Is it normal to be attracted to a friend?
Yep.Totally normal
Yes, it’s completely normal to feel attracted to a friend. What you do with that feeling depends on your situation and the boundaries you both want to keep.
Absolutely. Friendship can grow into attraction because you already enjoy someone’s company, trust them, and know them well. Sometimes it’s a passing crush; sometimes it sticks around or turns out to be mutual.
Whether to say anything is a separate question. Think about what you want, how it might affect the friendship, and whether either of you is already in a relationship. If you do bring it up, be honest without pressuring them—and be ready to respect their answer. You don’t have to act on every crush for the feeling to be real.
