I'm in love with a friend and I'll probably never tell them
Why wouldn't you tell them?
He means a lot and I am scared.
You should not hide you feelings from a friend. For all you know your friend might feel the same way.
True but I think it's too late anyways. I might as well get it out of my chest.
If you can you should just be honest. It might be a little weird at first if they don't feel the same way but you can still be friends. It is never too late unless they are married.
