Is it normal to have a crush on your best friend but afraid to date her?

i have known my best friend since we were 5 years old and now I'm 19. About a year ago I've started to like her and I've found out she likes me too. The problem is that I'm afraid to go out with her because I'm afraid to ruin our 14 year friendship if anything bad happens. Is it normal??

Is It Normal?

  • Yes, of course it's normal. You have a lot to lose. But you also have a lot to gain. Only you can answer this question. Good luck!

  • Sometimes you gotta risk it for the biscuit. For a lot of reasons it would be an amazing relationship. You have so much in common it would work out awesomely! Only thing that could ruin it all is if there are lies. Good Luck.!

  • Go for it, friends usually end up as the best couples. As the song says...'how can we be lovers if we cant be friends'
