I like my friend

I'm a guy she's a girl, we've been friends for a while, I want to move on and get into a relationship with her, there's only one problem, how do i let her know what i want, she is quite low confidence and doesn't think anyone could like her, but i do.

do you get any signs that she likes you? i would just do something like go somewhere quiet to eat or get a drink (starbucks etc) and then say something like,

"hey, listen i gotta be serious for a moment..and then explain how you feel but don't go into too much detail until she responds"

Hm I wouldn't do anything sudden, you might freak her out. Perhaps subtle hints and then work up to telling her?

Yeah I dont' want to do anything sudden but I"m going to explode if I don't tell her :s-smilie:

She was telling the one guy who's mad about her that no one can be :rolleyes:

When your walking down the street, rest your hand on her lower back and see what she does.

She'd probably just think I'm being friendly, I've done stuff like that before to no avail.

well means she's comfortable around you.when its raining,hold her hand and run together to shelter.observe how she reacts.look in her eyes, and if her pupils dilate (taking into consideration lighting effects), then she is attracted to you.don't rush into things and make sure the mood is right.explain slowly and do not laugh when you're telling her.say a little bit first before going into much detail.hope that helps

Well, I've had two really good friends do these things:
The guy runs across campus (5/10min walk), then runs uphill and across campus again (another 10min walk), just to hand in this girl's essay on time because she had left it til last minute. In between all of this he has also proof-read this essay and corrected any mis-spellings there were. All of this done in a completely hurry, with no notice in advance - the girl said the word that she needed help, and he was there in a shot. Got her essay in just in time for her. This exact same guy also carried a printer for the girl, walking half an hour, and then installed it for her. This guy also laughs at everything she ever says, they sit together and lean against each other and when one of them is speaking, the other's entire attention is on the person, completely oblivious to the world. And they would wander into their own world laughing at each other's jokes as if the world has vanished.

I suggested to the girl - I think he likes you. She responds: Oh no, I hope not! I only like him as a friend! - she refused to believe that he liked her because apparently his body language says the contrary.

Lo and behold, they are now engaged :smile:

Basically, nothing beats the spoken word sometimes. The guy couldn't be more obvious about it but the girl just didn't see it (there were cultural differences too) - in the end it took something pretty drastic and basically them two telling each other how they liked each other. And then things got sorted, finally, lol.

So just drop it to your girl gently, give her time to think about it. You've earned her trust and friendship, that's a good start. My impression is you two might make a really sweet couple :smile:

entirely without proof, but you two sound like it.

thats a real nice story, makes me happy when something good like that happens.

Dude i would speak to her, let her know your feelings, she might be hinting to you that she likes you by saying nobody likes her. she seems to be looking for you to say that you do.

mmhm i would say give it ago if your desperate to tell her.
