Hmm well it's quite tricky.
To be honest, I think you should wait for now. Try and see if there is any signs of this girl liking you back. Afterall you don't want to go for it when she might want to remain friends, then you've thrown away 7 years of friendship.
If you feel yourself that you guys are like best friends, maybe you should keep it like that. Perhaps you are just confusing your strong feelings of love in a freindship way for that of a more physical, relationship manner.
It's often people do get confused due to the fine line between these, and I have also myself.
I think you should just bide your time and wait and see how things turn out. If you think shes being flirty with you and there is signs of her liking you back - then go for it I say. Even if it doesn't turn out, just tell her you want to remain friends and hopefully both of you will be able to put it behind you and move on.
However, you do need to realise there is consequences in relation to this, and it could cause a bit of friction and awkwardness between you.
Good luck and let us know how it goes. :)
