I recently went to visit a close friend who I am falling for massively. I worry about telling her and losing her as a friend as we are so close and get on so well. As its long distance and we see each other once a month or so if I should tell her over the phone? I don’t know when I will next see her and I don’t want someone else to ask her out again before I get the chance. That’s happened before and I had to wait. I don’t want her to think I am not interested and to start seeing other people as we are just friends currently.

How old are you both?

I’m 25 and she 23

You’ve actually answered your own question! 🙂 You want to tell her right away so that you don’t lose your shot at dating her, and that’s fine — as long as you can actually follow up your confession with matching behavior. That means, dating her and turning this into something that’s a real, full-fledged, romantic relationship. 😉 I just don’t want you to delude yourself into thinking that just because you confess your feelings, she may not date someone else. Confessing your feelings is one thing, but following up your feelings with behavior is what separates the men from the boys. 😉 If you want to win her over, you still have to do so. Don’t confuse friendship for a romantic relationship that includes conventional dating.

I hope that helps.
