A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

So I've been friends with this girl for about 5 months now. We hang out like every other week and text for like a few days at a time during random weeks. When i first started talking to her i told her i liked her and she told me she didnt want to ruin our friendship and i accepted it and forgot about it. Now i like her again and im sure she's just going to say the same thing. So what do i do to get out of this friend zone?

QuirkLady agony aunt1. Stop being so available. Don't accept every invitation, don't answer all of her texts.

2. Don't share everything that happens in your life.

3. Date other people. Feel free to tell her about the great dates.

4. Look your best 24/7.

If all of that doesn't work with her, you're bound to get a date with someone else who will want to date you.

Laura1318 agony auntThere are two ways to do that .

One is to remain friends with her and work from the inside and the other is to get off her planet and date other girls which may make her jealous.

I would prefer the latter method.

You can hang around being nice to her and she'll carry on being happy to be with you but free to flirt and do anything else she wants with other guys or you can let her see what she's going to lose.

Tell her you like her and can't be just her friend any more as it's too painful to see what you can't have all the time.

If she doesn't want to be with you then tell her sorry but you have to cut contact for a while so you can get over her, and then tell her you won't be able to be as close with her again when you do start being friends again.

Give her a chance to miss you.

Good Luck!! xx

TimmD agony auntNot much. All you can do is just be extra nice and caring to her. Be her best friend and with a little luck eventually she'll see that you're good guy, good friend, and life without you would be worse.
