There's a way, you just gotta find what it is. Don't rely on others for support - it gets you nowhere. Especially with women.
Yup.
Walked down this road before. Felt really awkward. Hardest part is convincing yourself the other person is feeling the same way, but at some point you just gotta make that reach, same as any other relationship. I waited until I was pretty sure that no person in their right mind would look at us and
not think we were a couple. Then I went for it. Was shot down for a period of about 24 hours, until former friend realized the error of her ways and recanted her position that I could not love her like that. After 8 years of marriage and two children, I still remind her of that from time to time.
Best part of relationships that begin in the "friendzone" is you already know what it's like to treat that person as your friend, which is exactly the foundation of
every lasting relationship.
