    Okay, so I recently came out to a close friend of mine who I know is also bisexual, and she was very supportive and helpful about it. She's a great friend, and currently the only person I am out to. The thing is, a small part of the reason I came out to her (other than that I knew she would totally understand and be supportive) is that I am also attracted to her, and I think I have been for a while.

    My question is, would it be too overwhelming to tell her my feelings when I just recently came out to her? If I tell her and she doesn't feel the same way, will it make our friendship awkward? I should also note that I haven't been in a relationship in a really long time, and I've never been with another girl. But I could really see this becoming a relationship, i'm just scared to tell her.

    Any thoughts??

    You could send her signals. You don't have to go and tell her that you like her, you might just want to flirt a little and see how she reacts.
    If she reacts in a good way and flirts with you as well, you might want to keep that going and hint your feelings and then tell her.
