well if yo hav ebeen mates for that length of time, you can normally get away with asking subtle hints about how you feel, sometimes they pick up on them and respond accordingly, but if you want to try it honesty may be more sucessfull, i know you are worried about your friendship, but if you say it as it is that over th past 2 months your feelings have increased and you like her more than jstu a friend, but say you don't want to jepordise the friendship... or someting along the lines of that, and ask her not to treat you any differnetly but ask her how she feels, if she turns you down you can still be friends, but you never know until you try asking her out... i would suggest going for it... it worked for me twice so you never know. but best of luck with it, but its something you have to decide by yourself!

My best (well, only) relationship was with someone I'd been friends with for over two years. Go for it.

time! time is the essence. my mates take the p1ss outa me but 'if its ment to be then it will be!'. seriously though, if your not sure... dont risk a great friendship. wait a while and see. if she likes you then it will be a bit more obvious and you wont have doubts?

although on the other hand, if you like her that much and cannot be just mates wiv her then thats another story?

not much help i know but good luck! xxxx

I dont think you should confront her directly about feeling like that because it could all just go wrong and completely wreck the friendship. Try being a bit subtle and kind of make it clear that you like her without being blunt, she'll give you the message how she feels without making it an issue.

The real question is - can you go on seeing her as a friend, seeing her dating other people without exploding?



Nope, I really dont think I can, omg i really dont no wot 2 do!!! But thnx again 4 the advice. Does this mean I shud ask her out? But how!

You know what? A good few things can happen here.

She can fall into your arms from the word go and you'll live happily ever after

She can say no, and your friendship can die a death

and she can say no, but manage to keep it normal.

Way to keep it happy <3.
But seriously, just try and test the water. Do things which are a little less friendly and a bit more flirty. See how she responds.
