I bet when she asked if you were 'single', you said 'YES' with your eyes wide open. You would have favored better if you said 'What's it to you?' or 'Nice pickup line but I'm not going home with you tonight.'
You gotta be cocky but funny. Not arrogant. Don't come off as a nice guy, or desperate. Even in casual talk, ask her for her opinion on certain issues, views and such, and tease her about it. And if she gets feisty and argues to back herself up, challenge it. See how far she goes to stand for herself. Then give her credit for it, unless you think she's nuts.
So she passed you off to her best friend. Well, you interested in her best friend? NO? Then forget about her best friend. 'Would you like to meet her?' ---> Shoulda said 'No thanks' and then started chatting with this girl you wanted for 3-5 minutes. Then you should have said 'I'm getting back to my friends, cya' (you walk away for a bit, then come back to her) 'Hey, I need your number. Thanks - here I'll send you a text for the exchange so you can call me sometime later. Bye'
The moral here is this - although you have interest in her, she STARTS OFF IN YOUR FRIEND ZONE. And if she wants a relationship with you, she's gotta prove to be a girlfriend catch. You understand? Reverse the roles - confident men pick the girl they want, but she HAS TO BE quality. You have standards to uphold and you're very selective. If she fails the cut, she's banished to the friend zone.
She doesn't call the shots - you do. And if it just so turns out that she already has a boyfriend, then she is instantly banned to the friend zone. I'll use her to get with an attractive friend of hers.
Here's the simple logic to figure things out - the girl you have interest in, start off casually, then escalate it with flirting. Use humor, do unpredictable things, like walk away when she's trying to tease you back. Anyone else you're NOT interested in, such as her friends - be casual and NICE to them. You're only nice to the girl you're with if she's being nice to you. 50/50 in a relationship.

Girls are too scared to ask guys out, so because the girl can't tell you she likes you she has her friend (your mutual friend) do it. Your mutual friend wants her girl to get laid, so she agrees.
It means she greatly appreciates your company and just thought you and her friend would hit it off. I don't know about your society, but where I live, if you really like a guy (in a strictly platonic, 'I think you are an outstanding person' kind of way) than you'd try to fix him up with a girl you think the best of as well- this being your best friend.
Or, perhaps her friend likes you and is too shy to ask you herself, so this girl is doing it for her...
Either way, you can't lose anything if you two just go out together, and you never know, you might even be surprised! ^_^
you're in the friend zone... she thinks you're awesome, but doesn't consider dating you... and her best friend is like her biggest protege, she would only set her up with someone who is really nice and who, in her opinion, is a really amazing guy.
So she thinks you're great, but doesn't see you as boyfriend material...
There's also the possibility of her best friend liking you. And so, even though she'd be attracted to you, her friend may have "called you first"...
it really depends...how old is this girl? and how old are you? and how old is the best friend?
It tells me that she thinks you are someone who might be a hit with her best friend, but she does not want to date you herself. Some people are not very good matchmakers, so who knows how good a match you and her friend will be, but I think it is great when friends look out for each other and try and make introductions for dating. I have a friend who met her L/T boyfriend from exactly this scenario, well except the friend who matched them is married and obviously not in any danger of possibly dating the guy herself.

it means that she probably likes you but maybe her friend also likes you so she is putting her friend 1st. It could also mean that she just likes you as a friend and that she thinks you and her friend would make a great couple. girls do this because we want out friends to be happy we hate seeing them lonely. Don't take this as a bad thing if you don't like her friend tell her , and if you like her than tell her that too so she knows not to hook you up with anybody else.
The same reason a guy will set up a girl with his best friend, the best friend either asked him to or the guy decided to take on the role of hooking two single people up together. Clearly you should have told her what you felt about her, because I'm sure she didn't know. Because she tried to hook her friend up with you I'm thinking she's not that into you or is emotionally unavailable. If she did like you I'm sure her best friend would know, thus wouldn't try to hook up with you.
her friend probably asked her to, called you first, or the girl you like might have been trying to see whether or not you liked her and whether you would agree to go out on a date with a friend of hers rather than her because A) she likes you or B) she's just curious. one of those (PROBABLY). that, or she just thinks of you asa nice guy worthy for her best friend, but just a friend to herself.
I disagree with some of the comments. One of my best friends set one of our friends up with a guy and they had a short relationship. Later she revealed that she had a huge crush on him before setting them up. I've done the same thing a couple of times, trying to set some of my friends up with guys I'm a little interested in. I don't know why we do this. I guess it's just easier not getting involved
Because we want our friends to be happy and think that the two would be good together, and we aren't interested in the guy we are setting them up with.
Her friend is probably ugly and doesn't get guys much. So she's pulling the bait and switch on you. But I don't blame her, she's just helping out a friend! And you can be a good sport and help her out as well!
she sees you as a great guy and worthy of her friend which means she sees good things in you. unfortunatly, she probably doesn't think of you as boyfriend material to her. sorry bro
Unfortunately, this is a HUGE sign that she only sees you as a friend.
Either flirt with her, make some sort of connection, then ask her out
OR
Move on, and see if she has any hot friends.girls look out for girls, especially friends...same applies to guys...she probably sees you as a friend or a guinea pig for how you are around women
they have ulterior motives. it is not always benevolent
well..as per my opinion..either she has some kindda problem that's y she can't be with you but wanna be close to you through her best friend or your not her type but she likes you.she don't want you but don't wanna lose you...
There are several answers. One, the girl's friend has a crush on you. Two, the girl's friend just got dumped and she's on the prowl for something new or three, your friend thinks you would be compatible with the girl.
She's not interested in you. She's either A) trying to get you to move on (B) her friend likes you and she's trying to do her a favor
1. She's not interested in you
2. Her friend is and told her thatHer best friend either wanted her to ask you or she likes you and just wanted you to say that I like someone else and you should tell her you like her.
