Is it normal to love your best friend for so long?

My best friend and I have been friends for 12 years. I had a crush on him the day I met him, and it began to grow. He didn't return my feelings when I was in 6th grade, he broke my heart and said he liked my other friend. Even then he didn't know my true feelings. The next years, he became more attached to me and was nervous around me. Nowadays, we are older, yet around me he blushes and fidgets around, sometimes having no words to say. He gets jealous when I compare him with other guys who are my friends. It's kinda endearing. He opens up more when he's around me, and he seems so happy. Neither of us had had a boyfriend/girlfriend since the day we met. We were 7 and 6 back then. At age 18 and 19, we still are friends, but I still love him. What should I do? And what does his actions mean?

    You are made for each other. There's no question about it, it's so obvious. Tell him how you feel. I know I don't know the two of you, but I'm positive he feels the same way. Best of luck to you!!
