Is it worth it?





At the beginning of this school year, I had to move away from my school, as I was moving to a different country. I was really upset because my best friend (who is a girl) and I would be apart. A few months before I left, I started having feelings for my friend, but I never did or said anything about this to her, or to any of her friends. I think a few of my friends figured it out, but none of them actually said anything, because they knew what a tough time I was going through. Since I moved away, my best friend and I have kept in touch with each other, calling each other, sending emails, having chat messages, etc. For these coming summer holidays, I am going to spend the entire time in Michigan (where I used to live). I couldn't be happier because it means I get to meet my friend, but I still have feelings for her, and I don't know what to do about them anymore. Please help me by giving me any advice that you can! Should I tell her what I feel? Should I keep it secret? How will she react? Is it worth it if I am only going for a few months? PLEASE HELP ME!!

Hello Sean,


Wow, it sounds like you and this girl go way back! I don't think it is worth it for you to ask her out or anything like that because you are only going to see her for a few months, and then it will become a long distance relationship, granted she says yes to you. If she doesn't say yes, then your friendship could become weird and awkward, and the little time you do have together will be spent in weird situations. If you really want it to work with her, then ask her what she thinks about a long distance relationship. If she doesn't mind it, then you can ask her, and hope that she says yes. another thing to note is whether she already likes someone, or has a boyfriend. If she does already have a boyfriend, then as her best friend, you should be happy for her, and not want to ruin her relationship with that person. Overall, I think it is best if you don't ask her out, or tell her about your feelings. Good luck in whatever decision you make.


Lots of love

Your Agony Aunt.
