Need as much advice as possible!

Recently, there has been this girl that I have been stressing over because I'm trying to figure out if she likes me.

the situation between us: we have been friends for a few years and have a lot in common. We both ride and show horses, riding and training with the same person and show together all the time. I asked her to prom this year and ended up falling for her really hard and have a huge crush on her.

This is girl is gorgeous and amazing all in all. I'm not the best looking guy but I'm not the worst either.

There re have been a few things that I think have been flirting but it's hard to really tell. She holds her emotions back a lot and always seems happy. We joke around with each other a lot. Recently though it seems she brings up relationships more than usual. And I mean every time we talk that's one of the first topics. Idk if this is her hinting at something but it could be.

I have a strong friendship with her and don't want to ruin it, yet this girl has really stolen my heart. Any ideas on how to handle this? I'm shy about this stuff because I've been rejected all my life. Any tips or advice on how to ask her out or see if she likes me is appreciated.

Girls especially: would you be against dating a friend? Would you want them to make the first move?

Why don't you just ask her? There's no harm in that. Even if she doesn't like you, it sounds like you're always going to have a great friend

I've done before with other girls and it ends the same way. Strained and awkward relationships. We compete together so much that I don't want to make it too weird.

If you don't want to make it weird, then maybe don't attempt a relationship with her? It's a big plunge. I think girls are more forgiving than you think though. She'd probably just be flattered that you like her.

You ain't got nothing to lose.

I'd say that the friendship was "ruined" the moment you fell for her - I used the " " for ruined to suggest that it's not necessarily a bad thing, but just the fact that the type of relationship between the two of you has changed, at least from your point of view. As it was mentioned, even if she doesn't feel the same way, it doesn't mean all is lost!
And I know it's sometimes hard to be in love with a good friend. The relationship becomes a struggle, and by asking her out - regardless of her accepting or refusing - you'll put an end to this struggle.

I guess you have to ask in a general way - maybe suggest something and see here reaction but if she holds here emotions back then maybe she does not feel ready for a relationship.

Hey, I personally think that she is trying to get you to ask her questions or hint at that you like her. Are you going to prom with her and how eager was she for it?:yeah:
