So I have known her for 5 years now. I really like her, I just really do! The only problem is she is dating another guy right now. However, based off with how her last 2 boyfriends went it's only a matter of time until they break up. She seems to go out with these guys who turn out to be complete assholes. I really like her! So I just want what's best for her. However, how do I go about making a move? I am pretty sure she knows I like her, because I have told her some years before. However, we do talk quite a bit. We hung out last year after she broke up with boyfriend #2. We went to a baseball game with each other. She hates baseball, I love baseball. I joke about how I'm going to drag her to another game this season. haha But yeah. Do you think I will just be stuck in this friendzone forever with her? We don't see each other often since I live about 100 miles away for school. We are both 23. I'm 99.9% sure she views our friendship in high regards.
I trust you guys. So this is why I am asking this here
From your op, you seem to have a good heart. In particular, it sounds like this girl is in your heart and that you care about her. However, does she currently feel the same way about you? Is it possible for you to value and care for this person in a platonic way? If a platonic friendship will not do, then the advice offered by some of the posters so far, such as talking to her about how you feel and/or respectfully distancing yourself from the friendship (or even ending it on amicable terms), may be a wise course to consider.
With that said, I hope that this girl appreciates your friendship. However, given that you two are friends, and she is dating someone else, why not put yourself out there, date other girls, and gain more experience?
