So there's this girl I met a while ago, and when I first met her she had a boyfriend. We got on well together and became good friends, and I realised I kinda liked her. Obviously I kept my distance because of the boyfriend, so it was fine in that regard and we continued being friends. She broke up with her boyfriend after a while, and I was there ago. I gave it a while for her to get over it, as I remember what it was like when I broke up with someone after going out with them for a similar length of time.
Fast forward to now, she must know I like her, because I told her by text late at night once. Lately (she's moved house into the uni town) we've been doing more stuff together like going for dinner and bowling etc. So I text her after one of these very recently asking if we were just going to be friends and she said yes, and that we were good friends. Obviously I'm kinda annoyed about this, because while I value our friendship greatly, and it took a lot for me to tell her I like her in risk of jeopardising our friendship (this was a while ago so it didn't), I just thought there was a possibility of it going further, but evidently she doesn't.
This isn't a whingey post where I'm blaming her after I was nice to her a few times, I accept her decision but I want to get over it. I've got a great friendship with her, and I don't want this ruined, but I know that it will affect me should she get a boyfriend in the future etc. I really want to stay friends with her because she's the girl I've got on most with in my life, but I'll need to not let my obvious further like of her affect our friendship. How do you think I can get over this?
I always thought the "friendzone" was a load of rubbish, but now I've apparently found my way into it :holmes:

Eventually broke up with boyfriend, I let her get over it.
Become really good friends with her and do stuff like bowling/dinner etc.
