TITLE: Making the transistion from friends to >friends
POST: Sorry, awful cliche question but I could do with some advice. There is a girl that I'm good friends with but do like a lot and would like to try moving it on but I'm pretty awkward when it comes to this. 

So without saying, "can we be more?" How do I get there, or suggest it? So how do I hug her more, get more kinda comfortable with her... I think that's my problem, I'm bad at the small scale physical stuff, so any tips or techniques? 

I'm not stuck in the friend zone that I know of or anything, I just need some way of moving it up a notch. 

I'm a 17 year old male in the UK for what it's worth. Thankyou in advance
TL;DR: 
how do you come off as more of a relationship candidate without being weird? Want to become more than friends with friend but I'm bad with asking/forcing hugs and shizz
