"do you love me?"

Ya I was facing a similar situation a couple of months ago.Well there was a junior in ma school.She ws very friendly with me and I had always considered as my little sister.One day while I was chatting with her online she just said she loves me and that she had a crush on me for a long time. I was really taken aback and was very surprised too.I had never considered her in that manner so I really didn't knew what to answer. It was really difficult situation for me.I told her that i had considered her as my little sis and well hopefully she understood that.I really felt sad because she was such a wonderful person but I had never seen her in such a way. Well she still remains a very good friend of mine..
