How to Get a Taken Girl Who Wants to Be More Than Just Friends
When you find yourself romantically attracted to a friend who's currently dating someone else and who's told you she likes you, you're in a very sticky situation. You need some serious patience and critical assessment of the situation. Waiting for her to come to the realization that she no longer wants to be in her current relationship is much more honorable than manipulating the situation to get the girl.

Figure out how long you're willing to wait for the girl. If she's currently in a relationship that she's happy with and hasn't mentioned leaving, you might be in an impossible situation. Determine how long you're willing to wait and stick to it.

Talk to her girlfriends and hint that you'd be interested in dating her if she were ever single. Say it in sincerity, not in a way that implies you want to hook up. If her friends know she's unhappy and think you'd be a good match, they'll tell her what you said.

Show you're a true friend and really be there for her. Girls form an emotional and mental attraction first, so prove to her that you're consistent and reliable. This is the basis for a good relationship. If she becomes single later, she'll naturally think of you because you two are already close and you know her well. She'll also notice the contrast in how you treat her versus her current beau.

Be patient. Don't jump the gun and press ahead. If you pursue her when she's taken, she may end up not trusting you because you don't value the commitment of being in a relationship. Give it time to all work out.

Tips & Warnings
Set your boundaries. Sometimes you can no longer continue to function at the level you have been when feelings get involved. If you need to pull back, do so. She'll be OK without you while you take care of your needs.
Don't tell the girl your feelings directly while she's in a relationship; now is not the time for you to pursue her.

This helps a lot. This girl says she is currently in a relationship and it has been this way for 1 year and 3 months. She hasn't showed any sign of their relationship weakening but I can tell that this is not her type of guy. This guy is more about looks than what really matters, and this girl is very sweet and has told me about what she thinks relationships should be like. We are very close friends, and I am determined to wait a year. Should I have hope, or give up and move on? -
