There's a girl and we've been friends for about 6 months now, and recently we've been talking a lot, like every day, and I'm starting to have some pretty strong feelings for her. I'm just not sure the best way to tell her. I also have a little time, she's 4 hours away now but goes back to school in 6 weeks, which is less than an hour away. But she is sending me some pretty strong signals that she likes me too. Anyway, I've just never really had that conversation with a friend before and not exactly sure the best way to do it. What is the best way to tell her how I feel/ask if she feels the same way? Specifics would be helpful, thanks!
If you read that, and really do believe that she DOES like you, TELL HER!
There are 2 major options you can go about to solve this problem:
1. Be blunt about it.
2. Be shy about it.
I highly suggest being blunt about it, and either asking her if she's into you too, or simply asking her out yourself. Girls like when guys show confidence, and there's no better way to show you're confident than walking up to a girl and asking her out!
Or, you can go the other route and be shy about it, possibly doing nothing to show her you're interested in her. Sometimes, people who use this method drop subtle hints such as smiling [which is common i and doesn't always show you're into a person] or having a friend ask if she's into you [this only shows that you're too shy to do it yourself]. This option is really kind of stupid, and is used all too much...
As I always say:
Life is WAY too short to not take chances and risks once in a while. Why sit around wondering what could've been, what would've been and what should've been, when you can answer all of those questions and then some by being honest and telling a girl how you really feel about her?
As far as the long distance thing goes, go for it. My boyfriend lives 24 hours away, and getting together is the best recent decision I have made.

If you like her and she likes you then why not hold off until you two are closer in distant? Not only would it be less stressful, but much easier to see each other on a regular basis. If you want to tell her that you like her then start off the conversation something along the lines of "Hey, You know I've been wanting to tell you something for awhile now etc" or "There is something I wanted to talk about with you, lately I've been thinking a lot about you etc" It's up too you about dating her now but I think you should wait until she returns back to school.
