There is this girl I know and I really really really like her, and i know she kind of likes me back, but im not sure of it. Since I've asked her to the movies like 4 or 5 times and she said she had to do something like all of the times, so this is why I don't think she likes me. How do I make her like me more, and what can I ask her to do that she might possibly do with me?

Two times means she's unsure.
Any more than that, and she's pretty much made up her mind not to go out with you.
If you're really fixated on her, you face an uphill fight. You're probably not going to be able to do anything that changes her mind. Part of the problem is that you asked her out five times; each time she says No, it buries you deeper into the bin labeled "guys I won't date". The right time to give it a rest was the third rejection.
However, there are a couple of things you can do:
(1) Consider her unavailable for the time being; she's out of the running. This will allow you to relax around her, which is always more attractive.
(2) Explore other possibilities. This has two advantages: one, you can show why she should have said Yes by treating other girls really well; and two, you may actually find someone that makes her look like yesterday's news.
(3) Give it a full year before even considering asking her out again. Start measuring that year from the first day you don't think about how much longer it will be before the year has passed. If you're counting the days, you're not distancing yourself enough.
If you don't want to try the above, there is another approach: going for broke. Basically, you tell her that you want to go out with her but that you don't want to waste your time or be a source of irritation to her if the answer is always going to be No. Then, ask her to honestly tell you whether she has any intention of ever saying Yes. You may suffer a little heartbreak if she responds negatively, but at least you'll be able to move on for good. On the other hand, if she responds positively, you have that much to go on and you can ask her about her interests, what she likes to do for fun, and that sort of thing. Then you can give her a date which is all about what she likes to do.

There's a guy that keeps asking me out, and I'm just not interested in him, so I turn him down in the same way. Move on--you'll find another girl that will be worth your time and effort.
If you really really like her, you can try inviting her to hang out with you and your friends. If you don't have the same friends as her, tell her she can invite her friends as well. I'd be much more willing to hang out with a guy I didn't have that sort of interest in if there were other people there. Hope it all works out for you!
