It has happened to many: you begin to feel something for a friend (or your best friend) you have known for a while and you do not know how to tell them. Well, in this article we will give you a couple of tips.
Steps
Step 1. Cultivate a deep friendship with this girl, at least for a while (in some cases at least a couple of years)
Step 2. Take every opportunity you have to go out with her
Go shopping, to the movies, even to a family reunion.
Step 3. Make physical contact
Start tactfully and then raise the level. Start by shaking her hand. Then get into the habit of greeting each other by beating your fist. Hug her, but not too tightly. For a special occasion, take it seriously. Every now and then give him some light pat and without malice. This could help her develop feelings for you. It will certainly strengthen your friendship.
Step 4. Take her home often; you'll make her feel special and then they'll start seeing her as your girlfriend - don't confirm it, but don't deny it either; let things take their course
Step 5. Take some time alone with her to chat
Step 6. Let her know that your feelings towards her have changed and that you would like her to become something more than a friend
At best, she'll ask you to show her how much you love her. Kiss her (she'll be impressed).
Step 7. Ask her how she feels about you and make a decision
Step 8. If you receive a refusal, do not give up, it may take a little longer
Maybe it's not ready yet. If you still care about her, stay friends. Don't get angry and don't make her feel guilty. You planted a seed in her head and maybe after a while she might realize that she feels the same things for you too.
Step 9. Don't stay in the "friend zone" for too long, she may feel uncomfortable in this situation
Advice
- Tell him in person.
- Try not to push too hard. Otherwise you will ruin your friendship.
- Avoid being too sticky. If she seems annoyed she may think you are using her to boost your self-esteem. Go out with your friends from time to time or stay on your own.
- Take your time, don't rush things. But don't go too slow either. The sure thing is that you have to get out of the friendzone or you will be stuck in it forever and she will definitely hook up with another guy.
- Don't be shy, be assertive but not too aggressive.
- Don't be afraid to express your feminine side. Women like men who show some confidence.
- Show assertiveness and speak out the next time you see her.
- Do not rush. Proceed calmly, the important thing is to have a plan. Don't have too many expectations or you risk being disappointed. Let things proceed normally. Don't change, but let her know that you care more than she thinks.
- Don't touch her or hug her if you've known her for less than three months. For some it may be too soon, for others an endless wait, but the truth is that three months is the right compromise: you know each other enough to become more intimate. Remember that if she agrees to share a drink with you, it doesn't mean she likes you.
- Always be there when he needs you. Let her know that you care about her well-being.
Warnings
- Don't kiss her too soon. Wait until she is ready.
- Always be honest and direct with her.
- Don't be nervous, girls want to talk to confident guys.
- If it doesn't work, you could ruin your friendship or walk away, so better think about what you have.
