or has just been someone you come into contact with, such as at school or at work and you see them and know their name but know nothing else about them, and that person has said they want to be friends.
First scenerio...if you were attracted enough to get to the point of dating, thats when two people get a chance to really find out if they have enough in common and that spark and chemistry to go long term. Maybe it took her a year to discover that or admit it to herself and now wants to demote to only friend status because she thinks you're nice enough to be a friend. This isnormal and no need to be confused or upset. Look elsewhere for a romantic partner and keep her as just a friend. Yes, guys and girls can be just friends. However some individuals can't handle it in their minds. If youre one of them, let her know instead of avoiding her without explanation.
Second scenerio is a bit more simple. Some girl has been observing you for a year watching how you handle yourself with other people. She may be a very careful person when choosing friends, even girl friends because she wants to hang with people of a certain character. If she's asking to be your friend, even tho in a group you've been kinda acting like friends, what she's likely looking for is more of a best friend. If there is a spark and chemistry there, it could lead to more than friends but let her know that if you are attracted that way, you'll let her set the pace so she doesnt freak out. After all, she's already moving at a slow pace to know you a year before asking to be friends or best friends.
Any successful relationship, especially those who end up long term, married or not, all have two things in common, they are best friends and second, they have that spark, sexual compatibility. If you know that chemistry is already missing for either one of you or both of you, then know that this offer is only for a friendship.
