Omg I have dealt with this same issue! It sucks because you don’t want to risk loosing the friendship over trying to make it into more. But feelings are feelings and you can’t deny them! I got some advice on this website my friend told me about, it’s free and you can text chat w a relationship expert. Mine was named Jc and he helped me out a lot. The website is called wizpert.com/beta/amforum Hope it helps!
Take care,
Stacy
