I patiently worked my way up the ladder for two years and ended up marrying one of my best friends. It can be done, but like distance running, it has to be done one brick at a time.

His hand/finger positioning makes me think this pic is NSFW
Don't worry. Her belly hangs down and shields everything.
rojo -this is the equivalent of feminist drivel written to appeal to the average male.its complete nonsense - nothing in real life is as clear. surprises me how many guys who are distance runners feel they are at a disadvantage with women because of their looks, being in shape seems to help more than it hurts. the current generation of young 20 somethings seem pretty receptive imo -

OP,
Please read this. This explains it perfectly:
http://www.laddertheory.com/You need to immediately ask her out so you can figure out whether you are wasting your time.
laddertheory.com is one of the all-time greatest websites. Men have one ladder and rank women 0 to 10 on it.
Women have two ladders. One is the friendship ladder and one is "The real ladder." You are instantly put on one or the other. In theory, those high on the friendship ladder could jump to the other real hook-up ladder, but the fall is unsuccessful is incredibly painful. Also there are no confirmed cases that it's ever been done before.
Good luck.
Woah I did not post that. I wont post a link in case she comes on this sight.
And yes, I like the 1 brick at a time idea. Then what do I do just pop the question randomly one day?

I have wanted to officially ask her out for about 6 months, but was trying to get a sense of how she felt first.
Just this weekend she puts a picture of the two of us as her profile picture, and then a different one as her cover picture. Is this my green light?
You just became her BFF. haha.

Ok forget the pic but please get off the internet and go and bang her. You can make it bro
Noooo! Effing friendzone! Tips for getting out of that dangerous graveyard??
Stop overthinking it man. Here's a few options.
Just man up and tell her your interest and find out where she stands. If she is interested and you miss your window of opportunity then she may move on. At some point your situation will change where you won't be able to hangout with her easily or she will meet someone new or whatever.
You could also mention the facebook pics to one of her friends to see what insight she can give. Her friends (assuming they don't hate you) will be blunt if she's not interested.
Whatever you do, do it now. Don't waste anymore time waiting. It's too high risk-low reward. The risk being that you miss out on opportunities to meet other suitable girls or you blow them off hoping that things will work out with this girl. Well once college is over it isn't as easy to meet new girls. Oh and if she is at all hesitant on dating but still wants to hangout then you know where you stand. Don't waste years hoping it will eventually pan out. It's a fantasy world.
Maybe the OP should stop putting his friends in the GF zone.
So what do you guys think about this plan?
I usually cool down with her after her 5k as I am already finished for the day (Ill run 8/15). If she has a good race this weekend, she will be in a good mood. We cool down together and I break the news to her and see where she stands. I wont have to awkwardly stare her in the eyes and face rejection if thats the case. Ill just make the cool down pace miserably hard.
Opinions?

Ignore all the other posters and just ask her out. If she says no, then you move on and at least have closure. It all boils down to the fact you are insecure and care what she thinks....when in reality, it doesn't matter. I have started dating chicks that I was friends with for several years. The sex was better than ever due to the sexual tension that had built up.Give'er.

Quality trolling. Congrats!

You are in an assumed relationship with her already. You both have assumed the role of social partners with out verbalizing it. Ask any of your friends if they think you two are dating and the answer will be " Of course why wouldn't I"

I used to really slow moving with girls I liked because I wanted to know for sure if they felt the same before I asked them out. Looking back, I have realized that if a girl ever finds reasons to hang out with just you (i.e.. cool down), she is probably interested in you. If she flirts even a little bit she is definitely interested. FYI: Talking to people years after high school, I found out that every girl I had a crush on had a crush on me too, but I was too much of a wuss to take a chance.
You don't have to straight up ask her if she likes you. That could be awkward especially if you are friends. Just ask her to do some activity that is clearly a date.
Okay I'll ask her on an official date. But just curious why everyone thinks the cool down idea is so unmanly?
And yeah maybe Im a little insecure...Because I like this chick! I dont want to screw it up because I feel like we have something good about to start.
