Trying to date a friend/single mother, need advice on how to make a move, help please?

I am attracted to a good friend. She is a single mother and I know and get on well with her kids.





I think she just sees me as a friend, and may even think I am gay because I am single and haven't tried anything yet! I have been trying to be close to her over Christmas - presents for her and the kids etc. I kissed her cheek and really hugged her upon seeing her at Christmas and before going home.





I am asking to maybe watch a DVD with her when the kids are asleep one night. I want to know how to make a move and for her to respond.





It is difficult to know how our friendship would be if she really doesn't want me to be closer than a friend - but I have to try!





Also should we have a drink before I try? She is a lot more happier and relaxed when she's had a few drinks, as am I.





I would appreciate any help/advice/tips/suggestions. Thanks!Trying to date a friend/single mother, need advice on how to make a move, help please?
To be honest you sound like a really nice guy. Not many guys these days have feelings for women..... wen ur at her house wen the kids are asleep i would get a really sooky love movie. try to get one that would make her cry then give her cuddles. if it seems like she accepts the cuddles try to get onto her! If shes ok with that then gratz. if not then you should tell her that you really like her. Or if u dont wana watch movies just keep complimenting her especially on her kids. like say they are well raised and everytime u see her say she looks beautiful. hope it works out good luckTrying to date a friend/single mother, need advice on how to make a move, help please?
I appreciate it is just a word or two, but, 'to make a move'........!





Sorry, it just tastes of so much ''planning'', like a set of military manoeuvres.





Personally, I would suggest that you need to do a bit more talking with her if, for example, she might be thinking you are possibly gay.





But then, you are closer to the situation and you have a certain feel for it.........





Talk, more talk, is my suggestion. But then, maybe others would see it different.





Seasons Greeting.


Sash.
I just think you should just go ahead %26amp; say wat u nid to say...whatever it is u hav in mind. Just make sure that ur really into her bec single moms have been through a lot. U shldnt drnk b4 u talk to her as sometimes it sends a wrong signal.





I just hope ur looking into the big picture rather than acting on impulse. Good Luck.
just ask her out for a cup of coffee and a piece of pie. and talk to her feel her out ask her if she would like to get together more often
see if she can get a baby sitter and take her the cinema she could prob do with a night out.
DON';T DO IT! You have described a disaster just waiting to happen. A single mother and a friend!? Stay very far away.
Can't help. I have a policy on not dating women with kids. Too much drama.
just tell her
face it youre gay
