Search Results: falling for best friend

My name is Elise and I had a falling out with my best friend about two years ago over petty stuff. I did hurt her, but I never intended to cause her as much pain as I did. I have tried apologizing countless times, but I feel that it hasn't helped us in the long run. We finally started interacting again a few months ago but after not seeing each-other for a few months, it feels like we're back at square one where we don't say anything but always seem to stare at one another (she seems to stare more than I do). When we were best friends, there were romantic feelings between each-other and she would talk about being bi or curious. I came out to her and confessed my feelings for her but she didn't act upon that. So although nothing intimate happened between us, that could be a reason why we haven't been able to be friends again. I am planning on going to a fraternity party tonight, and I am hoping she will be there as well. From what I can see, we both miss each-other so I'm thinking about talking to her tonight. If I do, I would say something along the lines of, "Look, I am so sorry for what I did in the past and the harm that I put you through, but I never intended to hurt you as much as I did. I cared about you so much back then, and even though we're not close now, I still do. And I don't know how to put this or how you'll take it but I really want to earn your trust back and try to become friends again because I can't pretend that every time I see you everything is fine because it clearly isn't. Even if we never become as close as we once were, I at least want to try and become decent friends with you again." This would be the first time I'm talking to her in person and apologizing straight to her face so I'm hoping with that, she'll be more willing to talk to me about things and try to mend our friendship. Overall, what do you think of the situation and is talking to her in person something that I should try? Thanks for all the help, I appreciate it!
