<human>: I am a 20 year old heterosexual male and one of my best friends (also 20) is the most amazing person I have ever met. I have known her since November 2010, been friends with her since February 2011, and loved her since October 2011. 
  Since I fell in love with her I have wanted to tell her but never worked up the courage for fear of being let down. Now it is four months later and I think about her so much and love her more and more every day.
  She has now gone on a couple of dates with a guy who I know is a really awesome dude and things are going well for them it seems. Which is good in the sense that I want her to be happy but from a selfish point I would rather her be happy with me.
  Anyway, the toughest thing for me right now is hearing from her and all of our friends about this other guy because it puts me further and further from any microscopic chance I might have with her, because it is very clear she just sees me as a friend. So lately I have been trying not to communicate with her much because I stay happier when I can keep my mind off of her. BUT I DON'T WANT TO JUST NOT TALK TO HER EVER BECAUSE SHE IS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS.
  So what I want to know is what should I do to stop going through the pain of her not knowing and me hearing about all her feelings toward this other guy? Do I talk to her about it and tell her how I feel? Do I just keep it quiet and just work on eventually getting over her?
  Also how would I go about telling her if I wanted to try and go for it with her?

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
