This girl I knew just moved back in town. I've always been attracted to her, but she's always had a boyfriend. And she moved last time she became single. Mucking up the works, is that she's my ex's ex-roommate, she's best friends with my ex's sister, and also, we've been friends for many years, and have many of the same friends. But she's back, and I am most definitely still attracted to her. I got her a part time job at my work, she's staying at my place right now till she moves into her new apartment. I'm on a real quick and narrow path to being friend-zoned.

So. How can I express that I'm into her, without it being awkward?

Make yourself scarce. Make it look like you got a life- go to the gym after work or take your laptop and do some net surfing at the library to kill time so you don't have to drive in rush hour going home from work. Heck, bring a friend to your apartment to hang out and have dinner.

 

You could still hang out with her, but I'd recommend that it's out somewhere public like coffee or whatnot. It'd be a lot closer to getting to know someone who's not living with you, you'll be removing that by not spending time with her in your home. Don't spend all of your lunch breaks with her at work either, make yourself scarce there too.

 

These are just suggestions I have for you to avoid being friend zoned. Be your charming self when you talk to her with the time you do have with her. Be engaging in letting her know you like her and invite her out to go do things with you. Just let the ball roll down from here, and see how things go from there. Good luck!
