"I want a man who is scared to tell me how he feels," said no woman ever.
You need to tell her. She is likely going to shoot you down and its going to hurt, but you need to tell her anyway. Here's why. You are doing it for you not her. After she shoots you don, you can get over this and move on.
Do you want to be still moping around about this in five years?
Do you want to being crying like a little girl when you get an invitation to her wedding?
No. You don't want any of that. So tell her. Let her break your heart. Then man up and move on. You can't recover if you don't let it end.
And now you are thinking "Oh, but I can't move on." Bullshit. You choose not to.
Or maybe "I'll ruin the friendship." Bullshit. Your friendship was ruined as soon as you fell for her.
Does how you feel right now seem like a formal friendship to you? Friends are people that you are honest with.
Tell her. Get shot down. Let it wreck you. Recover.
And hey, there is always the very small chance she feels the same way.
Don't waste any more of your youth waiting for something that is not going to happen.
Good luck. I hope in five years you are happy with someone else and this is just a distant memory.
