I am a 38 year old woman, mother and also recently separated from my husband of 12 years. I have a female friend who I have known for a long time, almost 20 years who is openly gay. I've always felt drawn to her and fascinated by her, but in the last year I have started to wonder if these feelings are more than just friends. I have seen her on a "date" yesterday and come away from there just feeling like I am completely in love with her. I am confused and don't know what to do/say or how to act. I'm pretty sure she knows how I feel but I have no way of knowing what that means..if anything. Any advice would be so appreciated. Thank you.
In these situations the best way to go about it is to be honest with her. Tell her how you feel and you can both go from there. Good luck!
