So it's been about a week. I told her everything. I told her how much it was eating me up inside to tell her this. It could not have possibly gone any better. She feels the same way I did. Our friendship seems to have gotten so much stronger and no matter what I told her, she told me our friendship was solid. I thanked her for always being there for me when I was going through rough times as I did the same for her. She told me age does not matter to her at all, she is 20 as I just flat out asked her cause I really needed to know. No boyfriend. She told me she's always felt some kind of strong connection between us, a "weird, but good weird connection" her words. I asked her if it was possible she had a stronger than friendship feel towards me and she said yes and I couldn't be happier. At the same time, we decided to see where this goes and whether it becomes something we both want to pursue so time will only tell. I thank everyone for their kind advice. Thank you fellow redditors.

TL;DR - I told the girl I have a huge crush on that I do and she felt the same about me. We are currently deciding if we are going to pursue it further. Friendship grew stronger.
