My best friend and I are exes and I still love her and I think she still loves me but we are such great friends I don't want to mess that up. But I feel I have to let her know my feeling although I am sure she does know, I just don't want things to be weird. How should I go about this?
[continue]. How would you feel if a guy asked her out today and she said yes? Would you kick yourself for not going after her first? Would be a bit saddened, but accept it as is? - You need to really sit down and reflect on this. Don't let her get away if she means so much to you. Besides how long have you been best-friends for?
I would feel bad if she went out with another man, your right, we have been friends from 6th grade, I think that makes it a little harder honestly, but I will say something, thanks. - 9 months ago
Having you ever heard of those "marriage" pacts? - Yes, that one where you say "if you don't find someone in X years, we should marry each other". I know it sounds really corny. But that is kinda a good way to hint that you two should consider being together. See her reaction and see what she says. I remember this kinda of thing happened on Friend's between Ross and Rachel (HAHAH, I know its TV, but seriously people do this all the time --- especially best friends. ). Why did you break up in the first place? Perhaps those details can help clarify whether it is a good idea to make another attempt at this relationship. Based on you have said. I can only think of one thing: some other girl/guy got between you two. If you can provide more info. It maybe easier to assess the situation. I've always been of the belief that the best relationships come out of best friends. First, always.
Well other people where in between us, but I don't think that effects much, basically she moved but she may move back, can you answer more based on that information? - 9 months ago

Ask yourself this: are you willing to take a chance to tell her you love her and perhaps accept the consequences that this will 'change' the friendship you two have? You seem to be having on foot in the 'friends' side an another in the relationship side. This is an honest question you need to ask yourself - everything comes with risk. 'love' changes everything between people it can either strengthen the bond you have now or throw a spin ball into your present status as 'friends'. - 9 months ago

If she is involved with someone keep your ass out. My girls ex seems to be kinda clingy to her even 3 years after they've dated. It's annoying. If so get lost. But if she's not involved then you should say something. There is no reason to "stay good friends" because 10-15 years from now you will both be married and the great friend you wanted to keep and not risk losing will be lost anyway. Opposite sex friendships are doomed
So you and your best friend had something before, broke it off, but you two still have feelings for one another. Hm. Well, like Trickstir said, see what that issue was that broke you two up and iron it out because we all know that if you broke up once, you'll break up again. Issues just don't disappear, they stay there, because that's why you two broke up. Settled issues result in -Compromise- (<--- Very important word there in relationships). Nevertheless, my truthful opinion is that you don't tell her anything. Yep, I said it, don't tell her SQUAT!
Instead, SHOW her how you feel about her. Do sweet things for her you know. May be craft up some kind of card for her (a la construction paper and a picture of you two together, make it cute, something she'd keep) and give it to her. (Women like when you spend time on a gift for them instead of money :D ) Nevertheless, Start showing her that you have feelings for her instead of telling her. Words don't mean squat to another person if there's no proof to back it up, you know? Like they say, Actions speak louder than words. Why not try that out? I'm sure it'd be hard, but hey, relationships are supposed to be fun and challenging right? So go out and make her feel special!
Well because you both are ex's you at least know that both of you have had chemistry before, don't keep your feelings bottled up or it might be too late to express anything just call her strike up a conversation and ease into the subject about how you feel for her. The awkwardness feeling might come up but that's the risk about it, you willing to take it? Well good luck man

Don't call anymore. You've already made the effort. If she wants to talk to you, she'll let you know. Until then, all you can do is either wait for her to come around, or just move on.
