I'm in love with my best friend. It's not the typical "friend zone" thing. We've known each other since high school, at first we were close friends. I developed feelingsfor him and he admitted that he'd had a crush on me for 2 years. We decided to try dating, not much changed except we grew closer. He was even my senior prom date. Later that summer, he left for a vacation. He was gone for about 2 weeks. I being the complete piece of shit that I am, got drunk and cheated on him at a party. He found out and we stopped talking for 3 years. We've since grown over it and have started talking again. The feelings have come flooding back. We are as close as ever, and I came to crushing realization that I still hopelessly love him. Instead of ruining our friendship again I need to swallow my feelings. I've come to accept that to have him I life is more important, then the "what ifs".
