Hey guys, I'm having a bit of a dillemma... and as everyone should i have turned to the random strangers of an online board to assist me.
Theres this girl (isn't there always?) at my school. I met her in year 8 (3 years ago) and since then she has grown to become my best friend. She is absolutely stunningly beautiful, but as a friend i never really thought of her in that kinda way. When i met her, and for 2 years after that, she was in a long term relationship, but earlier this year they broke up. And as everyone knows people change once theure single, and i realized that she was (and is) everything i had ever wanted in a girlfriend, but the problem is i am stranded in a 'best friend' relationship with her. She's had a few flings with guys from work and stuff and as her best friend she talks to me about them and whenever she does its like a dagger in the chest for me, but i have to pretend like everythings dandy because (even though she's incredibly intelligent and mature) i know it would most likely ruin our friendship (by no fault of hers or mine... things just happen that way).
It really sucks, i cant tell her about it and i cant go on suffering in silence. I can either lose my best friend, or carry a massive burden around on my shoulders. I really need help here, any input is welcome (as long as its not retarted (no offense if you are retarted)).
Thanks guys.
