Is it normal to fall for your best friend?

I have this very kind and beautiful best friend and I fell in love with her. I've been friends with a lot of girls for 8 years but this girl is the only one that made me feel this way. The thing is she likes another guy or possibly love this guy. It's killing me because we swore to each other no secrets and I couldn't tell her this because if I did, it could ruin our friendship. What should I do?

    Pray about this and tread lightly.

    I think you could also ask some probing questions about what qualities she looks for in a guy. On a separate occasion ask her about what good qualities she sees in you.

    If you should decide to confess your feelings to her be prepared for the possibility of her not sharing those feelings as well as hopeful that she will. You're only human and you might find that you resent her for being interested in other guys especially after you pour your heart out to her. Try to prepare yourself spiritually and emotionally for whatever the outcome may be.

    Break it off - she will never love you like you love her and anyone who tells you otherwise has watch one too many rom-coms. Humans adapt to anything given time and you'll feel a lot better having made new friends and putting this charade behind you

    Falling for your best friend is probably one of the most normal things there is. You share everything basically and then to fall for them? Well it can be hard. Specially if someone else is involved, you could keep quiet for a while which is what id do, then if it got to much I'd tell them, but be aware that it could harm the friendship.

    Anyway rose's advice is great ^
