Is it normal for me to be scared to admit my feelings for a friend?

I've had feelings for this guy for 2 years now. I practically have from the moment I saw him. I've kept my feelings to myself though, and over the past 8 months or so, we've become very close. We talk online every night. I feel like I've friend zoned myself, however, since he often talks about this one girl (he won't tell me who). I've realized now though that we really understand each other and I think I'm in love. However I'm terrified of telling him. I don't want to ruin our relationship, but I don't think I can take feeling like this anymore. Is this normal??? Does this happen to other people? and if so, what can I do?

  • Yeah, this is happening to me right now.. but except with two of my friends D: But in your case, you should admit your feelings to this guy. Odds are, the girl he's talking about is you.

    Trust me a guy doesnt video chat a girl every night if he doesnt like you.
    other possibility: hes gay

    Nothing worse than being in the friend zone, just tell him how you feel. The longer you wait the more it will cause pain. I understand you're nervous about ruining a great friendship, everybody is, but sometimes it's worth the risk.
