Everybody here has given you stellar advice, Posher. Here's my thought, and it's very similar only put differently.
Posher: You know (insert name) I feel so close to you that I could be more than friends with you.
Lady: I like our friendship the way it is.
Posher: I feel so close to you that I could do that too.
No problem. Take a few deep breaths, and the next time you hang out, act like the conversation never took place. Don't let her feel awkward. That's the key.
