Can I tell her?

Okay so, I'm a girl and I REALLY like my best friend,who is also a girl, and more than a best friend should, if you know what I meen... I want to tell her but I can't find th courage! I know she's okay with people being in same-sex couples and stuff but I don't know if she like girls too! I've asked her before and she doesn't know herself! So the big problem is if she doesn't like me in the same way i'm scared she will drift away from me and i really don't want that! If anything I want us to be even closer! Which is hard to imagin because we have known each other for YEARS! She sometimes jokes about us being in a relationship... but I don't think she takes it seriously!

Does she know youre gay?

I wouldnt tell her either way, but it might make a difference on how shell interpret your advances.

I would just be flirty (complimentary etc) and more touchy feely with her, see how she reacts and whether she responds to your advances.

Go drinking and start dancing up on her. See how much she returns the attention. Take it from there. That way if you can sense youre freaking her out, you can always back off without throwing it all out there for her to have to deal with mnroe directly

I already am touchy feely with her and she doesn't seem to mind.. but I'm too young to go out drinking and her dad hardaly lets her out the house...
She doesn't know i like girls... and thats a really big problem ... She can tell that i've been hiding something and has asked me alot about it...

She's your BFF and she doesn't know you like girls? My goodness. Do you two never talk together about cute guys? Usually girls do that. How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?

I say give it a shot - confess that you like girls. You can gauge after you get her reaction to THAT revelation, first.

We're both 14... we once talked about weather we prefer girls or boys... she said she doesn't really know. She then asked me if I'm stright or bi (because I've been out with a boy) but at that min about 3 guys that i really hate and who always call me for every little thing walked over to us and started calling me a les because I was hugging her at the time.... so I didn't end up telling her my answer... becuase i was too busy telling them to shut the **** up....

IF you're really such good friends, you should be able to tell her what you're thinking. If the answer is no, so what? You'll be no worse off than you are now. And at least you'll have an answer.

You may not be gay (i hate that word) perhaps curious and I assume she is also curious. I have a similar situation. I have a friend (F) and we have kissed and she is a terrific kisser. We have never done anything below the waist as we both know it is wrong for our religion. It all started when she drove me home one night and asked me if she could kiss me. I asked her to wait and after a few weeks we were together and kissed. We go to the same school and she is two years older than I am.

I say that you're a very normal person, at a very difficult stage in life, and if I could control one element of your surroundings, it would be that this good friend of yours doesn't trample your feelings or belittle you for having them.

If you tune into Loveshack in 15 years, I'm guessing you'll be married to a guy with or without a child or two on the ground. The feelings and curiosity you're sharing are all just a part of evolving into the future you.

You will be OK no matter the outcome of this.

I think it might be worth a shot to give her a little kiss when you're having one of your touchy-feely sessions.

Why do you get the feeling like she didn't take you seriously? Was it the way she responded to your telling her? Did you communicate to her when you told her that it was serious, or did you do it in more of a joking manner?

When I got home I went on to MSN. She was online and she asked me if I was serious... that's why I think she didn't take it seriously ... and when i said yes she changed the subject...
