No it SUCKS. Happened to me last year. I had to distance myself for a few months before I could accept that the friendship would never be anything more than platonic.
I crushed on my best friend for MONTHS. Like it was so transparent. When I found out he felt the same way about me it made my world. But I've done the one-sided love thing and it's awful. Had to create some distance because it was too hard.
Happy for you! You are very lucky
My whole love life has been a diary of one sided love 'affair'
