A male Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I'm in love with my best friend.

..and I'm just really having a hard time to tell her. I've always seen myself as a lowest common denominator, even though everyone says I don't give myself enough credit.

I wrote a note spilling my feelings onto it, and am thinking of giving it to her. I'd tell it to her face, only I lack that backbone so to speak, and knowing me, I'll chicken out with the note.

I'm so confused

Griffo agony auntI did that about one year ago to a girl who was one of my best friends. I wrote a note and spilled my feelings and told her I loved her but I was unlucky and she ran away, and I never saw her again.

I'll let you know the light at the end of the tunnel is great! It was hard as hell but im glad now that i told her. I have no regrets at all, I told the one person in my life that I really really wanted "I loved her".

So what ever you choose to do, and what you expect after going out on a limb and having the balls to say those words is not really what you wanted, ill gladly let you know after a small period of time it's a really really good feeling at the end of the day to have said it, it refreshing. Even if you lose her. because you knever know what happens tomorrow, you could be hit by a bus! you may never have the chance to express your feelings again.

Otherewise if she comes back and you and her become together I will say congratulations in advanced and I wish you both a great life together.

Hi. I once had feelings for my best friend as well. My feelings for him lasted for most of highschool. He knew I loved him like a brother but never in that romantic way. If I got the chance to go back in time I would tell him how I felt and I would have done it in a note. This is because I find when you write things down you can really get across what you want to say and how you're feeling without having to worry about the other persons emotions and reactions.

I reckon you should tell her how you feel. I always think if something happened to that person tomorrow, say she was hit by a car and killed, would you be happy with the way things are right now, this very moment? If you're answer is no then tell her mate.

Honest Answer agony auntIts so funny that now that I am almost 40, and a recent member of Facebook that I am reaquainting with woman that I drooled on in High School. I was so suprised that many of the girls I secretly crushed on actually wanted to date me. They were basically waiting for me to pop the question.

The point is, life is too short.

Tell her face-to-face. Put all your cards on the table and see where life takes you. You only live once. Good luck, and be sure to update us.
