I (26M) have had really strong feelings for my friend(25F) of 7 years.
Initially I was just being a supportive friend to her during her breakup for quite some time.
I developed feelings for her after she started sending me some signals but I thought that I should not react to them as she is just over a breakup.
Also,She is a really bright student preparing to move to another country and I didnt want to do anything that could ever damage her career as she had already done phenomenally well in part 1 of her foreign exam..So i didnt tell her anything from my side.
One year later she even told me that she is willing to stay back in my country if she found "someone who really liked her" here.I convinced her not to do that as relationships are volatile but career is a constant.
She left the country recently.
I struggled with my countrys exams and finally cleared them.
I still have strong feelings for her still..I cannot sleep for a day without having nightmares about her. I told her that I will be moving to her country as soon as I am done with my education here for 3 years and she was very supportive.
I dont know what to do next and I am feeling extremely insecure.
Do I just tell her about my feelings?
What if she finds someone there and I move to that country in vain?
TL;DR
I have fallen deeply in love with a friend who has moved out of the country.
I want to tell her about my feelings but I need advice.
