writes:I'll try and make this short! Basically I have been in love with a very close friend of mine for around 4/5 years (another girl). She knows I'm gay and she says she's straight. We went to the same school together and we have been best friends for a long time. Unfortunately recently we have kind of lost touch as we go to separate universities. We used to be very physically close and people used to say we were like a couple and things. We cuddled like a couple would, not friends. I haven't spoken to her in ages now and I'm not sure if our friendship will ever be the same - I guess my question is, shall I tell her that I've loved her for so long? I feel like there is no friendship to ruin anymore but I'm worried I'd hurt her feelings or f*ck it up forever. Sorry, thanks, x

 My suggestion would be to reconnect first. She likely doesn't reciprocate your feelings on the same level. I'm sure that she loves you, but more likely in a sisterly way. It would be incredibly awkward for someone who isn't in regular contact to come out and confess such love.
The better a friend she is, the less likely it is to ruin your friendship, and who knows, she may have discovered similar feelings in the time you've been out of contact.
Yup, I think you should get back in touch with her and find out what's happening in her life. Go from there.
