But for a while now, I have been having really strong feelings about her, as something way more than a friend, or even a girlfriend. I know I'm only 17, but I really care about this girl and we have been through so much together and have been friends for a long time. I have never actually been "in love" before this, but I have liked other girls and been with them, and I can tell that this is something completely different from any other encounter I've had. I feel like she is the only person who really understands me and really sees me as who I am. We talk about a lot of personal stuff, and honestly, I feel such an attachment to this girl that it hurts to even see her being friendly with another guy, and this whole thing has really been screwing up my days lately. I want to tell her how I feel, but I am afraid of how she will react, and I don't want our friendship to be awkward, or even worse, end because of this. What can I do?

You have no choice but to choose whether you wana stay as just friends or you want her as a gf.You can't always have best of both worlds.I always ask if you don't tell the person you like how you feel about them,how will they know? Just be a man and step up to her and explain yourself.If you are too shy try flirting with her more and see her reaction e.g holding hands,looking into her eyes and after a while try kissing her but don't blame me if you get slapped!
Good Luck.

 Just tell her that you like her a lot. She will get the hint.
Then if the response is favorable, you can on other occasions tell her that you love her a lot...
