Truer words are hard to find. It is possible, but you should probably stop stalling. You are going to need to take it slow, and realize that you may need to lose her as a friend (for a short time) to gain her as a girlfriend. I was best friends with my GF for 2 years before we started dating. I only asked her out because it was too painful not to anymore. Depending on how close you are, she may be afraid that she will lose you as a friend if the relationship goes sour. You may want to suggest a trial period or a few trial dates after which if nothing happens you promise to go back to being just friends.
