I'm a girl and i'm in love with my female best friend, - am i normal?

I met my best friend three years ago. Ever since that day, I have had strong feelings for her. Three years is a long time to have such feelings, especially for a person like me.
These feelings have been getting stronger and stronger as time goes on, and I feel so.. I don't even know how to describe it, but I don't know if I should tell her or not and I'm so confused about everything.
I'm bi as is she, but she's more the kind who just finds women attractive, not really for dating. Am I normal?

    I'm bi too, of course it is normal. :) i had feelings for my girl friend for like a year, but I know she's straight so I found no point in telling her or letting my feelings get any stronger.

    I'm a lesbian, and when I was younger I developed really strong feelings for my best friend who is also a lesbian. I told her and we agreed that we were too good of friends to mess up an amazing friendship invade it wouldn't have worked out with us dating. So it's definitely normal. Or atleast it is in my world. :)

      Any time you spend too much time with a person, you will eventually become emotionally connected
      this is especially true for females, who share their most intimate side with other females.
      Look at what happens when the trust is broken, there's no enemy like woman on woman..

    What do you expect from isitnormal?

    If we say you are abnormal and you will start thinking you are lesbian!

    If we say you are normal you become a lesbian!!!!!

    Now shut the system and figure it out yourself!!

    i'm in the exact same situation, at time's when we have been alone together i have just wanted to kiss her right then and there, but i know she's definitely into the D, so i have learnt to control the urges. i still find her irresistible though

    If you feel love for this person, then be careful so as to not get your heart broken. She says she just wants sexual flings. Listen to her! She may run off with someone else and leave you feeling hurt and empty. Deal with your feelings, decide if it's a good idea to tell her or not, and move on. I can tell you from experience that if you don't both simultaneously fall in love, it's 98% not likely to happen...

    yeah it's normal, I think.
    I had strong feelings for my female best friend back when we were in high school, but I'm not bisexual or lesbian so I've always thought it was weird.

    But thinking about it now, I spent all my time with her, she and I were practically attached to the hip and we share the same interests. Soo.. It's only normal I think.

    Ya I do think that this ia normal, if it starts to affect your everyday life (constantly thinking about her) you should probably tell her, If she is your best friend she'll be fine about it. I was in a similar situation and I told the person, they didn't feel the same way which kinda broke my heart so the best advice I can give is to pace yourself and don't expect her to have strong feelings for you to. If she does well then Yhat would be great.

    Yeah that's normal, friends always end up having more feelings towards each other then they do other people.

  • Yea - you are friends, but just because you are both lesbian doesn't mean she wants a sexual/romantic relationship now, (as you said), and when she does, it doesn't mean she'd want it with you.

    As chill pill suggests - be careful on your approach. I think you need to sort yourself out first. You already know she's not into dating yet. So you have to respect that. If you talk with her own all your feelings without putting pressure of her or expecting her to feel the same way. Maybe ask her as a friend if she can help you with this. And if you value her friendship above it all, as I think you do, do make that very clear. Those are my thoughts.

    But this is normal, for sure!

    Yes you are normal. The best relationships come from being friends first and since you are both Bisexual then there is little to worry about in the way of repulsion or total loss of friendship from rejection. Be careful on your approach though you don't want to lose her as a friend if her feelings don't match yours. Good Luck!

    ~Peace~

        Really? No one should? Is it abnormal? I'd bet you think like that.
