If Rejected, Can Still Be Friends??

[AlexanderTheGreat]

I'm really into this girl. We are good friends and we flirt and practically chat and text all the time, so much that we run out of things to talk about. I wanna ask her out but I don't want her to reject me. And if she does it might be awkward if we stay friends. I just need some advice and help.
Afankooo :D

Well, it sounds like she might like you too, but that's not an absolute certainty. If you want to ask her out, do it very simply--ask her if she'd like to go on a date with you, rather than asking her straight out to be "exclusive" with you or to "go steady." When you do that, be sure to know your details--the time, place, how you're getting there/how she's getting there, etc. I know you'll be nervous, but do your best to just come out and ask her once you've got the details all figured out, such as asking if she'd like to go to a movie with you or something like that. If she says no, then she says no, and yeah, it will be awkward for a little while. But, if you both kind of talk about it, and agree to just move on, things really do get easier after a little time passes. I've been rejected before, and it was awkward for a few days, maybe a week or so, but we both just kind of agreed to move on and that's what we did. I wish you the best of luck and hope that things turn out well for you, and know that we're all here if you need us!

Honestly, just cause you two chat and text a lot doesn't mean she likes you too. She might also consider you a good friend.


Just know, that if you risk asking her out. She might feel way to awkward to be around you. It could risk your friendship.

Just ask her casually, just ask "Hey would you wanna go out sometime?". If she says no, don't freak out about it, just say "Oh, ok, well could we still be friends?". And then just act like nothing happened. It will be just as awkward for you, as it would be for her.

You'll never know unless you try!
And even if she says no, girls are great at staying friends regardless of those situations, it's usually the guy that has a hard time.

This is a great answer.

You both seem to really like each other, so there's a good change she would be willing to be in a relationship. If not, then she would most likely still remain friends with you. I don't think she would throw away the friendship over something like that.

So yeah, give it a try.

Good luck. :)

even if she says no, you can still be friends, if you are already good friends now then i dont see why it would change.
im still great friends with my past girlfriend

i mean, yeah. you surely can still be friends, if you want to. i feel like it's more of a elementary school thing that when someone likes another person, they aren't friends anymore.
