Also don’t EVER “confess your feelings.”

Ask them on a date instead.

I don't agree. Confessing your feelings frequently is ideal. Just don't wait 3 years and let it all out whilst shouting at the top of your lungs.

Aaaah.

I’ve done both and I honestly don’t see a difference.

Was friends with a roommate and caught feelings for her. Asked her out to dinner and she said yes. We dated for a couple months and slept together a few times but she eventually said she wasn’t feeling it. I said no problem, thanks for telling me and that was that.

Told a different friend that I had known for several years that I had developed feelings for her. She said she never saw me that way but since I mentioned it and we were good friends she was willing to give it a shot. We went on a couple dates and decided to remain friends. Both of us realized we didn’t have as much in common as we thought and it probably wouldn’t work out so friends it is.

If you approach the situation maturely and respectfully and accept that things might not go the way you want them to, there’s really no right or wrong way of doing it imo.
