I've been in love with this girl for almost four and a half years now. I know I'm in love because I don't like to dream anymore because reality is so much better. The weird part is that even though she has shaid she has feelings for me, she is in a relationship with a dude about 6 states away (and I live 6 MILES away,) and she doesn't really talk to me anymore, with the exception of when she needs to ask me a question. Not only am I in love with her, she's also my best friend. I feel like I'm losing her and we're slowly falling apart, turning into another face in her past. I do not want that to happen. If anybody has any advice, please help. Thank you.

Until next time...

 well there comes to a point in everybody's  life where when somebody wants something they have to try their hardest to go get it what you need to do is take the first step and maybe call her or approach her in the hallway and tell her how you feel more then likely she start to think how would it be if you to were together and who knows she might try and take a shot I know Im a girl

 Personally, I've always lived for love- true love... and I'd like to assume thats what the majority of females venture out for and hope to attain some day. If its true love, you'll never give up on her.. and you won't let things fade, though you'll want her happy whatever decision she makes. If I were you, a boy, I'd turn my feelings into verbal actions or something of the like... you can't let such a strong emotion stay caged up like that; put it to use. speak from your heart... get the courage. I know, easier said than done, but actions are louder than words (or thoughts, in this case.)


 


 If she is in-love with this guy states away, understand that she'll be bent/torn if she does have feelings for you. you are closer, you can touch her, see her, talk to her in person; all pluses. BUT distance does make the heart grow stronger, and when love is real, distance doesn't entirely matter.


 


 better to try and not get then to sit back and never know.... don't be afraid of rejection. life happens.

Ok I think u shud jus talk to her face to face and tell her how you feel so she can start to think about it.
She might just like you a lot and doesn't know your the right person for her at the moment .
She probably feels as if being with you might be a great thing for you two since she's your best friend but she might also be afraid that if you do go out and then break up your friendship might be ruined .
Trust me I'm going through that right now. But the opposite situation since im a girl

i can honestly agree with that


sometimes us girls instead of going for what we know is right would leave it so we wouldnt mess up the connection we have with them


most of us go for the people that hurt us more then show they care about us

She can be confused and that is why she is pushing you away. She feels guilty that she is taken yet she has feelings for you. Her boyfriend is trusting her to remain faithful in her love for him and yet her heart is telling her it feels for you as well as her boyfriend. You need to gather your courage and decide what you will say to her and go to her and tell her. Tell your friend that you love her, tell her everything about it. I would advise not to exaggerate or say anything overly dramatic. But be honest, tell her you love her, how long you've loved her, when you knew you loved her, what you love about her, what you want from her (i.e. a relationship leading to a future with her), but also explain to her that you understand she has a boyfriend that is away and that you do not mean to hurt her by telling her your feelings, you just want to know if maybe you have a chance with her.



If she seems hesitant or unsure, ask her just to try it. She can ask her boyfriend to take a break from them which will make her single (and she will not feel as if she is betraying her boyfriend) and you can date her. You can slowly show her that you love her. Note I said "slowly", do not go all extravagant and shower her with tons of love and gifts and the such. Take it slow because she will most likely be unsure and maybe even afraid. Just show her you love her and want a relationship with her.



The worst that can happen is that she rejects you. Yes that will hurt, but it would be best if you told her and took a chance rather then say nothing and then you would regret that decision for the rest of your life. Besides, even if she rejects you, you can always try again. Look at Johnny Cash. He proposed to June Carter (his second wife) multiple times for months. He finally proposed again during one of their performances and she finally said "yes". But Cash worked for her, and he never gave up. So just because she says "no" does not mean you can't try again later.



Good luck.

Just continue to be her best friend. In the end, if it is meant to be...it will happen.  Good things come to those who wait.  Im sure you have heard that plenty of times.  But it is true.  Besides even if you dont get the chance to become a couple....you will always be her best friend.  So keep in touch with her, call her, go hang out with her,......if the other guy is so far away....and you are close...take advantage of that.  Dont sit and wait for her to call or come over....you go to her.   Good luck with it all ....make sure to update here so we know what is going on.  I love good love stories...and I think this will turn out great!

love is extremely stupid...first think if you are a better man than the other guy.  If you belive tat you can truly make her happier and better than the other guy can then go for her.  Dont mix up love with lust...if she knows that you "love" her and she does nothing about it then she is not worth your pain and suffering.  Plus, if you truly love her you'll wait... eventually her boyfriend is goin to mess up along the way and that's when you move in because you're her best friend and you can comfort her and take away her pain and replace it with your love.  BEst of luck to you!!!!
