It's definitely a tough spot to be in.
Any guy who has found himself in the position of feeling like he is in love with a woman he is friends with knows exactly what I mean.
On the one hand, you don't want to lose her as a friend because it feels good just to be around her.
On the other hand, you can't deny that you want to be more than just her friend.
You might even find yourself thinking about her all of the time, feeling like you are in love with her.
Should you tell her that this is the way that you feel? Probably not.
At least, not right now.
One of the problems that a lot of guys have to deal with, is that they have been given this fantasy idea that all a guy has to do is say that he loves a woman and she'll fall for him.
It's the plot of a LOT of romantic comedies over the years - and in the movies, it always works out well.
In the real world, it doesn't usually work out that well.
A lot of guys who tell their female friend that they are in love with them end up getting that look of confusion or shock from their friend.
The reason being - the timing is NOT right.
Women DO want to hear that a guy loves them, but only when they feel like they really love that guy.
So, if you are going to wind up winning over your female friend, you have to wait until the time is right.
You have to wait until she is feeling the same way and she is wanting to hear you say those words to her.
So, how do you get her to start feeling that way? Really, it all comes down to you deciding to stop acting like just a guy friend and start acting like a guy who is really interested in her.
Of course, there is some risk in that, because you may find that no matter what you do, she just doesn't feel that way about you.
But, you have to be able to handle that risk if you want to get that potential reward of having her fall in love with you.
As much as you might want to tell your female friend that you love her, the reality is that until she feels the same way about you - the timing is going to be off and you are not going to get the response that you want and have been hoping for.
It's not a bad thing to have feelings for a woman you are friends with, but if you really want to have the best chance that she is going to feel the same way about you, you have to decide to stop acting like you want to be just friends and accept the fact that she might not feel that way no matter what you do.
