In today's Dear Abby column, a widow seeks Abby's advice on how to approach a friend she has a crush on.

Abby reminds today's reader of the old adage, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained" when it comes to addressing her crush on a friend, but that she should also be prepared that he may not reciprocate those feelings.

I have been a widow for three years. There’s a guy I have known for the last eight years, and I have had a crush on for a couple of years. I’m not sure how to talk to him about my feelings and I don’t want to ruin our friendship. How can I talk to him and not ruin our friendship? -- FEELING LOSTDo you socialize with this person? If you do, the next time you go out together, tell him how much you like him and how special he is to you. If he reacts positively, tell him you may have a crush on him.
