So this girl is a family friend, I get to see her about 5 or so times a year. We've been going on vacation with our families including a couple others every year. I recently turned 18(She's 18 too) and I have a car so, last day we were staying I asked her out in person and she said "Yea, sure". I casually text her, and the second time I do I ask if she's free this week. She doesn't text back, so the day after I text her telling her I wan't to be straight up and not waste each others time because she's got me confused and that all I wanted to do was hang out with her since I barely get to see her, and I wanted her to let me know. So 4 days later she responds saying this She replied saying "Hey I'm sorry I never replied I just didn't know what to say. Honestly your very nice I just think of you as a family friend that's all. Hope everything can stay as cool as it was and has been. Probably plan a kick back with everyone soon." So, I preceded to text her saying "Of course it can, I didn't mean it like that when I wanted to kick it with you lol. Just wanted to clear up some confusion and I would hate to make you feel uncomfortable. I appreciate the reply and I'm glad we can still be able to talk :)" and she texts me saying "Okay I'm glad and yes we will all kick it soon" So I basically got friend zoned and I'm trying to get out of it. I was thinking maybe wait 2 years, she gets older and try again. I basically want to know how I can get out of the friendzone and what do I do when I see her, should I text her?

-Also my cousin who is very close with her told me that she isn't really looking for a boyfriend(even though all I wanted to do was hang out/go somewhere nice to eat) also she is really shy.
