So I have a friend that I've been friends with for about 5 years, but I've known her since I was 5 and I'm now turning 17. Recently I've had different feelings for her, and I think I'm falling for her. We go to schools that are all guy and all girl school, so although its seperate schools its similar in that way. I don't know if she has the same feelings for me, but I get the feeling that she doesnt. I've always kind of been flirty with her. She doesn't really flirt back but she laughs when I flirt with her so it's not like im harassing her. We are able to have serious conversations, and we have a lot of common interests and look at relationships and such in the same light.My question is if I should tell her my feelings or not? Maybe they will go away? Need advice thanks.

Friend or more?

Why not test the water and talk to her? Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I agree.

my fear is that this will hurt our friendship if she doesn't think of me the same way.

Dude... Turn it around.. If she was feeling these kinds of feelings that you are having for you would you want to know? You say she's your friend... So, How would you feel or what kind of advice would you give her?

Just take it slowly and see how things develop. You don't have to rush into anything.

I was in the same situation a while back. I ended up telling her how I felt, and now we're together. It really depends on if she's interested in you though. If she's not, it would be nice to know. Perhaps you should talk with her about it. If she doesn't, just tell her you don't want things to change, and that you value your friendship a lot. You'll be friends, and you'll know for sure. Just something to think about. Good luck!
