Marina, please write a book. I'd buy a babillion copies.

I have a question. I have a longtime friend, a guy, who I'd lost touch with for a while. A couple of years ago, he randomly emailed me to say hello. I never thought he'd remember me, but he did. Over the last couple of years, we'd been in and out of touch, due mostly to schedules and living in 2 different states. I saw him in June for the first time in years, and we were both pretty nervous. In our communication, it's pretty obvious we have something special, even though we have never really come out and said anything. He's living in Italy for the next 2 years pursuing a master's degree, so there's nothing to pursue right now anyway. My question is, is it worth it to take the risk and come out with how I feel, hoping his reciprocation is there, or do I just let the friendship play out, knowing it's not a friendship I want to lose? Just being friends means I will never know, but going for it means I know but I also lose my friend.

Love you!
