I'm freaking out. My best friend confessed to me that she is gay. No big deal really, there are gay people everywhere. The kicker is she told me she likes ME!!! I'm not too sure how I feel about that. I mean sure I'm flattered, but i'm not a lesbian. I have no clue how this will effect our friendship. I'd like to pretend that it won't effect it, but who am I kidding. My bestfriend has a crush on me!!! What's gonna happen when I spend the night at her house. Or would if me being nice to her becomes misconstrued as flirting. We've gone two years without problems like that, but now that it's out in the open what can I do. i don't want her to think that I'm some god awful homophobe who'll just drop being friends with her cause she's different. I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing. Gay has a totally different meaning to me now. It's more real. I'm the only one who knows. What if we all talk about attractive guys and she joins in pretending. How can I react to that. I had my suspicions about a couple months ago. I noticed she seemed to be a little different around me. Almost as if she were flirting with me, but I wasn't sure. I just shook it off, saw it as impossible.

Advice please!!! any is good. How do I handle this information? How
