How do you get out of the friend zone with a guy?

I have a guy friend who I’ve grown very close to in the past several months. I think in the beginning he might have been interested in me, but I might have made myself too available and he backed off. I did the same and focused on just getting to know him as a friend.

Now we are the kind of friends who knows what the other is going to say before they even say it. We can talk about everything and laugh all the time. We even mirror behavior. In spite of all that, he hasn’t made a move and now I’m wondering if we are stuck in the friend zone. I feel like something is holding him back. Something he is not sure of.

He’s met a couple of my friends but not many, but I think he wants to because he has suggested things where he could meet them. Not trying to keep them away, just hasn’t happened yet. Working to change that, but I am wondering what else can I do to show my interest? Afraid of being too direct after he backed off the first time.

Answer #1

flirt with him alittlle not to much but just enough for him to notice then ask him if he wants to hang out more often ask him if his day was good but dont ask him what he did just ask him if anything exciting the ask for help with home work or something. thats all i can do to help.
