I have a girlfriend that I hang out with along with a group of friends. We’ve gone out just the two of us, but it was platonic at the time. But lately, things have been changing.

I started feeling attracted to her and started having feelings, which complicates things.

We’re close friends and we (the group) hang out all the time. I think she doesn’t have feelings for me (friend zone), but I want to tell her how I feel before it goes out of hand and I go pussy around her.

How do I tell her how I feel and how do I react (in the moment and in the future) if she says no?
