Is it normal to love your best friend you haven't seen in 5 years?

After I met my best friend the chemistry between us was very on point. It was ridiculous to the point that when we would be around each other our friends and other people noticed. We never dated, but stayed friends. When I moved we still kept in contact with email, phone calls, and letters for when he was in basic training. We pretty much know each other inside and out. I want to know is it normal to have feelings for my best friend that I haven't seen in 5 years? Also how can I tell him that I have such deep feelings for him and want to be with him even though we live on opposite sides of the country?

    this is coming from someone who is madly in love with his best friend: talk to him! tell him that you have never dated before but maybe it will make your friendship stronger. don't lay it on so thick you could spread it on pancakes but make sure he knows.
