We've all come across this problem... You spend time with your *best mate of the opposite sex* and then you fall in love :P.. so sweet

Well telling her is actually quite easy.. Yes it is more easier said then done but with these simple tips your sure to catch a big one...

Step 1: Where Your at With This Girl/boy

Ok well the most obvious question is when u flirt does he/she flirt back with u?

If so its easy.. if they dont not so easy..

Now i know this instructable is about *how to tell a friend u like them* but the relationship and feeling must be strong in order for this to work

Body language: the main conversation tool is body language.. More of the conversation is through your body than your verbal communication... So be very conscious of the way each body position is posed.. Im not telling u to be worried about your body language because that looks funny :P

Ok so when your around this person you must use open and relaxed stances and expressions.

A nice calm face as the one shown below will prove to be worth while... Note the next few pictures
Palms slightly faceing outwards provide a more safer and open feeling then the crossed arms pictured afterwards.

Here are a few body language links

Step 2: Practice and Practise and No More Practice!!!!!!

Ok theres 2 options for practise

A. Practise heaps
B. Dont practise
C. Practise a little but not too muh.

C would be correct.. And yes i did say 2 answers i was tricking you :P

Ok so now you should have your body language skills on level. So now the verbal side.. Remember body language is most of the conversation not all of it.

Now most girls (depending on age and personal interests wont wont the romantic scene)

They'll want something they can easily say yes to and that sounds fun..
Now think about what your going to say but dont write it on your hand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. it looks weird when your trying to talk to your girl but your talking to your hand!!!
2. It should mainly come from the heart!
3. You cant use half your body language when she doesnt see your face or your hands.. By looking down you show an embarrased or nervous expression...!!!!!

Ok so think about what your going to say (theres no certain way to ask a girl out because there all diffrent)

Ill stick some good ideas for dates towards the end..
Don't always just say hey wanna go out?
Try saying somehting like "hey you wanna go to a movie this weekend?"

Note the picture of the pimp face :P

Step 3: The Date!!!!!!!

Remember your body language.. After you ask her out its not over!!!!!

Some of the best places to go are:

The movies (most recommended first date!!! you dont have to talk as much because your watching a movie)
Bowling
Rock climbing (something sporty)

Now if your the man you gotta be thoughtful ok.. Girls dont really like the romantic scene but they enjoy the kindness..
For instance if your going to the movies you buy her ticket for her so you both can just walk in!!!!

Ok now most of this step is up to you!!! I cant say what your girlfriend/boyfriend will like you must do this yourself..

All i can say is the three steps for *Telling a Friend You Like Them*
A. Remember your body language its important and can be used powerfully
B. Practice your words a little but not too much
C. Choose a place your girl/boy will like. And BE KIND!!!!!!

Now go forth and use these skills wisely.. Feel free to chat and comment about your situation and ill help out ;P

And God Bless
