourself a bit of time to get a handle on what is going on for you.

    Suggest you try to relax about it in the meantime. You're already friends. You are not going o do anything to freak her or yourself out, whatever these new feelings are about.
