How do you tell someone that you like them without ruining your friendship?

Question

Ok, so i like this girl in one of my classes. We're friends, we talk and stuff like that. I like her alot, and I wanna tell her, but I don't wanna ruin our friendship if she doesn't like me. I also need help with finding the right words to say to her to tell her that i like her. please help

Answer 1

Just go for it. You only live once. Whats the worst she can do? Destroy you mentally, that's all.

Answer 2

Don't make it into this big thing. The worst thing you could possibly do is to make it into an epic event. Make things funny, like during conversation instead of asking her out just say "hey you're still going to that movie with me this weekend right?" upon which she will answer "what?" and then you will say "Oh I haven't asked you yet? That went much better in my head this morning, so will you go?". Then if she says no just say "You've killed my manly ego, I will never be the same." If you act like a weirdo and make things all stiff and uncomfortable it will ruin the friendship, if you take things a little less seriously then it won't be a big deal and she'll get over it.

Answer 3

Telling a girl you like her doesn't mean you need to say the words out loud! Show her with your action, you happy smile on seeing her, your consideration towards her well being, your helpfulness when she needs it, the single wild flower you pick just for her..... As to the other worry of yours, that if she doesn't feel the same it would ruin the friendship, now why should that be so? You can be friends with a lot of girls without all of them being your special girlfriend.

Answer 4

From a private experience. Have some previous fashions and then have a deep theory communication along with her. The alcohol will build your self assurance and the communication will permit her understand which you have confidence her and nevertheless sense that telling this won't smash the friendship. day after on the instant tell her which you wish that what you reported the evening formerly did no longer smash the friendship.

Answer 5

Well your half way there, as she is your friend. Relationships are based on friendship, trust, anyway so go for it, she may be embarrassed for a while but u might find that she feels the same way, if she don't then u can still be friends without upsetting either one of you. hope it all goes ok. take care

Answer 6

go for it! sure when ever you ask a girl out doesnt most of them say lets try and be friends first and see how it goes! u already have that friendship with someone and its time to take it to the next level! dont be afraid it will all fall in to place even if she does turn u down x x

Answer 7

That's the gamble you take when crossing the line from friends to more. But if you continued being friends you would never know if it could be more. Why don't you say would you like to be more than friends, I'm sure it will make her day :o)

Answer 8

Just ask her if she wants to meet up sometime!
My suggestion would also be to ask near the end of the day or outside from classes, as whatever the outcome, it could be awkward/difficult to concentrate after!

Answer 9

Take it slowly.
Ask her out for a drink/meal on a casual basis.
Test the water regarding her feelings for you. If you can sus out that she feels the same - the tell her how you feel otherwise you could jeopardise losing a great friend.
Good Luck.
