    This has probably been spoke about over and over but here goes

    A few months ago a person returned from a long period away that i didn't now very well, i think in 6 years we spoke about 4 or 5 sentences to each other. anyway as soon as she came back we became close after I helped her out with a few things. now we text and speak almost every day and do quite a bit together like gym walks etc. we've also got an awful lot in common and in general have a great time together. thing is im starting to fall for her and I don't know if she feels the same. shes 3.5 years older than me but thats not really a concern. I don't know if saying something will screw up the fact that were close now. but its really starting to get to me and its staying in my head late at night. I usually always have women come to me, i was just lucky that way i suppose. please offer some advice anything is better than nothing.

    Ye've clearly gotten very close very quickly. Is there any indication how she feels for you?

    If you think she won't shoot you down, I'd say go for it and tell her how you feel! :)

    Your best off just telling her how you feel, hopefully it will be reciprocated , even if not your feelings will likely die away over time once you have got it out of your system

    Not sure to be honest. I spoke to a mutual friend and was told that she told when drunk how much she liked me and how much time for me she had bu wouldn't tell if she fancied me or not when asked she just giggled away. its hard because i don't want it to be awkward but a the same time its stuck in my head everyday!!

    maybe it's "infatuation" confused with "falling for someone". Ride it out and do nothing for now.........

    Go for it. If you're that good friends it's not going to matter. You'll maybe need a small bit of time on your own to lick your wounds but after that things will pick up as usual and you'll know where you stand. If it's only since July then it's a good point now. don't let it go on too long. This kind of thing is an occupational hazzard for ladies. to be honest it'll add to your friendship in the end.
