Then tell her you want to talk to her at the end of the day or at lunch. Then that will get her wondering and it will give her a chance to rethink her feelings for you. Then when it comes to talking to her say something like, Well I been thinking about you lately and I like you, but as more than a friend, I was wondering if maybe you felt the same way. Its good to do it like that, because girls dont like rambling idiots who spend ten minutes on one sentence. So saying it straight out and completely how it is, is easier. If she feels the same way then ask her out on a date. Start with a movie and maybe some icecream afterwards. Make it fun and simple, so dont start wondering what romantic restaurant you can take her to, because thats going too fast. If she doesn't feel the same way, tell her you still want to be friends (though she will probably say that to you first) and if your really mad dont let it show, because you'll look like a loser who cant suck it up and get it through his head. If your sad then thats all right, because if you really like her, you will be sad. The most important thing I can tell you is to be straight forward and be who you are. I hope this helped, I'd like to know how things work out. I'd wish you good luck, but you dont need it. :) - PK [ Bbeautifulbby555's advice column | Ask Bbeautifulbby555 A Question ]

- get one of your girl or guy friends to ask her what she thinks about you beyond a 'friends' level :)
- if she says something like 'eww no' go to point 5
- if she says something like 'I wish, I don't know how to give him a hint' ...you make a move! Move on to the next point
- Now you should probably tell her how you feel. Don't be scared, just be honest and yourself. Confidence is sexy ;)
- If this all works out okay, you should then go up to her and ask her if you two would like to go out for the movies or something, and if she asks, 'like a date?' then say 'yes!' confidently. =] If it all works up to here, then skip the next point
- If she said something like 'eww no' to the idea of being more than just friends, then you should probably do subtle things that'll get her to change her mind. Such as, making her laugh more, spending more time with her, getting a little closer to her without getting too close (giving her more hugs), and then ask her out on a date. If this fails then you should just move on, I know it might be hard but I bet there are many other girls you might like!
Risks:
-You must like your friend enough to risk losing the friendship over - it may occur, but this is just the worst that could happen. Therefore, it's also a rare chance.
Tips:
- Don't be shy in asking her out!
- Do a few romantic things for her to help her think of you more as a 'date' than a 'friend' (ex: give a rose/candies, a kiss, etc) :)
- Also remember if it doesn't work out, she just probably doesn't deserve a great guy like you ;)!
Wish you all the best, and if you need any more help just send one in to my inbox! :)
