Hello everyone, this is my first post and I have recently started my quest of escaping AFC status.
So here's my situation: There's a girl who I have been really, really good friends with that I always was very attracted to, but never acted on it because she just never seemed interested until recently. The girl is probably an 8 on a scale of 1-10. She's been having a lot of serious stress lately and I've been talking to her about it and giving her advice (we're talking like she needed a psychiatrist and stuff).
I always sort of knew that she liked me, and we always get along really well. We're very comfortable around eachother.
I was talking to her one night, and when she left, her friend and I had this conversation. By the way, her friend and I are also very close:
Friend: Have you ever had a crush on her before or hooked up with her over the summer or anything like that?
Me: I never hooked up with her. But yea, I like her. I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell her.
Friend: Oh, well I was just wondering, because lately she's been pretty much head over heels for you. She pretty much LOVES you.
Me: I always sort of had a feeling she did. But I never acted on it recently because I know she's been having some problems (referring to her psychological distress), and I would just add to that stress.
Friend: No, I don't think you would. In fact, I'm pretty sure you would actually help her out a lot. She talks about you constantly.
So that was pretty much the conversation (i shortened it and took away a lot of things for reading convenience, but you get the point).
Now, I really like this girl and I was obviously just going to ask her to do something tonight (Saturday). Her friend told me to say to her straight-up that I really like her, but that sounds like something any AFC would do.
So how should I go about telling her that I like her? I was thinking I would just ask her to do something. Show lots of eye contact/touching/hugging, etc. and then move in for the kiss?
Thanks in advance,
John
