<p>Ok, popular belief is that it's impossible. Not true. This thread is for discussing the methods of getting out of it.</p>
<p>IMO you have a few options.
1. Straight up ask her out. Risky move. Could ruin the friendship if you don't do it right. She also would have to have been thinking the same thing you were for it to work.
2. Slowly distance yourself from her and then come back with the gf request.
3. Use jealousy to your advantage. Chicks are extremely competitive. Make her jealous. A possible solution to this would be to start randomly dating some chick that is obviously below her. When you are around your friend check to see how she reacts to this new set-up gf. You'll be able to tell if your friend has any interest based on her reaction.</p>
<p>I think sometimes a girl won't look at you in "that" way until you have another female interest. It might change her opinion of you.</p>
<p>Wow, honestly, I don’t agree with any of those methods:( Have they worked for you before? Why would you want to make someone jealous or make them feel like they did something wrong? Personally, I prefer subtle hints haha:) That way, if they pick them up, they can confront you either way.</p>
<p>3 has worked for me. It was recommended by a friend and worked perfectly. I just took this one girl who was really really hot but super dumb out with me when going somewhere with people including the friend. All night you could just see the hate and jealousy in her eyes. Like a few weeks later I asked her out and she said yes instantly. </p>
<p>Girls are jealous of each other. That is a fact.</p>
<p>Playing the jealousy game is not wise. It might feel “fun” and make you feel powerful/in control while you’re doing it, but, depending on how you do it, it just makes you look stupid and incompatible in her eyes. There are ways to make the jealousy work in your advantage without you looking like a d-bag/desperate moron though.</p>
<p>First one can work if you don’t as much about the friendship.</p>
<p>Number two can be relatively dangerous in high school, as people can change in the blink of an eye. After you distance yourself from the girl you like for a month, she could change a great deal.</p>
<p>My best friend told me I’m like a sister to him ahaha.</p>
<p>I told him I’m cool with that if he likes incest. :)</p>
<p>(But in all seriousness I’m cool having him as a close friend, I just think there was the potential to be more, but I don’t have like a crush on him or anything. I thought that would be a witty response to the classic “love you like a sister” comment aha)</p>
<p>phuriku, was there not one guy and one girl in the relationship? We were both in the “friendship zone”. If he had straight up asked me out, I would have said yes, but he was too shy. My point was, just bite the bullet and ask him/her out.</p>
<p>So, manipulate a third person to get what you want. That really shows consideration for the third person’s emotions, eh? Not the best idea in my opnion.</p>
<p>Lol, I read the title and said to myself, “Oh no, not more dating advice.” Then I saw that you were the OP, and I thought, “Only this guy would have the audacity to make a new thread and put forth advice on this topic.”</p>
<p>^ ■■■■■. Oh hatersunite. You make me laugh.</p>
<p>Anyways, this advice doesn’t work if the girl is aware that she is putting you in the friend zone and does it on purpose. I really think most girls do it on purpose.</p>
<p>Eh, horrendous advice, in my opinion. Unless you’re going for a really vain, dumb chick, #3 will certainly not work. </p>
<p>Seriously girls are not idiots and can catch a hint…unlike some guys. If she recognizes that you like her but doesn’t like you back the same way, she will automatically put you in the friend zone out of pity. </p>
<p>If she she seriously dislikes you, she will simply not befriend you. And as a result the friend zone does not need to be gotten out of, because she despises you.</p>
<p>And if the girl genuinely likes you she won’t put you there because it’s a black hole.</p>
<p>A girl is not going to avoid every attractive guy she meets if she’s got a boyfriend. Similarly, she’s not going to ask out every hot guy she meets.</p>
