Default how to tell a close friend that you have feelings for them

Ok so there is this girl who I've been absolutely crazy about for some time now. However, we are really great friends and I'm not sure if she likes me the same way. What if at all, should I say to her. Should I saw my true feelings or just keep it in and look for a sign from her?

First accept that you may very well lose them as a friend, and probably will. Then you just tell them, however you'd like to phrase it.

Whatever is best for you. Weigh your options. Would you rather be tortured by a close friendship that'll never develop into what you want it to (and eventually, keep in mind, end entirely one day), or would you rather take a risk to see if it could be anything or if you should just drop the entire thing.

flirt with her a bit and gauge her reaction. If it's positive then give it a shot, if not well you haven't lost anything.

This would work, but like most it'll likely end up as a pouring out of his heart, but that would work.

And Zeppelin yeah, that would do just fine, if not perfectly. :-P

Just tell her honestly.

Whether the reaction is horrible or not it has to be done.

Yea this may have to be done. It's been harder and harder to hold it in. Thing is it feels like it must be done now or never, because now that were all in college we don't see eachother as often. And I hung out with her tonight and it felt so great, and she had a great time as well but I just don't know.

Fuck at least life is interesting

I've had this female friend for nigh on 8 years I told her I had feelings for her a year and a half ago (I was very confused, sorta desperate and at that stage couldn't distinguish between a lot of different feelings). I think I wrote a thread about it.

Anyway point is, yes I was shot down and yes we got over it and yes we're still fantastic friends. And I'm not attracted to her in that way anymore in the slightest. Everythings good

It's not all doom and gloom. If your friendship is so crap it would implode after something like this it wasn't that great in the first place.

As Zep said, "You dont."

I had the exact same thing happen to me. A friend i had was head-over-heels for me and one day she decided to let me know. The great friendship we had was gone forever since then. We dont even talk now :( Just keep a friend, rather than lose one.

yeah, i'm in sort of the same position. Except its a tad more complicated, because this is one of my very best friends. She has a boyfriend, i'm a chick (even though we're both bi), we've hooked up before but it was all due to alcohol... for her anyway. Yeah, its a bitch, don't tell her. It could really fuck up a great relationship

ask her if she had a great time. you never know, maybe she does have feelings for you, and that'll spill 'em. Don't bet on it, mind you, but it's always a place to start figuring out how she feels about you.

Intoxication is a must. If she liked you like you like her, you'd know. But you might be able to open her eyes if she decides she really likes hooking up wth you if you pass it off as intoxication.

Also, don't say "I have strong feelings for you." Use stronger language.
