Let me start by saying I'm a divorced dad of 2 children(10 and 7) and I'm 42. The female friend I like is a divorced mom of 2 kids (6 and 1) and she's 29. I've know her for 4 years but just two months ago we started doing more things together. Over the past two months as families we've hung out over 10 times. By ourselves we've been out just once. We've kissed only once but every other time it's been a passionate hug. I'm at the point now where I want to take our friendship to to another level and start a relationship. The problem is I don't know what to say to her. I'm also afraid if I ask her she'll say no and that will be the end of our friendship.

Just keep on building what you have. Even though you've known her for four years, only recently have you started becoming closer by merging your families. Keep doing what you're doing, by hanging out together more often, but maybe try to mix it up and do different things. Too early for a routine, try to see each other in different scenarios to see different sides of your personalities.

Do you go out just the two of you? If not, maybe you should try it! Get a babysitter each.

Ask her to a movie and see if u guys hold hands..
Create that perfect moment that you look into eachother's eyes... U know!

It's okay if she says no, but just be honest with her, and flat out ask her, like this (If you want to be somewhere private.) "Want to go out to dinner this friday/saterday night?" Or "There's this new restuarant I've been wanting to go to, want to come with me?" Then, you're not too obvious, but she kind of gets the hint, then take your relationship from there. PokeXpert
