Here's the deal. I'm a straight girl I've realised recently that I really like my gay bestfriend, it might even be love, I'm not sure. I know that I've felt this way about him for a while (about 5 months) but at first I just shrugged it off and was like 'you just love him as a friend' but now I really can't deny the way I feel.
I know there's nothing I can do to change him, and I wouldn't want to, I just need some advice on how to get over him and make it so it doesn't hurt every time he hugs me or holds my hand, knowing that it can never be anything more. I've tried avoiding him but I can't because he's always there and if I try not talking to him he just cuddles me and asks me if everything's okay. I haven't told any of my other friends about this and I don't really want to.
Help? Please?
