Expert Answer

Start slowly. For instance, if you touch her hand, pay attention to whether she responds positively. If she seems physically and emotionally comfortable, you can take the lead and escalate your flirtation.

Question

My girlfriend likes me but she told my friend that she likes him. What should I do?

Community Answer

She's your girlfriend, so have her decide what she wants. If she won't give you an answer, get away from her. Show her you can find a new girlfriend and don't need to rely on her. Alternatively, if there's something she needs that she gets from your friend and not you, fix that first.

Question

Myself and a girl I like have been friends for a really long time. She even calls me her BFF, but I want to take the relationship to a new level. Any advice?

Community Answer

Stop being her best friend. It's possible you can outright tell her you want a relationship, but it sounds like you're in the friend zone. Instead, a good course of action for you is to create some distance between the two of you. See other girls. Flirt with her a little and see how she responds.

Question

How to tell a girl to stop flirting with you?

Community Answer

Don't flirt back. If you don't respond to her advances, chances are she'll give up. You can also tell her to stop.
