writes:The guy I like I have known for around eight years, our parents are best friends and I have practically grown up with him. I have really strong feelings for him but i'm worried that he only thinks of me as a friend, help me get out of the friend zone? Also, I don't get to see him that often because our parents only meet up around once a month so how can I see him more without asking him on a date? Thank you :)

 You could do a couple of things. Either, you could just ask if he wants to do something, like, go to watch a film, or you could just tell him.
Obviously if you ask if he wants to go and see a film you can always cover your tracks with "I meant as friends" if he says he's not interested in you in that way. But that means he'll never know how you really feel.
I would personally tell him in this situation, on the positive side, he will know how you feel, it'll show him your mature, and plus, you've known him 8 years - even if he doesn't like you the same way he's still going to really value you as a friend, so your not going to lose him in that way either.
If your not feeling so confident doing that approach, I think aunt honesty has got it pretty much perfect as to how you should handle it.
Hope that helps :)

Just tell him how you feel. He might feel the same way about you. You never know unless you try. Best of luck.

 Without having to ask him on a date,just suggest that the both of you meet up more often. You don't need to tell him your feelings or make it official. The next time you see him ask him would he be up for hanging out with you more often. Do you have his number? If not ask him for it and then keep in contact through text messages. The more you get talking to him the more you will feel comfortable and you can start to flirt a little.
