Hi! I am asking here because I need an advice! I am 16yo and Im a female. Since I was in 6th grade I like my bestfriend who is also female and I known her since I was 4yo. Recently she has confessed me that she also likes girls and that she has a crush on a girl who is 2 years older than us (Ik her only by looks and she has a bf), my bestfriend knows I like girls but she doesn't know I have a crush in her. She has told me that if she were to have a girlfriend it would be in another country bc we live in a a town and country kinda homophobic (Mexico). And I don’t really think I am her type but she’s very kind to me and sometimes I feel this tension between us but idk if is just me, I really would like to have A relationship with her, even if is secret (bc is was just recently that she find out that she liked her, I kinda help her admit it). The problem is I also don't want to ruin the little friendship we have (I think like we don’t talk as we used to do before and we have this distance) and it would be akward if she rejects me,bc we have 2 classes together, but she also has told me that in order for her to understand herself better she would like to have a relationship, but she doesnt feel that connection with anyone. I even asked the tiktok and told me yes, some friends advice me yes and others no. I am scared that I ruin our friendship bc I think she sees me as family, but I would like to at least put a closure to this, bc it has trouble me for a while. Should I confess to her? If yes how? If not, then should I distance myself?pls i need an advice
