I'm assuming you're a guy? Perhaps you enjoy her company a lot, in the different things you share with each other - perhaps what you talk about, the open conversation, the feeling of finding someone you can truly get on with without having to force anything to get along.

I'd say it's a strong, deep friendship you share and whilst that is a very strong factor of a relationship, without the attraction perhaps it's not really a romantic bond you feel, but a really good friendship.

if me and my best friend (she's a girl) have been talking and hanging out a lot recently and i feel like im starting get attached to her, but when im with her i don't find her physically attractive, what is this?

infatuation?
love?
becoming too easily attached because im single?

I reckon a bit of all three. But love in the sense of caring for someone deeply rather than necessarily a romantic interest. And infatuation from having someone who seemingly cares so much for you too. Besides, physical attraction is not a prerequisite to a friendship or relationship. Indeed, a there's a lot to be said for a relationship built on friendship.
