Is this a good setup to get a girlfriend?
I really don't want to ruin the friendship by misunderstanding things, but I feel like there might be something there.
Any advice, anons?

Just ask her bro
>>
well, does she herself show you any interest?

woman moment

>>34324666
I want to ask her, but like I said, don't want to ruin the friendship
>>
>>34324687
I really can't tell, it's my first time going like this with someone
Does go to any place count as interest?
>>
>>34324845
Nah, I thought about drop out too
>>
>>34326153
Do you really care about the friendship or do you care about staying in close proximity to her because of your feelings? Be honest with yourself. Would you really want to maintain the "friendship" if she was seeing another guy?

Honestly, my brother went through a similar situation. In the end, nothing really came out of it except an awkward conversation, and I regret not telling him to leave it alone, especially since he asked me before sending the message.

I think it’s better to distract yourself, but in the future we might regret not trying.
>>
>>34327567
*And yeah, they don’t talk to each other anymore, but that only happened much later. It didn't have much to do with the message.
>>
it was a good setup like 6 months ago. she's probably moved on, but you still night have a chance. remember women move fast, they have a time clock.
>>
>>34327464
That made me think, anon, thanks
I enjoy her company and the time I spend with her, but when she was still studying I thought she's got a bf and gradually drifted away from her until I hardly ever saw her.
Then it turned out he just was in love with her and was just trying to flirt (thank God it didn't work).
>>
>>34324364
>friendship with a girl
You shouldn't put a high value on that. Try pushing it into something more than that and don't worry about losing her as a friend. That's gay anyway.
>>
Binge friends-to-lovers anime and ask her out

Damn, sorry bout your brother, hope he's doing good now.
Like you said, might regret if I do nothing, so I don't think it'd be a good idea if I don't even try anything
>>
>>34324364
If you haven't gotten intimate with her yet, then you got friend zoned.
If you wanna break outbof it, set up a romantic date where you plan on getting intimate and initiate. If she rejects you, too late.
Cut contact, she isn't interested.
If she contacts you afterwards, you ask her out on dates only with the goal of intimacy and make that clear to her. In the meantime, look elsewhere.
>>
>>34327618
It'd be fine if still have a chance
This saturday we'll hang out again, so maybe I'd try to touch her hand or something
>>
>>34327726
Any advice on how I could do that?
>>
>>34327857
I wanna get intimate, but don't know how
I mean, when is the right time to hold her hand or so?
>>
>>34328335
Prob in bed while cuddling
>>
>>34324364
I’d just ask her. If you don’t, then she’ll get in a relationship and you’ll always regret what could’ve been.
>>
>>34324364
You need to finally grow the fuck up and understand men and women can’t be friends.
You already have feelings for her, so strike one right there. Then in the future, you have to contend with the fact that she’ll get with other dudes if you remain “friends.” If she dates a guy with an ounce of self respect he’ll start making moves towards cutting you out of her life. Her relationship with her man will always color her relationship with you as well; I’ve had female friends I had completely honest platonic intentions with, only for them to use me for male attention when they were fighting with their boyfriends and then ghost me when they patched things up.
You need to shit or get off the pot. If you really want to keep her as a friend, find another girl who will suck your crush on your friend out through your dick.
>>
Didn't threaten. Obviously there will only ever be us. No other
>>
>>34328532
Yeah, that's a fear I have
Anyways, my plan is to tell her how I feel maybe this weekend, if not, the next one
>>
>>34328621

I get your point, anon, and it kinda sucks.
I know I really like her and don't want to just let it go, so I want to do something about it
If I can work up the courage, I'll tell her this weekend
>>
>>34324364
I've gotten a gf after taking her to cinema once. It depends on your rizz and how assertive you are towards your goal (getting a gf).

You are overthinking it, ppl your age naturally date like it's nothing, and since both of you have known each other for so long that means she definitely thinks about you too.

Minimum you should do now is to discuss the concept of dating with her. Thats it.
>>
>>34330654
So next time we hang out I just bring it up in conversation, like "Hey, I really like hanging with you" or smth?
>>
>>34326963
Yeah, but you didn't and that's what makes you a man.
>>
well, depends how she acts and behaves around you at these activities.
she might be massively dissapointed in you, becvause she already assumed looong ago that you are her boyfriend and she just waited for you to make the step to finally make out with her
and then you ask if shes your gf...like...whaaaat ofc dummy

on the other hand you might be right, of course

BUT
>>Meet a girl because our parents are friends (both doctors)
this is the building block, a chance perhaps. maybe ask her parents, w i t h o u t her ever noticing, what they think about you. if they remember you and. what their daughter remembers about you/says about you at home anything? you have to finagle this delicately of course, under some pretext, maybe help her mother out on some errand whatever and ask her out of curiosity for middle school old times sake. whatever be creative. or maybe ask your parents if they rember her parents and what came of it?
>>34326155
shit. yea this happened to me. she showed me her barbie collection. YES IT COUNTS

good luck OP
>>
>>34328621
Men and women can absolutely be friends because if you’re not a coomer you don’t feel the desire to fuck every woman out there but still appreciate their company
>>
>>34335858
cope, you are an npc if you enjoy a woman's company. woman are boring and uninteresting.
>>
men and women can't be platonic friends, you aren't afraid of losing her as a friend, you're afraid of her saying you can't stick it inside her pussy.
>>
>>34335140
My parents and hers are in constant contact because of work. And even she once told me "My parents only let me hang out if it's with you".
Sometimes, when these "dates" are over and drop her off at her parents, usually talk to her dad for a bit. Nothing serious, just like Hey, how you doing and stuff. So I gotta figure out how to talk to her mother.
My parents keep telling me (half joking half serious) that I should get closer to her.

And thanks, anon.
