I have a work friend of 3 years that I'm pretty close with and I've been thinking almost incessantly about her now. The thought of asking her out wouldnt have crossed my mind 1 or 2 years ago but now im wondering. I usually don't feel nervous about things like this, I've dated friends before, but she's different, I like her, I don't want to mess up what we have by taking it too far. She is genuinely amazing, I can just be me around her. Shes a 'flirty' person but everyone else I work with says she's extra flirty with me and that I should go for it, but I'm not sure. I've got a few more weeks until I see her so I've got time to think. But I've just never felt this way about someone before. I feel like a child, I'm only 19 but I'd say I'm decently mature. This is genuinely the only decision I've had to make as of late that I've struggled with. Kind of a vent post, I've told some friends this already but I need to get it off my chest.
