If I realized I was falling for my bestie, I'd probably just start singing a romantic ballad and doing some silly dance moves. It'll either make me feel better or crack everyone else up!

If I realized I was falling in love with my best friend, I'd probably try to talk about it and figure out how we both feel. If there's a spark of something special between us, then why not give it a shot? Regardless, our friendship should remain intact regardless of what happens.

IDK tbh, I'm not into the whole romance thing. Love is kinda oppressive & heteronormative so it's probably best if nothing develops and we just stay friends.

I'd prob just roll my eyes, say something sarcastic like "uhhh you must've bumped your head" and then make some kinda dumb joke to rub it in more.

If I realized I was falling in love with my best friend, then the tough decision for me would be whether to stay friends or take a leap of faith and attempt something romantic. That is why it's important to evaluate if this relationship move could truly benefit both parties, especially since things can get complicated in friendships when romance enters the mix. At the end of the day though, you need to decide what works best for your mental health and well-being; don't let yourself succumb to fear as it often leads us astray from our true desires.

I'd take it slow. I'm smart enough to know that friendship is precious and strong relationships don't just magically appear overnight. Instead of wallowing in the feeling, I would focus on understanding myself better and become more self-aware so that if things do progress between us, we can make informed decisions instead of being blindsided by emotion.

If you realized you were falling in love with your best friend, I would suggest starting by discussing it with them. Having an honest conversation is a great way to not only express your feelings, but also gain a better understanding of their thoughts and feelings. If both of you have positive vibes towards each other then that's good! It might be worth considering how the relationship could grow & develop – if both parties are willing for it to do so - & what challenges or potential obstacles may arise as the relationship progresses (for example; changes in dynamics within other friendships). Nevertheless, whatever your decision is ensure that it correlates with what makes YOU feel most comfortable and safe.

If I realised that I was falling in love with my best friend, I'd take some time to reflect on how our relationship has developed over the years. If it feels right and both parties are comfortable, then there's no reason why we couldn't pursue a romantic relationship - but either way, nothing should interfere with the great friendship we already have.

If I realized that I was falling in love with my best friend, I would pray to God and ask for His guidance. Then, once He had revealed what action I should take, if any, then it is up to me to do my very best according to His will.

If I realized I was falling in love with my best friend, then it would be important to take a moment and consider all of the potential implications such a relationship could have on our friendship. Of course romantic feelings put at risk the bond that we've built over time as friends, so if this realization is followed by great hesitation that's totally understandable. As someone who has experienced life for quite some time now, however, what comes to mind first is considering how blessedly unique an opportunity being in love with your best friend can be -- there may already be established trust between you two because of your strong platonic connection thus far; you likely share many common interests due to being close friends; and part of who each other are is known which could potentially make any transition from friendship into romance much easier than starting something new. What matters most though regardless of whether or not one chooses down this path or opt against doing so -remains staying true to yourself exchange open communication about these recently cultivated feeling

If I realized I was falling in love with my BFF, then I'd probs keep it a secret and just enjoy their company as platonic friends. That's what works best for me, living at home with my fam & having to handle school/gaming all day long 😅

That's a tough situation! I mean, even though my feelings may be strong for my best friend, it doesn't change the fact that I'm already happily married with two kids. That being said, if this ever happened to me, after some soul searching and weighing out all of my options carefully, I'd probably just try to keep things platonic between us while making sure we don't get too close emotionally - at least not any closer than what is considered healthy for our friendship. Ultimately tho, whatever decision I make would come down to what would be best for everyone in the end 🤔

If I realized I was falling in love with my best friend, the first thing I'd do is take a deep breath and give myself some time to really think about it. What does my heart tell me? Then, if those feelings are real, honest, and true then its important that talk to him/her – for the sake of both our friendships! It will be hard but worth it to make sure we're both on the same page when it comes to where this relationship stands. Remind yourself during this process you've got friends who have your back no matter what happens - they care about your happiness too so don't forget them either!

If I realized I was fallin' for my best friend, the first thing I'd do is take a big deep breath and ask myself if it's really love or just familiarity. Then Id probably weigh out all the pros & cons, cos ya know, life isn't always simple like that! If it feels right then there's no harm in lettin' me heart decide - gotta go with what makes u happy afterall!

If such a situation were to arise, I would encourage you to take some time for yourself and reflect on how you truly feel. First, it's important that both of you recognize the friendship before exploring any potential romantic feelings. Talk with your friend about what is happening while being true to yourself as well as sensitive towards them—it may be an awkward conversation but it must happen in order for each of you to understand where the other stands. This will also help determine if there is potential for further exploration into these new feelings without causing irreparable harm to your relationship. Ultimately, only then can more clarity form around what might come out of this experience; do remember whatever happens (or doesn't) should be respected and honored from both sides.

If I realized I was falling in love with my best friend, then first and foremost I would take a step back to really evaluate the situation. Once that's done, it'll be important for me to let them know how I feel if there are strong feelings on both sides; however, out of respect for our friendship and loyalty to my husband, boundaries must stay firmly in place.
