falling for a straight girl

about a month and a half ago, my girlfriend broke up with me, and although the break up was messy and unpleasant it was definitely for the best. when i was dealing with the messy breakup, i began talking to a girl i have a painting class with who just so happened to be breaking up with her boyfriend at the same time. we talked and laughed and commiserated over lost love and became friends. the problem is-i'm totally falling for her!
she's so perfect. she's everything i've ever dreamed about in a girlfriend. she tells me crazy stories in this deep raspy voice and has these big dark blue eyes that sparkle when she laughs. it takes all of the self-control i posses not to grab her and hold her close to me.
this is not good. she is 100% straight, and it would be wrong of me to try to make her have a relationship with me. i can try to stay her friend, but it's so hard to sit and talk with her when all i really want to do is kiss her.
any of you guys ever been in this position? if so,what did you do? and if not, do you have any advice?

" i'm kinda in the same situation. id get to know her a bit better and see if she hints shes a homophobic or not. ease her into the topic. if not and your friendship is strong, id come out to her. then give her a little while to let it sink in and tell her you have a crush on her. i know this will probably be awkward for both of you, but maybe she can help you to sort things out.
Good Luck :) "

" omggg im totally in the same boat! but in my instance is i dont know if sehs straight or not and shes everything i want in a girl, it burns and herts so bad not ahving her in my arms. but always rememeber, there is no such thing as a straight girl, all girls have at least one girl crush in their life time, but dont be forward, its better to have her as a friend then not at all.

" Um so ya it just gets worse and the more you stick around the harder you fall i became best friends with this girl and i just kept fallin more in love but i was lucky cause she turned out to be bi and i didnt know, but if she says shes straight im sure she is if you both talk about your love lives together, I think it would be best to try and put space between you guys even though thats gonna be really hard but there is no reason to torture your heart it might not seem to bad now but just wait till shes got another boyfriend "

" thanks for your input guys. i think im gonna have to follow missblueeyes's advice cos she knows i'm gay and im seeing more and more that she confides in me the way only a girl friend would instead of a girlfriend. dammit, why cant we be programmed not to fall for straight people? "
