I know she likes me, but she is very insecure because I am young, and she says she wants to best friends with me forever and ever. She is a Capricorn lady. I seriously do not know what to do. We are really close. What should I do?

Since she has already declared you as her best friend forever, you have almost no chance of being together with her. The most you can do is try to ignore her sometimes and maybe she will come around.

reader, anonymous, writes (2 January 2013): I am of the belief that age should not matter as long as two people really love each other or really are in-love with each other and really want to be together. You say you know she likes you, and that you are in love with her, so, assuming you agree with the previous sentence about age, why not say that you don't think age should matter, tell her how you feel about her, and 'take the plunge'. After-all, they do say, do they not(?), that love is about chemicals/feelings/emotions, none of which are exactly age-related!
This situation you're in reminds me of how things are between two particular close female friends of mine (I'm male, in my mid-twenties). I like both of them in 'that way' (i.e.: the way that you do), but particularly in my case, I don't think either of us really want to take things further, even if either of them did reciprocate the feeling, for fear of ruining a great friendship were the relationship to 'break down.
