a little confused...

alright, ive known this chick for about 3 years now. she used to live in philly then moved to reading pa for a year and a half. we kept in contact just through aim really. then she moved back to philly about 8 months ago. since she's been back, we've been pretty tight... hangin out, talkin alot. it just recently hit me, im like damn, i like this girl. we hit the club on tuesday night with my friend, this girl and her 2 friends. we had a blast and since then i cant stop thinkin about her. i wanna approach it but i just have a feeling that ill get the old "we're to good of friends" line. i honestly cant tell if she is feelin me or not. i dunno... she's just been on my mind.... confused

You're in the friend's zone already. Forget about it. If you do ask her out, you just lost a friend.

Its better to regret something you have done then to regret something you haven't done.

You can try, but I agree with the others: You are on the friends ladder .

I tried the jump once, and fell into the pit.

The way I would approach it is casually, when its just the two of you, "hey, I was thinking, why don't you have a bf?" and see what happens from there, this is a tricky situation because chances are high that you are in the friend catagory, or she could just be waiting for you to make a move... I am not envious of you, I've been there before - good luck!

you should try so you at least get an answer. Otherwise it will bug you for years.

I second this opinion

And if you're not going to do it drunk blame it on AZ peer pressure...

Fuck blaming it on anyone or thing, its not going to get better if you don't find out for yourself, just broach the subject with caution.

If you really like her then i say go for it. If she likes you as a true friend, and just a friend, she will prolly think its sweet of you but then tell you that she doesnt think it is a good idea. Seems like you guys have been good friends for a while and something like this shouldnt break that friendship. If it does then i guess you werent that really good of friends as you thought.

A long-term real friendship between a man and a woman will not happen in most cases, it usually ends up with one of the people falling for the other. If both people feel the same way then it will turn out great, if not then I feel bad for the other person....

Try being really nice and do romatic things to her to get her to feel romatic about you. But if you a friend with her for too long you may have missed your opprunity.

I say man up and make a move. If that doesn't work the alcohol route is not a bad second choice.

I couldn't agree more.

I say go for it! Do it sober though. Otherwise, you'll be a big wuss when it comes time to talk about it once sober. Just be nice, confident, and stand your ground like a man. Next time it's just you and her, do what Tireguy said, ask her why she doesn't have a boyfriend. After she responds, just say, "hey, why don't you and I give it a shot?" If she takes a moment to think about it, throw out some good points that you already spend a lot of time together, you know each other, you have fun together, etc..

I was in this boat once. It worked out perfectly till I fucked it up on a new years eve and did something really stupid.

date one of her friends. if she gets jealous then she is into you, then you can dump the new girl for your true desire. If not, then you will have found a girlfriend and your friend is still a friend. win-win.

good idea considering the source, or just a good idea?

even a blind pig eventually will find an acorn.

No pain, no game.

No guts and no glory.



Ask, worst thing that's going to happen is that she says no.
