<human>: Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?

I'm 19 and I am in college right now. I live in a house with 5 other people. We are all sophomores.

I live with this one girl, lets call her Mary. Mary and I became close last year, as we had all of our classes together and lived in the same residence. I fell for Mary the first day I met her, and I hung out with her to get to know her better. Unfortunately for me, we became friends and we ended up forming a housing group together along with 4 other friends. Right now, I consider her one of my best friends.

I know for a fact that Mary likes one of my other housemates. To what extent, I am unsure, but I know that she is attracted to him. He does not feel the same way about her, and nothing has happened between them.

How should I proceed? The house has agreed to stay together for the next year, and I don't see this changing anytime soon. I don't want to date my housemate, and I don't want to lose my best friend. However, I'm crazy about her and it really pains me when she talks about other guys. Please help me, Reddit.
<bot>: I'm in love with my housemate and best friend, don't want to tear apart the house and/or lose a friend. What should I do?
