I find it difficult asking girls that I am very close to out because of fear of what might happen if I am rejected. I mean if she says no,it might affect our friendship. What should I do?

Thanks for all your answers,but I will like to clearify the fact that I do not make friends with girls because I am attracted to them;the attraction comes during our friendship.So what can I do to subdue my fear of ending our friendship if I asked them out.

All I have to say is. Just go for it! I was in the same position and trust me I got my fair share of rejections. I didn't want to ask out my lady friends for the fear of rejection, broken friendship, and aftermath awkwardness. So for all the fair share of rejections, I also have my fair share of dating one of the most cutest girls that a lot of dudes be hatin on me for.

Some tips and tricks I used overcome my fear of rejection was to build some self-esteem & confidence. I would tell myself "At least I had the balls to ask you out." or "Hey I was able to put myself out there to confess to you, so I don't have any regrets of asking you out."

Hope this helps.
