this is what i did with my g/f. i asked her if she was doing anything one weekend, and she said no. i said, "wanna go out?" to which she replied yes, and i told her we would just go as friends. she DID have a boyfriend which i didnt know about, but we had a great time anyway. later, she broke up with him, and she realized i cared for her, and we started dating more. i really wasnt interested in dating her when she had a b/f, i just wanted to hang out with her because she was cool, but now we are dating. anyway, good luck finding out.
