How do you ask someone out without ruining the friendship?

I have developed feelings for one of my close friends and I want to ask them out but I am terrified of ruining our friendship. We have been friends for 2 years and I don't want to lose that. Is there a way to express my feelings without it destroying the friendship?

Be honest and low pressure. Tell them you have feelings but make it clear you value the friendship and are not asking them to decide anything right now. Give them space to respond without feeling cornered.

The friendship is already changed by the fact that you have feelings. Saying nothing doesn't preserve the friendship, it just delays the awkwardness. Better to know than to spend years wondering.
