I think my friend may like me.

[TheForecast]

I'm so confused. My friend, who I've been friend's with for a very long time, I has recently started saying how much she loves me. She has never spoken to me in this manner before. I believe she just recently broke up with her boyfriend. Now she keeps talking about how much she loves me. Every text to me has hearts on it. A few nights ago I had a dream where me and her kissed. I had never thought about her romantically before that. And then the next few days she started doing the whole I love you thing. Now I'm aware it's possible that she is just being nice, but I'm serious when I say this has NEVER happened before. It was always: "I appreciate you buddy." Now it's: "Have I told you how much I love you?" The other day at school we started staring at each other and my heart started beating so fast. I think I like her but I'm the worst at reading signals. Bottom line: I don't want to ruin our friendship. But I feel very strongly about her and I don't know what to do.

She may be channeling her feelings after
her breakup with trying to get closer to u
in a way for her to get over it. She may
really love u but b careful that u don't get
too attached to her cause she may get back
with her b/f. I would continue to b her friend
and b there for her but don't get hurt.

It's time for one of those serious friend to friend talks that establish your protective boundaries and concerns, and also address hers.

You can either jump for the opportunity or you can wait it out and see if she's interested when she's gone through her mourning period after a breakup, or pass on her altogether.

What do you wanna do?

I agree. I'd sit down with her whennyour alone and talk about this. Just ask her how she means. I mean it's cool she loves you, there's no better feeling knowing someone loves you. But there's different kinds of love

And if she loves you one way and you love her another way and you guys getbyour wires crossed it can get even more confusing. So it's time for a 1:1 convo and just aks bro

This is good advice. Us boys are useless at these things. Sometimes we literally just need to ask the obvious and get it spelled out to us. She may mot know herself. Don't rush anything. Just enjoy the relationship

I think like any kinda relationship. Even your best bros, you got a talk sometimes right?
So just talk....

[FPFanatic]

I agree with the people above. Us guys are often terrible at getting hints/reading signals haha. Just talk to her about it

[Microcosm]

Imagine reacting to a perceived signal and then getting rejected. It's awkward man, trust me. Because of this, it is probably best to, as others have said above, just talk to her about it.
