First try talking to her indirectly about your problem like telling her you have a friend who is love with her best friend but she's straight and ask her if she was that straight friend how would she react and if says she wouldn't over react and try to understand then tell her that you are the one who is in love with her.

If she’s straight you must respect that part of her! And you’d have to decide if you tell her, you might risk losing your best friend.

Been there, done that. It's the absolute worst and you can't do anything about it. You can't force yourself to stop loving her nor can you force her to love you. The one thing that could possibly bring you a little peace of mind is telling her. Personally I never had the guts to do so, but sometimes I look back and wish I had, just for my own comfort.

Let her know how you feel and that she should accept you no matter what. Do it face to face and don't be too blunt

You can ask yourself if you are able to stay friend with her or if your feelings about her is too strong, and it would hurt you more to keep seeing her knowing the fact it's gonna be the only relationship you will ever have with her. Eventually, you can try to talk with her about this, maybe she will be able to help you and find a solution. :)

There isn't much you can do. You need to be there for her as her best friend unless you think you can't be around her any more. If she doesn't like you then that's it. Just know that you can love multiple people.

Confess to her. If she cares about you as a friend, she should be willing to help you ride these emotions out and move on so you can enjoy the friendship without your feelings bothering you. Keeping your feelings bottled up can just lead to you distancing yourself or even spoiling the friendship out of difficulties dealing with your own emotions.
If your friend no longer wants to be your friend after you confess, then maybe she's not a good friend at all.

Well , you could maybe sit down and talk to her about this and just expain fully your feelings towards her and say you understands she is straight and that you don't want your friendship to be affected by this.

Make sure if she actually is straight and not just bisexual/pansexual/homosexual and 'in the closet'.
If she actually is straight, you don't have a chance with her, as harsh as that may sound. The best option would be to try to get over your feelings for her. You can tell her about it if you feel like that would not damage your friendship, but you are under no obligation to do so.

Tell her and see how it turns up it is the best thing you can do.
