I'm still in love with my high school friend, should I tell her?

A male Malaysia age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I had a crush on a classmate when I was still in high school. However, I was too shy to admit those feelings to her and so we left our graduation as friends.

We lost touch in college and we did not see each other till very recently. I reconnected with her through Facebook and we have chats for only about an hour a day since she doesn't go nolne much. We've had only about 8 chats so far, and they are usually related to finding out what the other is doing and the like.

I'm still in love with her but I don' know if I should tell her. She has just recently given me permission to call her on her mobile phone because I'm an old friend. I was planning to call her up and invite her out to coffee to get to know her a bit more.

I'm wary of scaring her away by being to abrupt with my declaration. On the other hand, her last statement made me worried that she has placed me in the "friend" zone.

Should I continue trying to get her to feel comfortable with me before going all out? Or maybe I should tell her this early before I slip into the "friend" zone forever? Should I just give up and resign myself to the fate we will never be more than friends?

This is a toughie... First check if she is in a relationship. Maybe it is to late but it will rip you apart unless you try. I'm not going to say she'll instantly fall in love with you or even if she'll agree to go on the date with you, but if eventually you get dropped into the pit of the friend zone you'll regret every second you wasted not trying.

I hope this helped. Keep us posted =)
