Why sit around wondering what could've been, what would've been and what should've been, when you can answer all of those questions and then some by being honest and telling this girl how you really feel about her?
Just go for it. What's the worst that can happen? She says no. If she does, just let her know it's ok and that you just thought maybe it would be cool to try and be more than friends. Don't make it awkward, just act normal and cool about it.

i personally think a real friend wouldnt abandon the person who likes them just because of the fact that they like them, personally i'd accept it.. and cope with it.. and still be a good friend. if this friendship ends over you liking her, she's not mature enough to handle a friendship.. losing a friendship over something so little is petty.. if you like this girl, be honest with her.. but not too frank because you dont wanna scare her either about how you want to marry her or anything lol. good luck!!

If you guys are good friends and you're afraid to mess up the friendship, I would try hanging out with her alone a lot and getting to see what type of person she really is. Good, and bad.
Every person has down points, and the way relationships usually work from being friends first is if there is honesty, communication, and knowing each others good and bad points and accepting them and being okay with them.
Unfortenatly, I tired dating a friend once and it didn't end up very well. He turned out to be very different as a friend from a boyfriend.
So, if you don't already, spend more time with her. And if you do already spend enough time with her in your opinion and you feel you know her enough. Tell her how you feel and talk to her about it.
LiLMAMAx answered Wednesday July 30 2008, 9:13 pm: Well in certain cases people are scared to ask out a good friend because their afraid if it doesn't work out then they will no longer be friends. However, in some cases it is better to date a close friend because they know more about you than a random girl would know & the same way for you about her.
All I can say is, if you really like her; go for it. If things don't work out, it could have a mutual feeling where she could feel the same way too. Just let her know when you ask her on a date that you don't want it to interfere with you two being friends, no matter what happens.
Most girls are understanding & if the connection just isn't there dating wise than it will probably be a mutual feeling. Some people it works for & some are just better left as friends. But it never hurts to find out! ;] Good luck! ♥ [ LiLMAMAx's advice column | Ask LiLMAMAx A Question ]
