Is it normal to love someone but too shy 2 ask?

So, one of my friends, is really tall and she has the same interests as me, and has that beautiful laugh that brightens up your day.

We have known each other since we were 8, both single. but we have never asked each other out. We go to movies, have dinner, hang out with friends, and everything that bf/gf's do. Is this normal?

    Just be careful with this - guys often ruin a friendship with girl when they fall in love with the said girl ;)

      friendships with a girl are bullshit. Just FYI. It never ceases to amaze me that girls think they can have "guy friends." Every guys end game is the same unless she's some hideous beast. Unless your guy friend is gay or you are butt ugly 9 times out of 10 he's trying to get with you.

      And to the OP yes it's normal but you might kick your own ass if you don't take the shot.

    "Is it normal to be shy to ask someone out on a date?"

    Nope, totally weird. You're the first person who's ever been nervous to ask someone out.

    OP you're gonna torture yourself if you don't give it a shot. And if you're really good friends, and she's just not interested then odds you guys will get over it eventually. However, it not working could become awkward for awhile and you guys may end up just being casual friends. This may not be a terrible thing though when you become 16/17, because you'll probably hook up with her eventually. Hooking up with her would only be possible if you guys weren't that close. So I would do it now.

    It's normal. Asking a girl out is scary. You might get rejected and such.

    coming from a girl herself, most of us gals feel the same about guy friends, i've had so many guy freinds that i like i think i'm some kind of player. back to what i was saying, when i was in fourth grade thins guy i liked was my best friend. we were both in choir , but he was in fifth grade, so we only saw each other in choir. on the day of our preformance some girl was yelling at him, so i sat between him and her to resolve the conflict. i know this post is way late, but i found out that he liked me too, idk if we hugged or kissed because after he said he loved me i kinda went into a haze in memory of kyle

    Dude, you are friend zoned and it is going to be really awkward for both of you if you tell her how you feel... She might see you as her best male friend and probably not thinking of you as more than that.

    My advice: You need a change bro, this girl can do whatever she wants to do with you and that's not a good situation 4 you. Meet other people and you'll probably find out that you don't love this girl as much as you say you do.

    Yeah it is I've been in love with my brothers best friend for years. But just man up and ask her out if she feels the same way u won't regret it and if she just wants to stay friends show her how good it could be to be with u,

    Some friendships between a girl and boy that have gone on for a while, i consider to be "long time friends." If I were you, i would check some of the signs on the internet, "how to know if a girl likes you", and compare that to y'alls friendship. but this doesn't exactly mean she likes you, but still, if they match i would go for it.

    tell her you like her, if she feels the same way you're set...if she doesn't just let her know nothing will change.

    just don't pour your heart out to her or she will freak and you'll ruin your relationship.
