try speaking to the person, just sit them down and tell them. It's hard, I know, and they may reject the idea and be massive BLEEPS - i won't lie on that. If they don't notice you, id advise you to give up on them. Otherwise you'll just be chasing them for no reason, wilst missing things that are important top you.

I fell inlove with my bestfriend. He (at the time) was dating a girl that treated him like shit. It took him a year to dump her... but he never seemed to see me in the same light as i saw him. Then... when i finally moved on, surrendered, and the love grew into a brotherly love... Well he told me he liked me. I was so infuriated with him. I didn't love him in that manner anymore.
He did pull a hella charming move to get us dating though. During the father daughter dance at my sweet sixteen (while everyone was watching) he cut in. He then waited till the song was over and all eyes were silently peircing into me to ask me to be his. The act was so outraegous. As his bestfriend I would've never denied him anything... so I said yes and locked myself into a relationship i didn't want.
He tried his best to keep me smiling, and i fought all doubts and forced myself to adapt to the situation. In the end i broke up with him. He was severly damaged by the cold turn of events but what else could I do. I was utterly unhappy. Then... when he was gone I realized I missed him. I wanted him in my life. But he hated me, I was the girl who had spit on his heart. I really do love him, both as a friend and as a human being. There's no one in the world who will ever invest the amount of time that we did into our friendship. And theres no other boyfriend who will ever know me as he did.
But i'm not selfish enough to risk hurting him again just to ease my own misery.
I'm so sorry, what a horrible thing that happened! But that's true, my bestfriend - or he was - knew me like noone will ever do. I think it's actually just friends who can know u like that.
