i've been in love with a best friend of mine for a long time. FYI, this is my 1st love, never been in a relationship before, i'm a shy guy when it comes to feeling, and she is now in a long distance relationship with her BF. i have been trying to relay my feeling through showing my affection by caring for her, be there when she needed someone..is this enough for her to figure out that i have feeling for her?? i'm negatively thinking i would never had a chance with her, so i kept that feeling buried inside me. But it is hard to forgetthe love 4 her when she is around u every day.Now i've been thinking of telling her how i feel and wat ever the consequence may be, i can start a new journey in my love life...is this possible?? i can't forget the love i felt for her but i can surely stop it from ever growing in me and start planting a new seed of love to somebody else who will love me..would u agree wit this statement??

Well since its strange situation , you have two choices to tell her and carry on with the consequences , or live with it cuz one day you will surely ask yourself what was going to happen if i told her .

You onoly get to have one first love in your life. it is a memory you will treasure and hold on to. I don;t think you can ever forget a first love because of the impact it has on your life. You can still move on. A part of that first love will move on with you in your heart.

there are many girls around the world which deserved to be love by you. I think first love can never be forgotten since they the ones who give you the 1st feeling of being in love. in your case, you should choose either friendship or lovelife? cause when you tell her how you feel expect the worst case scenario and dont expect things to be good. but you should free yourself man and tell her how you feel so you can move on! ^^

Just chill out man, First one normally would be the hardest to loose if it ever happens, which normally it does, but for what I understand, she is not your girl, just a friend, right? I would give you two options, one, just tell her, it would be hard, I know, but once you release it, talk, talk and let her hear you, doesn't matter how much you stutter and mumble, just let that feeling be displayed. Number two, just don't tell her, but ... stop suffering and just let yourself go, do whatever you feel like doing, either cry, scream, run, sing, sleep, eat, workout, whatever ... At some point you'll feel like "hey, what's next? life goes on !! I'M MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYBODY" Don't, do not, DO-NOT hold on to those feelings and emotions you are carrying, they're not good to just have them stored inside you, they need to get out ... Good luck.

you have to try to tell her first how you feel before you give up and move on. you might regret it in the future if you don't tell her how you feel. who knows, you might have a chance with her. so don't lose hope. but if ever she doesn't feel the same way you can always try to love somebody else and try to be happy.. you can really move on when you finally find someone else to love and who loves you back. i'll share to you something that i learned from my boyfriend who was able to move on successfully from a previous heartache: he told me that you may not be able to forget your first love but can sure live without her. it's really possible to move on.
