How can a girl get out of the friend zone?
No, they always go out with a group of friends.
I suggest that your friend should plan a one-on-one outing with the guy, maybe a movie or dinner, and make it clear that it's a date. If the guy is receptive and interested in her, then she can try to take things further. If he's not interested, it's important for her to respect that and move on.
