How do I become better friends with someone?

I'm a guy, she's a girl (if that makes a difference, tell me if it does). Well I talk to her a lot to make our friendship better, stronger. But after that I never feel like it does anything. I'm a really funny guy and I make her laugh a lot, but after that it just feels like nothing happened. I also kind of have a crush on her. So I just want to be really good friends and get to know I lot about her before I try anything. I've tried a lot of things, but nothing happens. So, how do I become better friends with her?How do I become better friends with someone?
so i just read a whole book on this stuff and im currently writing a paper on it..





this is all from FRIENDSHIP FACTOR by alan loy mcginnes:





ways to deepen your relationships:


1.cultivate transperancy - we like ppl who reveal themselves to us


2. dare to talk about your affection - dont freak her out though


3. learn the gestures of love - give gifts, touch, love is a verb


4. create space in a friendship- friends give you roots for comfort and wings for freedom.


5. the interested are interesting - be a good listener and make plenty of eye contact!


6. go easy on criticism and when you compliment someone, be sincere.


7. talk freely about your feelings


8. when you get in fights, talk about how you feel... dont go off with ';i hate when you do this'; pointing fingers = no no


9. be open with them, and show that you care!


10. be yourself and dont go like a robot and these little guidelines.. love a lot!!





oh and harry on harry and sally said that ';men and women cant ever be friends'; i think that's not true.. read this book (friendship factor) and you will see why.. its a short easy to read book!





hope this helps! sorry so long!How do I become better friends with someone?
Talk talk talk talk talk to her more.
Okay, here's the thing: the reason she's so ';buddy buddy'; with this other guy is because she knows him and feels comfortable with him.


You need to open up and start talking to her and asking her questions. Show her you're interested in what she's talking about. Try to find some common interests.


Pretty soon, you'll also be the one she's yelling ';hi'; to and hugging ... and who knows, it may just turn into a better friendship. :)


Good luck. Hope this helps.
try wering something she will notice and just try to fit in with what she and her friends are talking about
go out with her... and im not refering to ';going out'; i just mean hang out with her and watch movies or whatevr
To be honest i am like you i got a friend who i wana be close friends with and i am and i only known her a month and you wana know what i did? i was myself thats all, im a helpful caring kinda guy, i make her laugh like u do with urs and i let her know that im always there for her whenever she has a problem and that i will try help her in anyway i can and its the truth i will and within this month i am one of her closest friends and she has told me stuff she hasnt told her best friend of 4 years, just be yourself and be there for her when she needs you, let her know that because sometimes they need to hear it and she will respect the fact she can trust you with alot and thats how better friendships are formed, good luck mate.
ASK HER OUT!


LOL
have u heard the term ';flirting';


Dee-Duh-Dee
just try to be nice to her give her complements
well there's this guy that i'm friends with, since 4th grade. we don't have a crush on each other by any means, but we're really good friends. making me laugh definitely helps. he's a skater. he's really smart and if he doesn't like something he won't go along with it cuz it seems ';cool.'; he's very easy to talk to and be around and he's just very trustworthy. I feel like i can talk to him about anything and he knows what's wrong without me having to say anything. make her comfortable around you!
