    In the spirit of harebrained schemes, drag has a suggestion:

    Tell the guys you have a crush on her, you want to ask her out, and you’re calling dibs. And then don’t. Tell her about the plan in advance so there are no misunderstandings with her. But let them think they’re upholding the “bro code” by not putting the moves on her.

    If she wants to get in on the scheme, she can turn them down by explaining she already has a crush on you and can’t see herself with anyone else. And both of you should be absolutely adamant that the guys must absolutely not tell your “crush” your “true feelings”. You’re just too nervous, and you’d see any reveal of your secret as a breach of trust.

    It’s called “The Mordecai”.

      Is drag suggesting that someone should start a friendship with a lie? That’s not a good foundation for a real friendship. That’s quite manipulative and makes me not want to be drag’s friend.
