Stop complimenting her. But show interest in her by finding out what her likes and dislikes are. Being a good listener and enjoying what she has to say will please her. Women don't want their special guy to be only smitten by their looks. They also want their guy to love the person they are within. And you don't want to put her on some pedestal. You want both of you to feel comfortable around each other, like being two peas in a pod.

Yeah take her off a pedestal. Stop thinking of her as your 'special girl' because maybe she doesn't feel the same way about you. Just be cool with her, keep it very very real, and don't make her out to be something she isn't. Oh, and never fall in love. At least not until she does first

First of all, dont go jumping the gun. Keep it simple and casual, If you fall in love and start getting too pushy or clingy, she's going to run the other direction. If she feels any affection for you, she'll eventually show it. But again, dont get dillusions of granduer until she shows signs of anything further than just friendship. Either it will happen or not, but at least you are prepared if she isnt interested in anything further.

Ask her questions about herself (not creepy or too personal, but more along the lines of "what's your favorite food?" or "do you like winter or summer better?") People love to talk about themselves. Also, ask her advice about something, or ask her for a small favor. "Would you help me pick out a birthday card for my sister?"

Hello, I love you, won't you tell me your name?"

You probably have no idea what I'm on about Markus. It's a Doors song.

Just be yourself, enjoy her company, let things evolve naturally.
No need to be making grand statements.

And if that doesn't work; date someone else. My hubby and I were best friends for a year. He wanted to date, I didn't. So we remained best friends. Hubby got tired of waiting around and started dating. That is when I got jealous realized DOH! I loved him.

REPLY: Continue to pay compliments , but dont overdo it otherwise she might look upon you as being desperate in some way. Whatever you say or do for her, be sure its genuine and just be a good friend to her. She will appreciate it alot.

If you get a favorable response with that, go on to the second line of the song.

"Hello, I love you, Let me jump in your game."

But, chances are, since you're not Jim Morrison, she will probably kick you in the nuts.

Then you are back to square one and the rest of the song will become real personal.

"She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked and her legs are long
When she moves my brain screams out this song

Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see you fool ?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel ?"
