So I'm friends with this girl and we're very close, I told her 6 months ago that I liked her but she said she didn't have time to date me (works 3 jobs including med school and nursing) and she got out of a 5 year bad relationship in which she was physically and mentally abused. I understood but persisted my advance for more than just friends until I realized she was with another guy she didn't tell me about, but they weren't dating just dating, no sex. I stoppee talking to her because I felt I ruined the friendship and was lied to, I felt worthless. So I got over it and after 5 months I texted her drunk and she was very happy I texted her. We been talking (as friends) I hungout with her twice the first week then I decided to step it up and took her to NYC to a very nice restaurant and we had a great night drinking. She was smiling playing with her hair touching me a lot which never usually happened. Ever since we been texting all day everyday and she is way more enthusiastic about our conversations and we hangout everytime I ask. (before she'd be busy or ditch me) only thing is I text her first all the time but she always thinks she's bothering me if she texts me so idk. She's been talking about how much she can't stand guys and realized so much about men wanting to get in her pants and don't like her for her and her ex bf being a douche bag. She's 21 and I'm 20 so she keeps texting me from the bar telling me how she can't wait until I'm 21 so we can go out all the time. She changed a lot toward me since we stopped talking but for the better and I told her I just want to stay friends (just to keep things on an unawkward level) so I was wondering if she likes me now or how I should go about this. She doesn't talk about boys anymore around me unless it's celebrities and doesn't refer to me like I'm one of her friends but I don't want to get ahead of myself. Help!10 points best detailed answer?
Personally, I think you should revoke the "I just want to be friends" comment. Obviously you want to be more than just friends, and in case she does too you need to be honest with her about your feelings. She may not have liked you before, but it sounds like she might now. Now is your window of opportunity; you need to be a little more aggressive before the window is closed for good. You may never see this opportunity again, friend.10 points best detailed answer?
Date her again one time, and ask her like this "I remember 6 months ago I told you that I Like you, if ever I will tell you again that I Like you what would be your answer?" if she says no don't get hurt just tell her "Thats fine at least I know that right now I'm still your friend and I'll be forever" but if she says yes I like you too then tell her "If I will be your boyfriend, I will give you respect and love, I will never let you down".10 points best detailed answer?
I know exactly how you feel. It's like you don't want to like them if there's not a reason too. I'm in a similar situation, but yours seems so much easier to figure out. From a girl's point of view, I think that she definitely likes you. If she's texting you from the bars WHILE she's with her friend's, then she definitely has a thing for you. The fact that she says that she wants you with her at the bars is really significant too. I think that you should keep doing what you're doing and in maybe a week you should ask her out on a date :) Good luck :)
