Question - (15 November 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 17 November 2008)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I think I'm in love with my best friend, I've known her for a couple of years, but we've been through a lot.

I have some medical problems, that she helped me through them.

I'm not the um well I don't know a lot about sexual stuff, I'm told many times that I'm naive for a 15 year old...so I'm surprised I figured this out.

I used to lean on her; we used to be so comfortable we'd fall asleep on each other. But then when we were driving home one night, and my medical issues had gotten in the way, I was so upset, and she let me lay on her lap when I cried.

That’s when I figured it out. That I'm totally in love with her.

I cut off all touching, leaning I stopped all of that, I was afraid it would be obvious and she would figure it out and not be my friend. She's really important to me.

But lately instead of being normal, she's been different. She's telling me she cares about me, she's an artist like me so she's drawing me pictures a lot more (I've never seen her give one to anyone else)She wants to go to my recitals and she told me she gets jealous.

I think I'm just over-assuming, but when I think about kissing her or something like I feel like I really want to.

And I want to tell her, but I don't want to ruin our relationship. And she's not gay...I think well she's never had a boyfriend or girlfriend. Help please!

(Sorry it's really long)

A male reader, Bryanz United States +, writes (17 November 2008):

If you love her, you should tell her. Speaking as a guy, I know it sounds very wierd. But like, I am bisexual but only my girlfriend knows. Because im very scared that my bestfriend and friends will think of me as a freak. But you know what, just 2 days ago I proved myself wrong. I told EVERYBODY, yes sure. I lost a couple of friends, but those friends I lost we're meaningless to me, and im pretty sure I mean shit all to them to. But you know what, my bestfriend (Which is a guy) he accepted me, he was trying to signal that he is bi-curious so I obviously know he wants to tell me, but he can't.

So all I am saying is, she will accept you even if she is straight. If shes been giving you cry on her lap or letting you go through all you're problems expressing to her. Im positive she has some sort of a emotional feeling for you to. But by what I know, not many straight girls would let other girls cry on they're shoulder. If you we're to private message me back or reply on how she dresses and what she does to you or what she lets you do to her, I can probly identify if she is gay and if she likes you. (I have researched gay relationships and I know how most gays/lesbians dress).
