I would like your opinions on this one and if possible some advice you could give...

I am in love with a close friend of mine. We are always together every time and we always talk about topics related to crushes and love. I've loved her for already 5-6 months and every time I try to forget my feelings for her, it just comes back whenever we see each other.

I'm having a hard time controlling myself when around her, coz I am afraid that I might tell her how I feel and do things or gestures that might reveal my true feelings. It's hard because she is younger than me and she just look so adorable and fragile that gives me the feeling of protecting her from everything.

I am thankful that she doesn't know how I feel about her, but that's the problem, she always talks to me about her crushes and the guys that had a crush on her and how she feels about them. It's painful for me to hear it, but I just smile and give her advice...

Here's the big problem. . .

my friend is a girl and I am also a girl, but I am not lesbian.

Any opinions on how to handle this please.....

tnx.

A female reader, aunt honesty Ireland +, writes (30 November 2011):

aunt honesty agony auntAre you sure it is a sexual attraction you feel towards her and not just a loving and protective one? I mean think about it, do you see yourself actually wanting to be with this girl, in a relationship with her, and having a sexual relationship with her?

Sometimes we just cannot help how we feel about someone, and you cannot help who you fall for in life. I guess you just need to try and move forward from these feelings. It is obvious that she is interested in men not woman so I think you just need to accept this. Distance yourself from her for a while until you get over her, accept that it is never going to happen, I guess that is all you can really do.
