<human>: Earlier this week I posted a post about a date (or something like that?) I have coming up with one of my absolute best friends. I feel this girl is really special and I think she is just amazing. I do have feelings for her. 

I feel we've become really close this past year, her beeing the closest of my female friends. And I the closest of her male friends (from what I have seen and heard anyways).

Atm I feel tired of setting my feelings on hold just because I'm scared of how she might not want to be more than just friends.

The problem however is; she is going away for a year. She'll be leaving in less than a month, to spain, to be studying there for the next whole year.
The only way I can remain contact to her is through social media, letters (something we both figured would be fun to send back and forth), and possibly, but very unlikely: me visiting her (unlikely as my parents are sceptical on me traveling alone).

She won't be back before the next summer vacation... That's why I'm now having second thoughts. Not on her, I simply can't stop thinking about her. But on "breaking the barrier" or "making the leap". I can't help thinking on the different scenarios our relationship could end up in, just before she leaves as well. Most of them are not too pleasent.

Would breaking the "friendship barrier" be mean, just before she is leaving now? Should I even try, or should I leave it be? As heartbreaking the long wait is, the thought of making her feel bad or something like that just before she has to go is likewise as heavy..

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
<bot>: My best female friend, whom I have feelings for, is leaving for one year in spain. Should I tell her how I feel now? is that mean? Or should I try to wait?
