| 25. Ha...good luck getting out of the friend zone. |

I did it, but just barely. But then again, I'm a freakin' awesome and I didn't fall in love till after I started dating her.
Here's what you do...either ask her out (and risk getting rejected), or be a ballsy like I was and ask her to come over to watch a movie, and then try to make out with her (and really risk getting rejected). Luckily, it was easy for me, because I just liked her, didn't love her, and didn't care THAT much if I fucked up the friendship.
That being said, if you do something, and she rejects you, then you gotta stop right away. Don't keep pestering her. Do it once, and if she says no, you walk the other way. You date other girls. You don't dwell. If you go on with your life and keep dating, and minimize her role in your life, you have a chance of kindling some interest just by virtue of having other interests. Whatever you do, don't try to spend MORE time with her....familiarity breeds contempt. You wanna look like you have something going on in your life.

Why not just ask her out and go from there? |

You will never know unless you ask, and if you don't ask you will kick yourself forever. |

I married a woman who was "my friend." The hard part was telling her how much I loved her. |

You are infatuated. You need to step back or you'll lose two friends and make a fool of yourself. |
