Q: I was like many of your followers. I was afraid to tell the girl I fell for how I felt. Everything told me we would only ever be friends and I didn't want to ruin our friendship. She even claimed to be straight, even told me about the stuff she did with her bf. Why would I tell a straight girl I loved her? Turns out she lied because she liked me and was afraid I didn't like her. That was 4 years ago and we've been dating for 3 years now. So no one should be afraid to tell a crush how they feel.
