If she's your best friend, I'm sure she's aware of your involvement with the socialist alliance. Good luck!

I'd just tell her. It might cause some awkwardness for a while if she's not interested but chances are it will smooth out.

I'm so with babydoll on this... I think its a bad idea. Girls say we like honesty and that kind of stuff but this would kill the friendship...start small and ask her things... dont dare tell her until uve sussed out if she feels the same way... then go from there.
i agree...

take a chance,

wait for a romantic and close moment, don't talk too much. kiss her
action speaks for it self
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!
do not do this!!!!!!!!!!!
my best friend is a guy and if he suddenly outta the blue lent over n kissed me while we were talking or something, it would make it so. much. worse.

easy way (even tho as a girl, im not to keen on it) is tell her in an sms.

of course, last time a guy did that to me i got really mad cos it is wuss way out... however in ur case it might b the best way- i know if i started fallin 4 troy i would be totally stuffed, i think id be to scared/embarrassed to tell him i liked him... so sms may sorta hint at somethin which can then be brought up in convo later.. instead of droppin a huge shock out of the blue on her.

if you have a close guy friend who likes the same girl, and you like the sme girl, and your close to this girl. just ask her to be your fuckbuddy!! :D

seriously though, i was kinda in the same situation as you. i let him have all the time he wanted, i backed off for the whole time. but then when he said that he did'nt like her anymore, i told the girl that i liked her. the whole point that i'm raising is give subtle hints, and be patient with relationship issues. like someone said, it could just be a phase, but it might last. in this case, go for it, after giving hints of how you feel about her.

And really, what do you have to lose?
You can always make new friends

You lose a best friend? I dunno about you, but I sure don't make best friends 24/7.

Though, if she really is your best friend, the relationship shouldn't be too awkward after a couple of days, if she rejects you. :p

Are you kidding? Every instance I've known where a friend has rejected the advances of another friend has become SO awkward between them.

Unless you think or know that there is a very strong possibility that this girl returns your affections, I wouldn't risk it.

Besides, unless she is the girl you are going to marry, chancers are that when you break up, the friendship would be over anyway. If you want the friendship to last, then don't tell her.

I fell for my best friend too.

Talked to her about the situation between us and where we were headed in the future. Had a long talk and even though I wasn't the one, we're still best friends and become even closer.

So honesty does some good once in while. If she's your best friend, she might've picked up on your thoughts already...

It could make things pretty weird if she turns you down but then again, if you stay as only her friend, you would feel even worse when gets a bf and you get left in the background thinking "what if"
