I’m in love with my best friend. We are both girls. I have been in love with her for a long time now, but I have a boyfriend. I’ve been dating him for over a year, and met her after. I have never felt this way about anyone before, or another girl. I don’t know what to do. Today she told me that she wasn’t completely straight, and that she thinks she’s going to try for girls because so many men have screwed her over recently. We are both 22 years old, so this isn’t a stupid middle school crush. We are about to graduate from college in one week, and I am so afraid to lose her. She always tells me I am her soul mate and that she loves me, but now that she is going to try and date girls, that meaning has changed. How can I be what she considers her soul mate and also be a girl, when she’s looking for another girl to “be with”. I want to tell her how I feel, but I am so scared she does not see me in that way. I need her in my life. But if she is seriously trying to date women, I would be so hurt to see her with another besides me. Somebody please help me. I know people will say just to tell her, but I need to know how without getting crushed and losing her.
