Don't ever lose your friend. Love doesn't always last forever, but frienships do, always.... so just keep it inside as time eventually heals....
what if they are not into you??!!!, maybe they never think of you as a lover, but they always know that you're the best for them;as a friend..
good luck !!

Who says you can't fall in love with them? My ideal romance would be with a friend I have a very strong bond with. If anything love would be that much better and during the hard parts of the relationship you always have the friendship to fall back on. Unless your friend is already with someone else then I say go for it!

I'm not the one who changed my friend did and he certainly changed our closeness. I avoid him now and don't call him and don't want to see him because he took the dynamics of the relationship and tagged it and messed everything up. Now not only do we not have a friendship we don't have anything. He should have left it as it was and we'd still be getting along.

why fight it? you never know if they're the right one unless you take the chance. if the friendship is strong enough and things don't work out then you haven't lost anything. life is too short to wonder about these things.

i don't delude myself into being "just friends" with men i'm attracted to. my best friends are dogs and women.

i did once fall in love with a guy that i wasn't initially attracted to, that eventually became a friend (or so i thought). and 12 years later we're still trying to salvage our "friendship". it's not been very successful as every time i see him we hook up. but good luck to you!

You can't stop yourself from falling in love with them. But you dont have to tell them. That will save the friendship.

Why Does Falling In LOVE Ruin a Friendship. The Best Person To "FALL IN LOVE" with is a FRIEND. Always Remember That. If it DOESN'T work out...a true friend will not end the friendship.....if they do, they really weren't a true friend....so it was worth the Risk... If it DOES work out......IT WAS WORTH THE RISK!

Falling in love with your best friend can be benefical. The relationship already has the friendship quality. It may be the path the friendship is supposed to go.
