RomanceClass.com Advice
You said she was your best friend... so talk to her.

Ask her the questions you asked me. She certainly knows the answers and I certainly don't. All the things you mentioned are possibilities.

It probably won't be easy to get a completly honest answer from her because whe will be worrying about how you will react to her reply. So the best thing iss for you to be completely honest with her the same as you were to me. She will respond to your honest, open, trusting, caring conversation and will hopefully open herself to you in a similar fashion.

I hope this happens for you!
