She’s the one that you spend most of your time with. You even think about her when she is not around, and now all of your thoughts seem to be getting more and more romantic. You want more than anything to make her become more than just a friend, you just don’t want to also risk losing her as a friend. Seems like you are kind of stuck in a tough spot, wouldn’t you say?

Now, some people will tell you that the best thing that you can do is to just keep things the way that they are. But, it’s really not all that healthy to have a female friend that you are in love with and keep all of those emotions locked inside.

And then, there are going to be some people that are going to tell you that you should just forget about her and move on. But, that is not going to leave you feeling satisfied.

Is there a way that you can make your best friend become your GIRLFRIEND?

Most men do not realize that they are slipping into the friend zone while it is happening. Then one day, they finally realize that this is exactly what has happened. Of course, the most obvious answer to this situation is to make sure that you never get there in the first place, but you are beyond that point right now.

Here are a couple of tips on how to get started turning your female friend into YOUR girlfriend:

1. She cannot keep seeing you as being that safe, male friend that she can run to when she needs emotional comfort.

If you keep on being that person to her, then she is NEVER going to want to risk doing a single thing that could hurt that dynamic that the two of you have. So, you have to be able to change the way that she sees you and the friendship. The best way to do this, is to slowly become a lot more distant to her. Don’t act cold, just don’t be there nearly as often and don’t let the conversations stray into topics that only friends would talk about.

2. You need to change the way that you behave with her.

Friends act different when they are with each other than they would with someone that they want to date. Friends just have that rapport where they feel like they can be who they are without getting embarrassed about anything. On the other hand, a woman is going to try to look her best and hide her flaws if it is a guy that she wants to date. And you should do the same. When you change your behavior, you are going to force a change in the way that she sees you.

3. You need to take action or just move on.

At some point, you have to face the possibility that she might reject you. If that is too much for you, then you really do need to just move on or suffer in silence until she runs off with some new guy and gets married or something. Anytime that you find yourself wanting to date someone, rejection is a possibility. However, her saying YES is also a possibility, so don’t think that it cannot be a good thing to take action.
