Help with a girl who's a close friend

[adit]

Ok since the last girl I went out with has a boyfriend,I'm going to try for this one girl I already know.She's a very close friend of mine,and I'm probably in the 'friend zone' right now.She calls me up a lot of times but only to talk about her problems and to get a few jokes out of me.

But now I plan to use the DJ principles on her.I've read the bible too.

So,firstly,how do I get her to go out with me,one to one?The main problem is that she comes from a rich family and I'm just average guy.Not that it matters,but it just makes me feel a little low sometimes.I want to get over that,so please give a few pointers.

Secondly,we both know we're very close friends,but she doesn't think I 'like' her in 'that' way.Would she be shocked if I move forward to her?If yes,how long should I give it to let her gradually know my feelings?

Thanks.

This is a classic...Here's the formula:

1. Stop letting her use you. She's using you like a emotional support crutch. Stop being available to her and create some distance. If she is even remotely interested in you, she will reinitiate contact.

2. Slow down the phone calls. When she calls, only answer at most twice a week. Even that figure is a bit excessive for me.

3. If you want to do something, do it now. If you want to go out with her, just ask. It really is that easy. Stop worrying about the what-ifs and just do it. The sooner you get an answer, the less time and energy you have to spend pining for and worrying about this girl.

Good luck and godspeed
