I think I just felt love for the first time...?

The problem with only dating people who seem to be our "type" is that the type we are attracted to may be all wrong for us! I think this is what happens when people get married and divorced over and over again (or go through serial monogamous relationships without the benefit of marriage), they keep looking for the same type who is not suited to them at all! By limiting ourselves to "our type" we may be shortchanging ourselves out of a true, deep, meaningful relationship. The happiest couples are also best friends. Getting into a romantic relationship with a friend can end badly and ruin the friendship or it can be the smartest thing we've ever done. We don't really know unless we're willing to take that chance. I've also noticed that the better we get to know someone, the more physically attractive they seem to become to us! I thought my husband was kind goofy looking when we first met but now I think he is a handsome man! Of course, I've put some weight on him over the years, but not too much, just enough to fill him out a little! BTW, we've been married 20 years. So why waste time mooning over someone who doesn't seem to care for you, when your friend is apparently the one you will fall in love with? I say go for it, but proceed slowly! Let her know you have romantic feelings for her, and if she says she doesn't return those feelings then don't push the issue. Stay friends, and time will take care of the rest. She may surprise you and tell you she's interested in you "that way" also. Best wishes!

may be its love. actually loves come in most unusual and unexpected ways. t comes when you least expected it and from a person you never thought. if you grow some feelings, you will also feel for her,
