writes:I had a massive crush on this friend of mine I met about ten years ago. She was honestly the wittiest, coolest, girl I'd ever met, and all I ever wanted was for her to like me. And not even romantically, I never dared hoped for that much. Eventually we became super close and despite the sexual tension and chemistry I let that crush die on the vine because I didn't want to risk losing my best friend. Now I've always subconsciously had a crush on her but kept it to myself because we've been friends so long it's hard to cross that boundary. Well, the other evening out of the blue she was drunk and said "we could make this work we could travel the world and make money." I said wow, idk what to say are you teasing me or being real right now? And she responded, "It's not a tease this is my real deal thoughts."I told her that I adored her, but that I hoped she felt the same tomorrow when she was sober.In the morning she texted me, "Man. Like on some level I've always thought about it. But not now. I'm so sorry I feel horrible. But I am legit going through it so bad that's why I'm even drinking the way I am. I'm sorry. Like I don't do shit like this. So I am sorry"I asked her what was going on, she said her grandmother had cancer and that she's not dealing with it well I told her that I'm here if she needed to talk. Later on she called me and told me that she told her bf what happened and that he wasn't happy about it. He broke up with her months ago and, and he's been trying to get her back. She went on to say if he's ever out of the picture she'd give us a try.Recently she texted me, "Hey hey. I'm really struggling rn. Like mental health wise. I am going to kind of take a step back from everything. I need to go ghost for a bit but I wanted to at least let you know so you don't think anything happened to me." I told her that I understand and to hit me up whenever she felt better.Since our exchange she's been all I can think about. How easy and great our relationship would be. How do I navigate this situation?
