Ok, here's the deal. There is this girl that likes me, and is always wanting to hang out and what not. Thing is, I don't like her like that. She keeps hinting that she wants me to ask her out, but I don't want to hurt her feelings. Yet, we still hang out because I like her as a friend, she's cool to be with.
But there is this girl that I do like and I want to be with her. I want to start talking to her but if I do it will break the heart of my friend. What should I do?

You def. shouldn't wait any longer. You need to let the girl know, as hard as it is to say, you must let her know so she doesn't get her hopes up any more than she already has. In the end, someone will get hurt regardless, that's why they call it a crush. But with this new girl, the one that you like, take your time. Initiate and be a gentleman. Take your time, she'll appreciate the chivralry.
Good Luck!!!

Ok dude, first of all i am gonna tell you from experience that is always better to go for something secure, i mean if your friend wants to be with you and you know her for quite a while(i guess) and you know the way she is, then why don't you give her a chance because it could happen that later the girl that you like won't correspond to your feelings and your friend might not like you anymore. Think about what i said and good luck.

You can go about it two ways:
The upfront nice guy way which would be to tell her flat out and spare her any further embarrassment. Though sometimes this can be pretty brutal and you'd rather let them down easy...so I like to use:
The kind of a chicken way:
Tell your friend ALL about the girl you like and then emphasize that you're so glad to have her as a FRIEND...tell her how much she's like a sister to you and that you're glad you can tell her about other girls because you're not interested in each other.
This may spare her some embarrassment if she's able to take the hint.

I know this is going to sound really sappy, but all you can do is be honest and tell the truth. That is the only way you can lessen the hurt for your friend that you care about. The more you lead her on, the worse it will be in the future. Just be honest, and tell her you love hanging out with her as a friend, but that you just do not feel the same way about her as she does about you. Good luck!

man tell her gently now for the longer u wait the harder the fall for her and the longer u are away from the one u like. If u tell her nowu may be able to save ur friendship later not a chance.
Good Luck! u have a tough talk ahead.

Well break a heart and be a friend. What I mean is you just go with heart to talk to that girl you like and don't worry if this would break your other friend's heart. Just do what you seem fit and be yourself.
