Hello there ! First of, so you consider this friend "special", but does she feel the same about you ? Then, How well do you know her ? What is her opinion on (assuming you're a girl...) the LGBT community ? These are questions you need answers to before you can consider saying anything. Okay now, I personally never had the guts to tell a straight girl that I had feelings for her (happened twice, thank God it's over...) so I get where you come from, you think that she probably be the sweetest about it and tell you that it won't change a thing but that it will change eventually subconsciously... Thing is, I can't guarantee that it will or won't, specially since I don't know the both of you. But here's what you could do, after you make sure to do the previous stuffs. Make sure that you talk to her one on one. Then, maybe ask her to let you talk, and react afterwards because it's something you need to get off your chest without interruptions. Then you can say that, well, you're afraid that you might regret it later for the reasons you'll name, but then again, if you don't do it, you'll just keep on suffering about it. You could tell her that you're sorry, you couldn't help it and that if she needs time to process, you'll be happy to give it to her... Hope I was helpful !
