On New Years Eve, I invited a girl, who I believed was romantically interested in me, and who I've taken out on several dates, to a New Years Eve party at a local club. Throughout this party, I believed that she was thoroughly enjoying herself.
At around 02:00, one of her friends called her and asked if we could drive her home since she was intoxicated and was having trouble hailing a cab. When she relayed this request to me, I gladly volunteered to give her friend a ride. When I arrived to pick up her friend, I found that several of her friends needed rides to apartments on the same block and assisted each of them in getting home.
After the last of her friends disembarked, I leaned over to give her a kiss and she stopped me by telling me that she was only interested in me as a friend.
I'm concerned that it is either too late, or soon to be too late to avoid falling into the "friend zone" and never having her see me as anything more.

Were this an isolated incident, I would not be concerned, though, unfortunately, it is anything but isolated. For the past three years, it seems that, despite my best attempts, I have been unable to convince a girl to see me as anything more then just a friend and none of my female friends to consider making our friendship something more.
I was wondering if any of you might happen to have any suggestions regarding how I could respectfully let a girl know that I’m interested in something more then just friendship.

I would suggest making your feelings known in a respectful yet assertive way. This advice may apply to future events more than your dealings with current female friends. From personal experience I can tell you exiting the "friend zone" can be a difficult and arduous task.

The right one will happen and you'll just know. I married my best friend. We were friends for 5 years before we both realized that our friendship had evolved into something more. It is something that just happens. My wife asked me first if there was something more and when I said there was, we fell in love. Good communication is everything. Good luck!

the fast answer is to settle for Jesus into your life and your coronary heart and he will teach you a variety of Peace, a Peace that the international does not understand, and thats the reality. yet in a secular style, freedom can is supplied in many types and on many stages and with each and each 12 months which you reside you will study new kinds of it and deeper kinds of it, and then all you should do is to study a thank you to maintain it or take care of it so as which you do no longer lose what you have attained. some human beings think of that leaving house is having freedom and others think of that obtaining out of penal complex is freedom. Then there are those that do kinds of meditation which will inform you that freedom comes from interior of and not from the exterior, and as a result you'll have inner peace, and it somewhat is what the Buddhists prepare, even yet it takes loads of prepare. I ought to agree that freedom comes from a state of inner peace yet as I pronounced in basic terms Jesus could provide you a greater robust state of inner Peace and he provides you which you have in no way experienced what he could provide you....As one in each and every of his maximum widespread strains is, that he has come to set us loose !

Hmm.Girls like boys to be sincere.If you can do something to show that you really like them,u gotta do something to touch their hearts or ensure that they spend quality time with you,then u confess.There may be a chance they may want to proceed beyond 'friends zone'.gd luck.

All you can do is ask. If you're not interested in being just a friend and that's all she has to offer, then you need to move on.
Sometimes being honest will save you needless wasted time.

I think you need to be up front with these girls about this "friend zone" thing...and you might want to ask them why they feel you only can be there friends...
