<p>so in one of my classes there's this cute girl. I talked to her today and she is very nice, cool, and smart. However, her being in a soroity, she probably has a bf or atleast a hook up. How do you approach a girl as just a friend, not trying to give off the vibe of being creepy/desperate/wanting more.</p>
<p>Invite her to do something with you and a few other friends, like bowling or a movie or going out to eat. It’s a lot less intimidating.</p>
<p>Keep it with group activities, don’t compliment her looks, etc. Basically avoid anything that sounds like a come-on or a pickup line so she doesn’t get the wrong impression. If you’re in a class with her, you can ask her and some other people to join a study group.</p>
<p>build up the friendship. This worked for me quite well when I was in college the first time.</p>
<p>Good advice here</p>
<p>Use friendly words. I sometimes call my friends who are girls “dude” or “bro” as a joke, but it really takes out any notion of attraction lol. </p>
<p>Disclaimer: depending on how good friends you are with this girl already, this could fall flat. I wouldn’t recommend going up to an acquaintance and calling her “bro.”</p>
<p>Just do what I do.</p>
<p>It always gets me in the friend zone!</p>
<p>^Lol’d</p>
<p>Just talk to her normally. Don’t come onto her.</p>
<p>If you are in the same class with this girl, start out a conversation with her. If there are group activities going on in the classroom, then get involved in them. You don’t want to always jump stairs with friendships, guy or girl.</p>
