Is he like the type that wait for a girl to make a move or would rather have her make the move? If he is then yeah, ask him if he will tyr the 'boyfriend, gilrfriend' thing with you. If he's not or if you don't know or don't think he is THEN I would suggest you to WAIT. Hang out with him, spend as much time as possible together, and FLIRT (so he'll like you more and more and miss you more and more when you're gone and will ask you out sooner or be really eager to ask you out). However if you do wait and you get too impatient or if you don't want to wait (But I highly recommend waiting... not saying a year, just a little bit) or if you think it'll give you high expectations and you don't want to set yourself up for a fall or the risk of a fall or if you're simply a straight foward type of person that doesn't like to play games and wants to know exactly where she stand then I would suggest talking to him. Tell him that you like him a lot as a friend and value your friendship a lot but you also like him as more than friends. And tell him you'd like to know if there is any possibility for you gusy to be more than friends. Tell him to be honest with you because if you guys can't be more than friends the best way to get over someone is knowing that there is no chance and him liking you is only a step for it to be a chance, but it requires more than that. Maybe he doesn't want to risk the frienship either or he's has crappy experiences in the past and he doesn't want that to happenw ith you guys. However if there IS a chance than you will know you're not wasting your time or setting yourself up.
Good luck and I hope I didn't bore you too much with my long essay. [ vilelove's advice column | Ask vilelove A Question ]

We actually really liked each other, and he was actually really sweet to me to make me like him. :] We went out & then broke up because we just realized we wanted to be friends. We still are hella best friends. If you want, you can go out. I really do say to go out with him. Plus, everyone says that when one girl & one guy go out who are actually best friends, they think that their relationship is ruined and can`t be best friends anymore. But that`s not ENTIRELY[sp] true. Just take a chance. [ KiSSxMYxPEARLS's advice column | Ask KiSSxMYxPEARLS A Question ]
