A girl that has a boyfriend is already taken, which puts her off limits, regardless of how you feel about her, or how in love you are with her.

No matter how you slice it, she has a boyfriend.

This means that she is not emotionally available to you.

Irrespective of whether you know this girl, and get along with her, this isn’t sufficient enough to draw a conclusion that she likes you.

It’s so easy to convince yourself that she likes you when she is complaining to you about her boyfriend from time to time, or frequently.

You are hearing it all from her, from insults hurled at her boyfriend, to vows that she is going to leave him.

All of this leads you to believe that she isn’t happy with her boyfriend.

Every time she speaks poorly of her boyfriend, you are further convinced that you have a chance with her.

After all, she is confiding in you with all this information about her boyfriend, and is repeatedly complimenting you for how great of a friend you are.

Although she complains about her boyfriend to you, this has no bearing on whether she is going to leave him.

Girls are known to vent about a boyfriend to a friend, whether it be a girl friend or guy friend.

As long as she is comfortable with the friend, she won’t hesitate to complain about her boyfriend to said friend.

This doesn’t mean that she likes the guy friend romantically.

She complains to him in a similar fashion as she does with any of her girl friends.

She vents.

That is all that it is.

The harsh truth is that no matter how much she complains about her boyfriend, she is in love with him, and has no intention of leaving him.

Using you to vent about her boyfriend is all there is to this, and nothing more.

Being that you are in love with this girl, it isn’t easy to accept that all you are is a guy friend to her.

You swear that she has sent romantic signs your way.

She has given you compliments and stared at you in the past, several times.

Don’t misread any of this as signs of romantic interest.

She gives compliments to a bevy of people, including her guy friends.

It’s not a big deal to her when she compliments a guy.

When she has stared at you in the past, she was lost in thought, or daydreaming about someone else, possibly her boyfriend.

You are not the only one she has stared at in this vain.

She has done it to her guy friends, and girl friends.

Whenever she gets lost in thoughts, or daydreams, she stares at whoever is in her vicinity.

This means that when she stares at you, you are no different from anyone else in her friend circle that she has done this to in the past.

People in romantic relationships have moments where they give off signs that are easily misconstrued as ones of interest.

Those who are the most susceptible to read these as signs of romantic interest, are those in their social circle who are already interested in them.

You already love her, and to this end, it is natural for you to look to any behavior that remotely signals that she is interested in you, as a sign that she is.

She isn’t romantically interested in you.

The sooner you stop fantasizing about whether she is in love with you, the sooner you come back to reality.
