So I was hanging out with my best friend, and we were talking about how much we miss each other and all that stuff. So it was 2 at night, and Christmas (so yeah, making stupid decisions is totally fine)

In the heat of the moment, as I call it, I told her I loved her. 

And well turns out, she told me she loved me too. Apparently she had always liked me, but was just too scared to tell me. (She also called me stupid for not getting the hints, but lets not talk about that)

The problem is, I don't like her. I realized what I had done the next morning, and I knew it was too late. For the first time ever, I wanted to be in the friend zone again. 

So the next day I visit her, and tell her that I never thought it through, and It was stupid of me to take such a rash decision. Well as you guessed, she didn't take that too well.

First she tried to convince me not to break up... A few hours later she messaged me about how she was going to never express her feelings to anyone ever again, and at the end of the whole thing she started acting as if she's the one who wants to break up (Girls I tell you)

The thing is, she's the closest person to me, I care about her so much. I never want to lose her.
Frankly I'll never be able to forgive myself if things don't go back to normal.

What am I supposed to do to make this the same as it used to?
