i have not. that is one of the main reasons why i dont view us as being able to have a relationship, because in the 18 years that she has been one of my two closest friends, i have never once thought about it

If you just come out with it, and aren't sensitive about how you tell her, your friendship is done.
Question - you've been talking to this girl since November. Has your friend seen the two of you together? Could she already have a feeling something is brewing there, and maybe that's why she decided to tell you how she felt?

WCA,
I'm asking these questions because I'm trying to build a profile of your situation. What I do is try to place myself in your situation and then I brainstorm all of the possible ways that I would react in that situation.
Here is what I can tell you. Not much in life is better than being in a relationship with your best friend. The only thing better is marrying and having children with your best friend.
I'm incredibly fortunate that I've done both - married and had children with my best friend.
However, we were simply best friends first before we started dating.
Dating her was the best decision I've ever made, albeit extremely risky for our friendship.
_____________________________________
You just need to be honest with her. She's upset right now and feels embarrassed, humiliated, stupid, etc., and she's just taking it out on you at the moment.
She won't stop loving you as a friend unless you become shady or distant.
Without a doubt, honesty is the best policy if you want lasting relationships.
