Search Results: getting out of the friend zone

We were acquaintances in high school then we went to the same university this year and ever since move in about 4 weeks ago we see each other almost everyday. In my opinion, she is either attracted to me or I am very deep in the friend zone. She usually texts me first, invites me to go with her to different events and socials, and we tease each other a bit. She is also VERY extrovert and social, so I don't know if maybe she just acts like this around everyone. We do hang out a lot though, and go to the gym together.

*I don't know how to explain it, but we she kind invites me to go to a lot of things with her, even when she is hanging out with her girlfriends at night. Or a few days ago she took me to a potluck were people she went to a camp with were getting together. She even mentioned a dance thing that my college is having, and said we need to go together, and I need to ask her. Am I her wing man or is she interested?

What is the best way to find out if a girl likes you?

We went to high school together for 4 years, and I got to know her a little bit better my senior year but we were still "acquaintances." I always admired her a lot for who she was as a person. But I always just saw her as a friend. Well I moved in on Sunday, and she sent me a text asking to meet up for dinner. So we did, and we checked out the campus for a few hours before meeting up with someone else. Well since that, we ended up hanging out almost everyday, usually initiated by her. Although she was really growing on me, I figured she just wanted to be friends. Then when eating dinner Thursday her and her friend were messing around and I think I heard her mutter "he friend zoned me." I don't know what to think of this. So here is my question, how should I go about this.

In my opinion option A is safe and boring. Option B sounds smart, but this girl is constantly getting chased by boys. I don't want to miss my opportunity, and I don't want her to lose interest and pull away. Option C is bold and risky. So what do you guys think?

We went to high school together for 4 years, and I got to know her a little bit better my senior year but we were still "acquaintances." I always admired her a lot for who she was as a person. Amazing personality, smart, hardworking, pretty, etc. But I always just saw her as a friend. Well I moved in on Sunday, and she sent me a text asking to meet up for dinner. So we did, and we checked out the campus for a few hours before meeting up with someone else. The next day she texted what are you up to. I was getting a ticket and she came along for an hour before I left to get dinner with my parents. We meet up at a festival that night, 3 of us (her and her friend, we all know each other), and later hung out in her dorm and mine, then hers. Then her friend left at around 1 am and she said want to go back to your dorm. So we split off just me and her to my dorm and talked until 2 am (my roommate came out to talk to us too). The next night she texted me lets play pool. We did that for a few hours. I think she was texting another guy and she decided to leave at 12:30 am, early for her. Then Thursday we met up for dinner again, initiated by her, and eventually got into a big group. So, I have spent over 15 hours with her this week, and half the time its just me and her. I have to say, even though I saw her as a friend before, I am really starting to like her. We have just talked and I haven't really made a move, mainly because I am surprised she keeps hanging out with me (there are probably a few boys chasing her right now, like the one that was texting her). I don't know if she feels the same way, but here is my plan. I will ask her to meet up for dinner again tomorrow and while we are eating, at some point I will just casually bring it to the table. "Are we in the friend zone?" And I will tell her I like her a lot. If she says yeah we are in the friend zone I'll just be like "sweet, I like hanging out with you. Just wanted to make sure we were on the same page." If she likes me, then I will spill it out that I like her too. What do you guys think? Is it good to be straightforward and bring it to the table? I never really had a girlfriend in high school so I am inexperienced.
