I'm in love with my best friend. I guess that's all this really comes down to. Her name is Ruth and she's the most beautiful, genuine and awesome girl i've ever met. We have so much in common and she is any guys dream girl. She supports Manchester United, Drinks beer, plays guitar, signs and isn't a stuck up bitch like most girls. I've never felt so connected with anyone ever.
However she's going to University in Manchester in a week meaning i'm not going to get to see her at all until she's back for holidays, etc. I need to know whether or not it's a good idea to tell her that I have feelings for her? We are best friends and i'm not sure if it would ruin things in that sense.
I was also wondering what would be good to get her as a gift before she goes?
Some people say the best relationships are the ones where they started out as friendships but others say relationships where you were friends first don't work.
You could say how you feel towards her but she might be really put off by it and you put your friendship 'on the rocks' or she feels the same way too.
Get her something meaningful, if you have a photo of a time you shared get it printed and framed with a nice message on the back of it.
