Girl-crushes happen a lot between straight girls and women.</P> <P>She may just be feeling very close to you, it doesn't absolutely mean she's into you in that way, .maybe she has a new influence in her life who talks like that, lots of "I love you" etc ... it can be contagious. </P> <P>If it really makes you feel uncomfortable, you may have to ask her to stop saying those things.</P> <P>How do you think you'd handle it if this was a guy friend of yours talking like to you (one you only liked as a friend?).</P> <P><span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":sunflower:">🌻</span>birdy</P> Tue, 15 Jan 2019 05:45:12 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/young-people/i-think-my-friend-is-a-lesbian-and-has-a-crush-on-me/m-p/386771#M17054 Birdy77 2019-01-15T05:45:12Z
